Fort Worth<\/p>\n

A pair of \u201cDuck Dynasty\u201d stars are hosting a North Texas watch party for their new show.<\/p>\n

Jep and Jessica Robertson\u2019s new lifestyle series \u201cJep & Jess: Beyond the Bayou\u201d<\/a> sees the duo trade Louisiana for Texas as they develop a property at the Comanche Moon Ranch in Mingus, which is about 70 miles west of Fort Worth. The show premieres Aug. 13 on Great American Pure Flix and Aug. 15 on Great American Family and GFAM+.<\/p>\n

The watch party is free to attend and includes a screening of the series and an opportunity to meet the Robertsons. Representatives from Great American Media will also be in attendance.<\/p>\n

Barbecue restaurant Marty B\u2019s (2664 Farm-to-Market Road 407) in Bartonville is hosting the event from 6-8 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 9.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeyond the Bayou\u201d viewers will see the Robertsons build their new ranch and live like Texans, along with juggling parenting and grandparenting their big family.<\/p>\n

Production on the show began in early April and wrapped in mid-June. The Star-Telegram visited the set<\/a> in early June before filming finished and spoke with the Robertsons about the new show.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s gone by really fast, to be perfectly honest with you,\u201d Jep said on his back porch. \u201cIt\u2019s been a pleasure. We\u2019ve done a lot of TV things, I\u2019ve really enjoyed this one.\u201d<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfac In case you missed it: <\/p>\n

The Roberstsons have lived in Texas before, more specifically outside Austin for a handful of years after \u201cDuck Dynasty\u201d and \u201cJep & Jessica: Growing the Dynasty\u201d concluded.<\/p>\n

Things are a little different this time around due to the \u201cendless\u201d opportunities that the Comanche Moon Ranch development gives them, Jessica said. There\u2019s space to go hiking, cast fishing rods, shoot clay targets or even play pickleball at a court that was converted out of a tractor storage area.<\/p>\n

Another unique element to the property is the \u201cexotic wildlife\u201d hanging around, including a turkey or even an aoudad sheep that Jessica sometimes sees out her window. And, of course, there\u2019s all those dang reptiles Texas is known for.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, there\u2019s lots of rattlesnakes out here,\u201d Jessica said.<\/p>\n

\u201cJep & Jess: Beyond the Bayou\u201d premieres Aug. 13 on Great American Pure Flix and Aug. 15 on Great American Family and GFAM+.<\/p>\n
