Willie seemed to be in charge to me. I think they said he was the CEO of the company and I believe that if he goes another season of shows without Phil the others will follow.I don't disagree with your assessment of Phil, but I do disagree that the show will go on without him. Beyond any current contractual obligations, I mean. I believe the entire family would stand behind Phil and refuse to renew. Only possible exception might be Willie, as he's more money/publicity-oriented than the rest of them.
If they do leave A&E, expect it to be picked up by another network... with Phil. Bottom line: There's money to be made in them there swamps!

As I have said before, they may be wealthy but they are not stupid.
