Maybe Americans can now start to appreciate a famous quote by Bill Shankly who managed the English soccer team Liverpool from 1959 to 1974: "Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that".

Say what you like about the UK, but we've created more independence days around the world than any other country!

I am officially declaring this "James Best Weekend" on the HazzardNet. Sunday will mark 100 years since he was born. Post all your James Best tributes and trivia here. Especially you MM, the one amongst us who knew him Best.

Great, great photos & awesome memories of a wonderful show! And, I agree completely that you did a wonderful job of finding these pictures!!! The only problem? I'm going to have to buy a much larger external HDD to save these!!! ROFL!!!

I'm thinking about getting one myself! The Dukes of Hazzard 47th Anniversary 1979-2026 Ring

Been a bit busy but hope y'all are doing well! Been listening to the dukes of hazzard album on spotify! A lot of trivia in that album. Never realized Tom Wopat sang, what is now my favorite version, of Up on Cripple Creek! Also made the General Lee in GTA! Sadly no rebel flag but I put the "Norwegian" flag on my roof in the game cause it looked the most similar when going a 100 miles down the digital highway lol

Howdy y’all, just wanted to give a heads up in case nobody knows, not sure. Dukes are now available on Amazon Prime to stream, in excellent quality even though its the same as the hd tv airings I think. But definitely watchable! Given that I hope Warner will release the series again on blu ray in much higher quality than the old dvd prints.

Always happy to keep y’all up to date on Hazzard news

Oops. That's because I screenshot the wrong house... the one across the street. This is the correct house. It looks like one of them, either the Google Maps or the LA county fire site has it flipped.

I read John Schieders recent book, Livining "My Life My Way" John talked about how Sorrell would sometimes host the cast at his home in Sherman Oaks. John also mentioned in the book that Sorrell would show up to work at WB, and he drove an old Volvo. I guess Sorrell had more than one house.

They've been very generous in that respect.

I was 16. This 250 celebration didn't seem as big but I'm sure 300 will be huge. I'll be hanging out in Hazzard Heaven then.....the only place better than the USA to live!

I was 5, and I don't think it made it onto my radar being 3,000 miles away. I do remember dressing in red, white and blue a year later for Queen Elizabeth II's silver jubilee.

Jesse mutters to himself "Yep, but Emma's dirt bike blew up. I'd rather not remember that." Emma responded quickly, grabbing Jesse's arm "But I'll never forget that kiss" She winked at him.

Yes, I believe they were. That was the major selling point. But, I think by the time Dukes ran on TNN, cable was showing ads.

Garrett rolls his eyes at seeing them kiss but applauds with everyone else. "I guess that means we won't know the finishing order now," he states under his breath and turns around to face to take a drink of his beer that was sitting on the bar.

Garrett 🥂

Garrett turns around as Skipper approaches him and hears him out. He sets his half drank down and gives Skipper a high five. "No need to apologize, Skipper. It was just a race and you were just eager to win the race as everyone was. My car can and will be fixed in no time," he pauses to put down his empty glass from Cooter, "but I'll be glad to take you up on that drink and drink to a fun race."

Skipper sees Garrett, and Uncle Jesse come in. He rushed over to them. "Hey Uncle Jesse. Garrett. Garrett, I'm sorry about cheating and wrecking your car. I want to buy you a beer to apologize to you. Please join me. Uncle Jesse, you too. No hard feelings about you stealing the Coconut Moonshine or disconnecting the Minnow trailer from my car."

Walking into the Boar's Nest with his head down, Garrett sighs and looks up and looks through the crowd before finding Hobie. He makes a slow and long thoughtful walk over to Hobie where he looks up and gives Hobie a confident smile and puts his hand out and says, "Congratulations Hobie on a great race." He surprises himself that he actually means and finds himself buying into Jesse's speech. "But next year, that trophy is coming back home with me." He gives him a smile before he walks over to Bo and Luke who congratulate him on a well raced race. Garrett only shrugs it off before before Jesse and everyone starts asking him if he finished second after Hobie. Garrett shrugs. He'd be ok with second. Just not with the wrecked race car. Taking a deep breath he slowly admits out loud, "I don't really know where I placed," he pauses, "I just knew I wasn't first." He shrugs again before Cooter hands him a beer and he slowly takes a long drink before slowly stating, "I apologize for how I acted and not celebrating with you all for the fun race."

Garrett Duke was working on his vehicle outside of his apartment when his thoughts and concentration was abruptly shattered by a door slamming shut. Taking a deep breath, he slowly stands up and turns around to stand face to face to Jesse Duke. "What you think you're doing, boy?" Jesse says, his voice thick with disappointment and concern. Garrett looks away in attempt to hide his anger before looking back at his uncle. "I'm working on my wrecked car," he dryly states, putting emphasis on wrecked. "Not no more you ain't," Jesse states in a matter of fact tone, "get in the truck." Garrett goes to protest only to be cut off by angry blue eyes of his uncle. Shaking his head in defeat, he throws down the oil stained towel he was clenching onto onto the roof of his car before looking angrily up at Jesse before turning around and climbing into the cab of the old white Ford truck. They drive a long awkward five minutes in silence before Jesse interrupts the piercing silence by saying, "Everyone is at the Boars Nest celebrating what was suppose to be a fun race," he pauses, his voice drips of disappointment, "and you run off to pout because you didn't cross the line first." Jesse shakes his head. "I'm disappointed in you and your un-sportsmanship. You can't even congratulate yourself. Too busy feeling sorry for yourself. But you know what? Not everything is about you." Jesse allows more silence in the cab of his truck as Garrett stares out his window. "I thought I raised you better than this." Garrett quickly glares at his uncle in disbelief. "I ain't Bo or Luke," he states in disgust and disbelief, "you didn't raise me." Jesse nods at his mistake. "You're right, I didn't," he pauses, "then your father did a bad job at raising you." "You know nothing of how I was raised," Garrett states before letting out a deep breath. He knew of the bad relationship between the two and knew nothing he said would change Jesse's mind. Plus his dad was the one who sent him to Hazzard, so Garrett wasn't in the mood to argue with Jesse. He knew he wouldn't win any how. Changing the topic, he says, "You call me un-sportsmanship. I raced that race fair and square. And what do I have to show for it? A wrecked car." "Well good. I'm proud of you for racing your race fair and square," Jesse states, "but you can't control how others race you or treat you. The only person you have control over is yourself and how you react. And right now you are acting like a toddler without a nap not getting that cherished toy the toddler would want. So, in a few minutes we will be walking into the Boar's Nest and YOU are going to walk over to Hobie. Shake his hand and meaningfully congratulate him. Understand?" "Yeah," Garrett sighs in resignation. (Sorry for the long post)

And don't forget Beer or Whiskey flavored for Hobie Hartkins! ( I'm enjoying a few cold ones now! ......Milwaukee's Best Ice....I love Ice beer!)

Moonshine flavored for Jesse Buttermilk flavored for Enos (I know. It sounds delicious to me too) Raw liver flavored for Boss Beer flavored for Bo and Luke Honey flavored for sweet Daisy Bon Bon flavored for Lulu

Good to have you back cousin Roger! I was beginning to wonder where you were! I almost sent out the Hazzard County Rescue Squad to find you! ( I'm a member you know!) Well fellow Hazzardites, I hope you all are enjoying the international holiday! Dukes Of Hazzard Day !! ( Happy DOHD!! ) I'm just about to earn my name, Hobie Hartkins....? I 'm sitting here looking at 3 cans of Natural Ice. I'm now drinking my first can and am preparing to watch my first episode! Just hold on with bated breath ( LOL! ) and I'll be back in a while and let you know what episode, in case you want to watch with me! I must confess and I hope this isn't a sin in Hazzard, but I'm waiting to watch the Jeopardy Celebrity show ( I gotta do SOMETHING to stimulate my IQ!) and then....it's off to Hazzard! What are you guys doing on DOHD???

Just got HazzardNet back. They've been putting fiber optics in and there have been all kinds of issues. I think everything is good now. I'll catch up on posts later.

wait....you guys can do what you want....I just made my mind up! NO! a big fat NO! First it was Lynyrd Skynyrd, then it's other shirts etc. NOW this! Has everyone forgot what the war was REALLY about and that THERE IS NOTHING WRONG OR IMMORAL ABOUT THE CONFEDERATE FLAG!!!

Thank you for all you do for the HazzardNet and all the Dukes fans who love!

So, there's been a lot going on with me lately and I obviously missed the July 8th or 9th date. I am too fatigued/brain fogged to do the update this week, so I'm going to shoot for the 22nd or 23rd. The site will be down in the wee hours as I completely back everything up and start the upgrade. There is also a good chance I will forget again. But the good news is I have til the end of the year to remember.

cletus asks stupid QUESTIONS

I have. At Christmas time last year, WB had an event on the town square that was primarily aimed at Gilmore Girls fans. You could pay to get in and walk around the town square freely all day. I truly enjoyed it, even though I was a Dukes fan more so than a Gilmore Girls fan! lol WB will most likely have the same event at Christmas time later this year!

Thanks for telling us. Sounds like a little progress is being made.

Just once I would like to hear someone tell Judge Judy that when she asks them if they have a criminal record.

The original first season is a definite standout favourite to me, it made Hazzard feel more depth in a sense, mind you ain’t nothing wrong with the rest of the series. But backlot shoots don’t compare to Covington in my books.

Lewis Hamilton took pole for Saturday's sprint race, but got passed by Kimi Antonelli at about the midway point and had to settle for second at his home race. For the main race, Kimi took pole ahead of the two Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Lewis, and the other Mercedes of George Russell. Kimi had a poor start and was passed by both Ferraris. He didn't get ahead of Lewis until lap 11. Kimi then stayed out while the other leaders pitted. That led to a great 3-way battle between Lewis, George and Max Verstappen. When Kimi finally changed his tires he came out behind Charles. The new tires helped Kimi catch Charles quickly, but then on lap 41 he got a loose piece of the car affecting his steering. By the time the team managed to clear it, Kimi was out of contention. On lap 48 (of 52) Max crashed out of third place bringing out a full safety car. Both Ferraris pitted for new soft tires, but sadly we were deprived of a last lap shoot-out as the race finished under the safety car. The cars in F1 don't refuel, so they can't extend the race like they can in NASCAR. At the flag it was Charles ahead George, Lewis and the McLaren of Lando Norris. Just like the sprint race, the British drivers could only manage second, third and fourth! Race highlights are here. There's now two-week gap until the Belgian Grand Prix (sorry, but I had to mention Belgium ).

And we let the Scot's down again by beating Mexico!

That happens to me all the time. I always want to do things but so much else is always popping up. There is simply not enough time in the day....and week!

I've been to that place with the long name. It's on Anglesey, an island on the north-west coast of Wales not far from where the Irish ferry docks. It's mentioned in the 10 fun facts link that I posted above, which also translates what the name means. It's generally shortened to Llanfair PG.

Posted June 2, 2025 My Gray Ghost Jr. '68 Camaro broke down on the starting line. It’s all Rosco’s fault. He has to stop using his head as a hat rack. lol

The General Lee is a really NICE car.

Oh please no. LOL. Sorry I have been slacking. I was watching my parents' pets/ house sitting...and been lazy. I will try to get better at posting about NASCAR.

"Now that's a race to remember!" Garrett yells out in celebration while raising his beer glass to cheers with those around him before he eyes Hobie and gives him a nod. He slowly lowers his raised glass and says, "As I'm sure this race will be, too."

All English eyes were on Atlanta earlier tonight. Most of the games are on too late for me to watch, but England v DR Congo was on at 5pm our time, which meant that the match was over halfway through with England 1-0 down by the time I got home from work. Luckily, they pulled it round after the commercial hydration break and won 2-1. Now I have a dilemma - I obviously want England to win, but they're playing Mexico in the next round, and I have Mexico in my work's sweepstakes!

Garrett won the race in '25!

Jesse "It sure would be nice if we figure this out before the 2027 Moonshine 400. Does anybody remember who won the race in '25?" Garrett sounded off, "I believe you did Uncle Jesse. Weren't you racing with your 1923 Ford Coupe?" Jesse snapped back fast. "I mean 2025 you crazy kid. Why would you expect me to remember a 101 year old race when you can't even remember who came in second a half hour ago?"

I feel like a lot of things they changed should have been left alone. They've ruined a good thing...

Uncle Jesse 🥂

I just noticed.....Sorrell and Jimmy don't get their due! Everybody knows the famous comedy duos of all time, e.g. Abott and Costello, Laurel and Hardy, etc. , but I think Sorrell and Jimmy are the all time best pair!

Well fellow Hazzardites....I know it's late but I'm here drinkin' Beer and watching the one where Uncle Silas made Jessie the executor of his will....remember? I'm almost done with season 7 and so then it'll be back to season 1 !! I'm on my 3rd 16 oz. ( I usually drink 12 oz. cans.) can of Bud Ice! I'll be back around to the beginning soon! What's been happening with everybody?.....WHERE is everybody?? It's Dukes Of Hazzard Day! Happy DOHD everybody!

Commun....I mean Democrats ( same thing ), are hypocrites by nature.
