I like to see a good mixture of male/female ratios across TV shows. Some environments are predominantly biased to towards a single gender, so it wouldn't reflect reality if we try to keep them all even. Two of my favorite British sitcoms are 'Porridge' and 'dinnerladies'. The former is set in a male prison, which doesn't give the opportunity for many female roles. The latter is set in a factory cafeteria where seven of the nine main actors are female (including the one who also wrote the show). Others I like may have a male or female in the lead role with a mixed supporting cast. So long as there's a good variety across the shows, I'm fine with that.

The actress was Lori Lethin who played Lori in 'Southern Comfurts'. Her line was, "Yeah, but necessity's the mother of intervention, ain't she?"

"You're a regular P.T. BARNUM and BAILEY." Rosco when Boss announces plans to make money from Rock Marlowe's trial in 'Deputy Dukes'.

The downloads section on the home page seems to have gone missing, but I found a TrueType version of Hobo font at the link below: https://www.ffonts.net/Hobo.font.download Just google "hobo font free" if that doesn't work for you.

Once again, four posts when one would do! You're just not getting it. Stop with the superfluous comments, collect your thoughts and only post when absolutely necessary. I now consider this discussion closed because it has already taken up far too much of my valuable spare time in a busy week. This post does not require a reply or comment. Take a couple of days off without posting anything, and come back refreshed with a better understanding of how forums work. I didn't want it to come to this, but I will delete anything you post in the next 48 hours as you have monopolized the forum long enough. I also do not expect any private messages from you during this time - the one you sent while I was writing this was completely pointless as it just says the same as your last post (and fills up my email inbox).

And you still carry on with the inaccuracies, Skipper! B.B. Bascomb: "People, people, you already have the money. I'm B.B. Bascomb, music promoter extraordinaire." Rosco: "Ezra, is this your shill?" Ezra Bushmaster: "Thought he was yours." You obviously didn't comprehend the scene if you thought Rosco said "shell" - it makes no sense. Seeing as you won't have time to look up "shill", here's the definition: informal•North American noun noun: shill; plural noun: shills an accomplice of a confidence trickster or swindler who poses as a genuine customer to entice or encourage others. Skipper, please stop posting any so-called quotes until you're prepared to put in the time needed to check and understand them. Sorry if I'm starting to sound a bit terse, but as a moderator I can't just ignore this like other members are able to do, and you're currently taking up about 99% of my time on here as opposed to 1% for everyone else put together!

Right, Skipper, let's get some things straight. Firstly you need to calm down and stop over-reacting. You posted several times last night that you were leaving even though no one asked you to, you posted three or four questions to me and sent me a similar number of private messages despite the fact that it was night-time where I live and I was asleep! I will repeat this mantra - HazzardNet is a forum, not Facebook. Please don't post something just because it pops into your head and then your next thought five minutes later and repeat ad nauseum. Consider your posts and think whether they're worthwhile. As a moderator, I try to read all the new posts, and at moment about three quarters of them are yours. Many times you make multiple posts one after the other when a single, well thought out post would have been much better. In the end you're spreading out the interesting stuff and diluting the content. Being a forum, HazzardNet is about discussion, but you've been starting numerous off-topic threads lately (mainly about movies) and then flooding them with posts even though no one else has shown any interest in the subject. An interaction takes two sides. HazzardNet is not your personal space to post everything you know about a movie or TV show. Either keep that to Facebook or start your own website. As Boss JD Hogg says above, "If you're posting a quote that's not accurate then it's not actually a quote from the show. Why bother if it's not an accurate quote." If you don't think it's worth digging out your DVDs to check them, then it's not worth posting. The fact that you couldn't spend less than 30 seconds googling "draconian" proves that you don't spend much time researching your posts. The quotes should be short one-liners or interactions that are funny and/or memorable - the sort of thing you'd tell a friend. Anything longer is just an excerpt of the script. For the time being, why not try what Roger suggested and "take a day or 2 to cool off". After that, forget about posting in all your off-topic threads unless other members show an interest. Put more time and thought into the posts you do make, and maybe limit yourself to five considered posts a day across the whole forum. Concentrate on quality over quantity!

It was not my intention to stop you posting, Skipper. This is a forum and not Facebook. It should be a place of integrity where we can have fun, but intelligent discussions and interactions without any of the nastiness which seems to go hand in hand with social media. That's why we keep religion, politics and most bad language away from HazzardNet. It's also not about posting dozens of times a day hoping someone will "like" something you said. The only two things I've asked you to do is to make sure quotes are accurate to what was actually said (this is a pet peeve of mine online, because if I've gone to the trouble of searching out dialogue, I want it to be correct), and to avoid posting quotes with excessive profanity or particularly adult themes (even with censored words). I don't consider either of these requests to be particularly draconian, and everyone else here is able to work within these boundaries.

Skipper - I don't know how many times I have to say this, but if you can't quote accurately, don't post it as a quote! I don't know if you're mixing up the quotes yourself or copying them from an unreliable source, but please stop. In the post above you've merged the two parts of the scene while missing bits out and misquoting others. Here's what was actually said: Bo: "I bet that dang trial's started already." Luke: "The stork had to pick this morning for delivery." Bo: "All right, we'll still make it." Luke: "Come on, Doc, let's hit the road." Doc Appleby: "Sorry, boys, looks like it's going to be twins." Doc: "Be right with you, boys." Bo: "We'll still make it, right?" Luke: "Yeah." Doc: "Uh, Boys..." Luke: "You gotta be kidding. Not triplets." Balladeer: "They're lucky he ain't a vet. Some dogs have a dozen to the litter." I haven't had time to check your previous post from 'The Ghost of General Lee', but that's another whole scene for which you created a separate thread. Stick to the couple of quotable lines at the end - we're not after an entire script here.

sauce (In Ireland, Chef is a brand of ketchup, BBQ sauce etc.)

Hi Rob, I've updated the two "mystery location" links on the first page. Let me know if there are any other broken links and I'll try to fix them.

You're probably thinking of this scene in 'The Revenge of Hughie Hogg' (S5E13). Boss has told Rosco that he's supporting Hughie Hogg for sheriff: Lulu: "...and until you give Rosco his job back you're gonna have to find another place to feed your face and lay that body down. Now, I mean it. And I mean it." Boss: "Oh, Lulukins, please." Lulu: "I do." Boss: "I don't mind about the laying down but I sure gotta have the feeding."

I don't think the second quote is the one you're trying to remember, but it serves the same purpose. From 'One Armed Bandits' (S1E1): "Boss eats at the Boars Nest because his wife Lulu is a lousy cook." From 'Cool Hands, Luke & Bo' (S7E7): "Boss got all of his businesses back and he was looking forward to some of Lulu's fine home cooking." It's possible that the latter line is sarcastic as Boss ends up with three beans on a platter. Maybe Cooter never fixed the locks when he put the doors back on. What do you expect for $35.42?

Even when you censor the rude words, lots of these quotes aren't appropriate for this forum. Please consider that before you post any more and keep them family friendly.

We lost another prominent Irish musician last week: Shane MacGowan. Sadly, the news came a day after a friend of mine passed away, so I'm late with this post. Here's Shane with The Pogues singing 'Fiesta': And here he is duetting with Sinead O'Connor on 'Haunted'. It's hard to believe that we've lost both of them in the last six months.

The exchange above was about the slit in the dress that Daisy wore to the Boar's Nest. Without context, the quote is pretty meaningless.

He had one in several of the pictures I posted here.

It wasn't Doc Petticord, but it looked a bit like him. Pat (Patrick) Crenshaw played Doc Petticord in 'Double Sting' (season 1), but his character was only named "Doctor" in 'And in This Corner, Luke Duke' (season 3) . Parley Baer started playing Doc Appleby in 'Coltrane vs. Duke' near the start of season 4, but then didn't appear again until 'Too Many Roscos' near the start of season 6. In 'Dear Diary' (near the end of season 4), Doc Appleby was played by a different actor, Elmore Vincent. This was his only appearance in Dukes and one of only 29 acting credits between 1956 and 1983.

You can't post it here either - HNet is a family friendly site. Don't do it again!

BENTLEY The car in 'Repo Men' was actually a Bentley S2 with a Rolls Royce grille. FYI. You've played this twice in s row and the county was always Sweetwater (one word). I think I've only missed one day on HNet in over ten years, and that was because I couldn't log in. I just don't have time to post every day.

Welcome to HNet, Pete. I've never collected the Johnny Lightning merchandise, but I'm sure that other members will have done. NB. I haven't approved your other post yet as we don't usually include personal contact details in public posts. I'll let Meadowmufn decide on that. In the meantime, you can use the private messaging system here to talk to other members.

So why didn't you say that in your post?

Skipper, I've said this before - please don't post links without at least a brief description. A lot of people won't click on them.

They're being posted on YouTube, but Skipper hasn't bothered posting links since the early ones. I'd hope that most of us have them on DVD anyway.
