It could have been they were running out of ideas…but, they darn well could have come up with something better than that! But, I’m not sure they knew for sure it was the last season. John Schneider has said before that DOH was never “officially” cancelled. The network just chose not to put the show in the next season’s lineup…and never did again. Although John wrote & directed the series finale…I don’t think they knew at the time that it would end up being the finale. At least it wasn’t the alien crap, lol!

I'm out of reactions too. But this race is sure heating up. Anything can happen. Who knows, Hoss might even show up with his orange F-1 car with the Union Jack and 01 painted on it.

I've noticed with other tv series that they often do silly things as the series winds down. They simply run out of ideas in some cases and I suppose they just stop caring after awhile. I think someone posted that the alien idea came from James Best. Does that sound familiar? Maybe other people knew it was a bad idea but just wanted to let Jimmie have a little fun. If they knew it was the last season then they didn't have to worry about ratings. We saw a lot of silliness in season 7. Didn't Uncle Jesse jump a moving train in his F-150? Silly....but why not since the series was over anyways. Edit: I wonder if Denver always wanted to jump his truck like that but they said no until season 7 because nobody cared at that point.

No. They are both Cadillac Series 62s, but Grady's momma drove a 1959 model while Newtie drove a 1961.

The blue car in Return of the Ridge Raiders that Newtie has smoke machine hooked up to, is that the same car that was Sheriff Grady Byrd's momma's car in Jude Emery?

Hobie... I'm out of reactions. So... ❤️

Roger... I'm out of reactions. So... ❤️

Those guys who play the rent-a-cops protecting Boss Hogg's truck load of senior citizens center stuff in Return of the Ridge Raiders, are they part of The Dukes stunt team?

There are just some kinds of shows that the alien/sci-fi/UFO crap (my opinion) doesn’t work…and DOH was definitely one! Leave that garbage for Star Wars, Star Trek, and X-Files. Ironically another show, around the same time, that tried the aliens ridiculousness was Miami Vice. An episode called “Missing Hours” ended up being famously known as THE worst episode of MV (in my opinion, possibly the worst episode in TV history)!

Right on!

can't add anymore reactions today so......Thumbs up on your comment

I hate to say anything bad about the Dukes..... ......but Strange Visitor was definitely the worst ep. On the other hand...it was a Dukes episode so even at its worse it was better than anything else that has ever been on TV.

Within seconds Miz Tisdale and Jesse have caught Skipper. The three of them are side by side by side battling for third place. Jesse looks in the mirror and sees no other racers except Boss's Gray Ghost 2 which is quite a ways back. Then Jesse looks ahead. Hobie has caught up to Garrett. He is now inches from Garrett's back bumper. Unless they crash each other out it looks like nobody else has a chance to win this race. But ya just never know. This is Hazzard after all.

Yup!

I feel the same way and as you meet others on here, you'll find out, that Strange Visitor is EVERYBODY'S least favorite!

I watched that one earlier this evening.

In my opinion the worst episode of the entire series was the “Strange Visitor” one. But, there are a few throughout the show that aren’t my favorites.

Right now I'm watching the one where Cooter is racing against the Dukes in Duke vs. Duke.

well I like that one but there are 4-6 I don't like or watch

I’m having a…“German soda” and getting ready to watch “To Catch a Duke”. I skipped “My Son, Bo Hogg” as I’ve never liked that episode.

MARY kaye's baby (with no General Lee)

Right now I'm drinking and watching The Legacy......well it just ended....lol

Agreed!

You've heard people go into their " Happy Place " when sad or stressed etc. well Hazzard is my Happy Place, whether I'm watching it or not! LOVE seems to be one of the underlying themes of the entire show!

and having Enos and Daisy marry.....a double wedding on the last episode!
