I take these things very hard since Dukes have been a big part of my life when they debuted in 1979 and these actors are truly family. I'm grateful for the HazzardNet because you folks can relate to the pain I'm feeling now. My condolences to all of you.  There is a happy reunion in Hazzard Heaven today between Boss, Rosco and Cletus. But there are plenty of tears on Earth for those of us who loved Cletus/Rick.  I just checked the family section in my notebook and there is not a whole lot of his family mentioned, except Boss of course.  He made his first appearance in season 1 where he was called Boss's cousin. Cletus mentioned his Mama in season 2.  He is called Boss's third cousin twice removed in season 3.  Cletus mentions his Mama again in season 4.

Very sad to read this news this morning. As well as Dukes, I also remember Rick playing a phoney lawyer in 'M*A*S*H' who told Klinger he could get him out of the army. Until I looked up his filmography, I'd forgotten about his appearances in 'CHiPs' and 'Earth Girls Are Easy' - I might have to check them out later. I also read this morning that composer Lalo Schifrin has died at the age of 93. 'Mission Impossible' composer seems to be the headlines, but I remember him better for the soundtracks of 'Dirty Harry' and 'Bullitt'.

Dukes of Hazzard fans... I bring y'all sad news. Rick Hurst (Deputy Cletus Hogg) has passed away. 😢 

Hey Gilligan's Island fans! 🚣‍♂️🌴 I've got some news to share: it looks like Fun World Pony Express has updated their Skipper costume design! 🚨 The classic Shirt, Pants, Hat, and Stuffable Belly combo has been swapped out for a new version featuring a Shirt, Pants, Hat, and Wig. 🤔 I spotted one on eBay with the new design, and it's definitely a change from the original. Anyone else notice this? Let's discuss! 💬 #GilligansIsland #TheSkipper #CostumeUpdate

Sometimes I hear the PlayStation 1 Racing For Home and Daisy Dukes It Out and PlayStation 2 and Xbox Return of the General Lee when I'm not playing. 😂
