Here's the original and Tom's version to compare and contrast.

It has been 21 years since the 2005 movie was released. Like many here, I followed the production avidly in 2004-2005. At the time I was a freshman in college. Today I'm 40 years old. LOL I've always had mixed feelings about the movie. While it might have some entertainment value as a movie by itself, it isn't the movie that the Dukes fanbase had hoped for.

HossC... Thanks! 😀 I checked it out back to back. I like Luke's version better.

The Band as in the same people that sing The Weight? I never realized that

Here are a couple of images from 'Officer Daisy Duke'. The beer is a Cuban brand called Hatuey Oscura, although I can't find this exact poster. My Google searches haven't found any matches for the other two yet, so they may have been made for the show. The Nesel Wine neon sign gets smashed during the fight.

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

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.

Ben Jones passed away today August 9, 2026. It’s a sad day for Dukes Of Hazzard fans and Ben’s family. My prayers are with Ben and his family.

Can’t believe he’s gone y’all. I heard the news today like many of us, and it hurts so bad. He was just this loving, kind and gentle soul. The very embodiment of what it means to be a Good Ol Boy. R.I.P to an absolute legend! - Tom Duke (Ontario, Canada)

I grew up watching the Duke boys and my son absolutely loved it. He wore the cowboy boots and white sleeveless t-shirts. We got to meet him in I think 98, in Virginia. What a great man.

I heard about it a little while ago…unbelievably devastating! Ben was probably the biggest advocate for the show, Duke Fests, events, and keeping the DOH spirit alive. It will never be the same, and I worry how long it will continue, without Ben.

Dang it! I overpaid by 29c.

Anyone here have any ideas where to find the sound assembly and roll bar for my 1982 General lee pedal car? Thanks everyone!

I'm afraid I can't help much. I'm not even sure if they were sold over here. I did find a 2012 article on the Dukes of Hazzard Collector blog where someone restored one of these pedal cars. As far as I can see, he just fixed the steering, cleaned it up and got someone to recreate the decals. There's no mention of a sound module. Maybe you can find someone selling a trashed car with a working module. I did find one seller on eBay asking $5,000 for a car "in working condition and in good shape for being 43 yrs old.". As far as I can tell, that's with fading decals and without a box! BTW. Had anyone at Coleco ever seen a '69 Dodge Charger? I understand that making an open pedal car isn't going to produce an exact replica, but the front looks more like a '69 Pontiac GTO, there's a spoiler on the trunk and the wheels are completely wrong. At least their 1984 KITT looks like a Trans Am.

you got me on that one bud but maybe some of the Brainiacs in here ( like Hoss or Roger) will know. If not, I'd suggest Google it.

Hello, trying to figure out what some of the items are on the Boars Nest wall. In season 2 you could see a blue neon sign that looks like it says "Nesel" next to a poster with two women that sayd "From Me to You". In episodes 17 and 18 season 2, you could see them. Curious if anybody has ever figured out what those were. Also curious about a sign near the door in those episodes with a little Indian who looks to be holding a beer tray. It seems to be written in Spanish. Thanks

Hoss, that is excellent!

OK fellow Hazzardites! It's that time of week again, Friday! That means it's the International holiday, Dukes Of Hazzard Day! ( DOHD) Right now, I'm watching the news and drinking my first can of brew ( Milwaukee's Best Ice) and preparing to watch DOH tonight, which everyone on the planet should do on Friday nights! My wife said she's off Sat. and Sun. and that means I don't have to get up early and take her to work and so, I'm free all weekend! PLUS .....she says she's going to fix me a pizza for supper later on, so, Pizza, Friday night, DOH, day off tomorrow, and a pack of Cold ones....it doesn't get any better than this! What's everybody else doing tonight? HAPPY DOHD!!

Yes, that's them!

The Ferraris looked fastest in practice for the Hungarian Grand Prix at the weekend, but it was World Champion Lando Norris who took pole in his McLaren. Both Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) and Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) got 3-place grid penalties for separate incidents in qualifying. Off the line, Lando initially got a perfect getaway, but went wide a few corners in and lost the lead to his team mate Oscar Piastri. Both Ferraris also got good starts as did Max Verstappen. These five then swapped positions a bit though different pit strategies, and Lando managed to take back the lead from Oscar. Sadly for Oscar, his gearbox failed on lap 56 (of 70) and he had to retire from second place. At the flag, Lando took his first win of the year followed by Max. Kimi recovered well to take third, and after Lewis managed to pick up a pit lane speeding penalty, he was demoted to fifth behind Charles Leclerc. That's still four different teams in the top four places. You can see the highlights here. Kimi has now extended his lead to 50 points over Lewis, which is two race wins. F1 now takes its annual 4-week break, during which time the factories have to shut for two weeks to give their globe-trotting staff a break. One bit of extra F1 news today: if there's still war in the Middle East at the end of the season, the finale will be held in Europe.

Happy 100th birthday in Hazzard Heaven Rosco!

Happy Birthday Jimmy! We'll all see you one day in the Boar's Nest in the sky! ( The first one's on me! )

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

This is so cool to see someone discovering Tom's version of CC for the first time. I remember when it first come out. I couldn't get it out of my head. Not that I'm complaining! I still love it so much. Looks like it's stuck in my head again!

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.

For reasons I won't get in to, the Confederate flag, which is totally fine and serves as a symbol to a noble cause, is being hidden, changed glossed over etc., even by sites and people who should know better and who are playing into the enemy's hands. This is why I've lost respect for Skynyrd and other web sites, and public figures who are cowards by bowing to the Leftist power.

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!!!

Kimi Antonelli took another pole at yesterday's Belgian Grand Prix ahead of Max Verstappen, George Russell and the Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton. World Champion Lando Norris had to start from 13th after he got a 10-place grid drop for using too many engine components in a season. Max briefly took the lead on the first lap before dropping back to third, and Lewis hit George, ending George's race and earning Lewis a 5-second penalty. After the resulting safety car, Max got back to second and Oscar Piastri moved to third before both Ferraris got ahead of him. There were a couple of short VSCs (virtual safety cars) which mixed the order a little through the pit stops. Lewis failed to receive the front wing tweak he wanted and knocked over a mechanic as he left the pits. The mechanic was unhurt, and although the incident was investigated after the race, it didn't affect the outcome. Despite being shuffled back to third in the pit stops, Kimi retook the lead with 10 laps to go and went on to take another win. Behind him were Charles, Max and Lewis. Lewis' fourth place was enough to move him to second place in the Drivers' Championship ahead of the non-finishing George. The race highlights are here. Next week's Hungarian Grand Prix is the last before the summer break, and several teams will have upgrades for the race.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Earlier this week when I was traveling from West LA to Burbank, I put the address for Sorrell's home in Sherman Oaks into my GPS, since it wasn't really out of my way! It led me to this two-car garage located on a windy narrow hillside street in Sherman Oaks. I assume that there are a set of stairs on the side of the garage and that the house is below it.

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.

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.

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!

My plan is to put that pretty little philly Emma Tisdale in a sidecar so when I win the 2027 Moonshine 400 on her dirt bike we'll be doing it together.

One of the secrets to happiness is to tune out the bad things and focus on the good. I have met several of the stars but John is not one of them. You are lucky and should be thankful. Those great memories will last a lifetime. Thanks for sharing them with us.

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.

They've been very generous in that respect.

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

You are a great addition to the HazzardNet Road Pirate.

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