I like the end of Carnival of Thrills....but I hate the boys fighting and not getting along.

There are loads of pictures of Sorrell Booke in other movies/shows in this thread: There are a couple of Denver Pyle here: And some of Peggy Rea here: Please note that there are some links/videos that need fixing in these threads - I'll get to them ASAP, but it's late here now.

Balladeer:"It was a bright sunny Saturday morning in Hazzard County. The Duke Boys were up, had breakfast, and got their chores done. Uncle Jesse sent them into town with a list of supplies to pick up for the farm. Bo and Luke were excited when they saw the signs advertising a big race coming up in 3 days. Both boys got so excited their faces displayed big ol' grins with the looks of a cat who ate a Canary." Bo:"You know Luke, I can't wait for this race! We need to win, so we can pay off the farm once and for all." Cue Garrett Duke

This is true....but very few people DO look that good! She's a hard act to follow!

Insect (I really liked it better when we were talking about cats and dogs...LOL)

I beg to differ. Denver and Jimmie were pretty good looking in their day. Not sure about Sorrel. I haven't seen any early day pictures of him. (I say this as Garrett's author, who is female, and not Garrett. Garrett just likes their acting abilities and who they represent. LOL)

He was Mary Beth's daddy and an organized crime boss ....J. J. Carver!....( remember now?)

Carnival of thrills is definitely 2 episodes....also one of my least fav. and one of if not THE goofiest!

Thanks Roger and Hoss! I can always count on you to steer me in the right direction even if you don't know the exact answer.

"To Catch a Duke": Waylon: It must be Saturday in Hazzard County. The Duke boys are going fishing. Daisy's on her way to visit Aunt Kate for a couple of days. And Uncle Jesse? Well, he's just out for a ride. ... Luke: Daisy called from over at Aunt Kate's. Said Aunt Kate's back on her feet from her miseries... and Daisy ought to be home by Monday. This is the only episode in which Daisy doesn't appear. Despite the Aunt Kate storyline, in reality, Catherine Bach was away filming TV special 'Circus of the Stars'.

I happened upon the video below yesterday while looking for something completely unrelated to Dukes. It's an episode of the Sally Field series 'Gidget' from 1966. As I was watching, a familiar face appeared. Peggy's only in it for about 20 seconds (4:22-4:42), and she's rather rudely credited simply as "Fat Lady".

Thought I'd put up a couple of pics of Sorrell before he became Boss Hogg. The first is from a Dukes book I have. In 1962 he played the title role in the musical (stage production) of 'Fiorello!'. The second is from one of his 2 appearances as Gen. Wilson Spaulding Barker in the first season of MASH in 1972.

To dovetail with my last post I thought I'd include a link to Peggy Rea's first appearance in the last show she was in. The series was 'Grace Under Fire' (1993), and Peggy played Grace's interfering mother-in-law, Jean Kelly. Throughout the five seasons Peggy appeared in 51 episodes (nearly half). It looks like this was the first series created by Chuck Lorre, who went on to create 'Cybill', 'Dharma & Greg', 'Two and a Half Men', and 'The Big Bang Theory'. The link below is for YouTube, so hopefully everyone can see this one. Of course, it may get taken down. The video quality isn't the best, even at 480p, but it's quite watchable. Hopefully one of my local TV stations will show this again one day, or it'll get a full DVD release. Grace Under Fire Undergraduate Part One Here's a screengrab of Peggy with her on-screen daughter-in-law, Grace (Brett Butler):

Daisy: You sure? Enos strate are you pulling one over on me?

Thanks for sharing this Hoss. You're pretty awesome. Fat lady? It should say beautiful lady if you ask me.
