Saw Big Ed on TV today. But he wasn't in uniform and he wasn't Big Ed. It was on A-Team, the episode The Bend in the River.

Hey Monaco Man! Great to see you! We've missed you! Don't be a stranger! Hey, we get into some pretty wild discussions on here when there's several citizens of Hazzard in here, so we need everybody to keep the discussions going here in town!

I've just found that episode online and watched it. Compared to shows that came only a couple of years later, it looks so dated. I knew I recognized the bad guy Brother Love (Eddie Albert) from somewhere, and looking through his filmography, I realized it was the feature length pilot of 'The Fall Guy'. He played Big John Cramer, a corrupt Arizona sheriff who knocks a boy off his bike in Hollywood and then jumps bail when he's told that the boy has died. The episode also had a couple of familiar faces from Dukes. Kathrine Baumann, one of the car strippers from 'Arrest Jesse Duke', had a bit part as a woman who Colt and Howie question briefly, and Dennis Fimple, the preacher from 'Daisy's Shotgun Wedding', played the lead deputy.

Cletus......don't forget CLETUS!!!

I was just looking up Big Ed. He was born in Klamath Falls Oregon and that is where he died. (1938-2017). There's a song "Everybody dies famous in a small town" but he really was famous....acted in a lot of things. We miss you Big Ed. Happy birthday today in Hazzard Heaven!

Looks like we missed a Hobie birthday. Belated happy BD you old Ridge Runner!
