"Daisy Dukes" have officially been added to the Oxford English Dictionary, 46 years after we first saw them on screen. They are among over 230 new words/terms that will now appear in the OED. The Irish Sun (national tabloid newspaper) even made it their featured addition in this article. You can see the dictionary entry here. In case you weren't sure about the definition: Daisy Dukes, noun colloquial (originally and chiefly U.S.). Brief, tight-fitting denim shorts, typically made from a pair of cut-off jeans and usually worn by women. Also as a modifier with the first element in singular form, in Daisy Duke shorts.

The one where Luke grabs a newspaper from a vendor and tells Bo to pay the man, and then he asks how come I've got all the answers and Bo's got all the questions and then Bo tells him " You're older than me". Hey there Josh Keith, it's good to see you!

Welcome to HNet, joshkeith. The ages of the characters are never revealed (except for Abraham Lincoln Hogg by his driver's licence, and therefore his twin brother, Boss), but the subject has been discussed a few times before. Here are three threads to get you started: Ages of dukes I have a question??? What were the real ages of cast? Anyone know? Aside from the flashback episodes ('Go West, Young Dukes' and 'Happy Birthday, General Lee'), and the shown-out-of-order season 2 episodes, I think Dukes ran chronologically, although not many storylines crossed episodes or seasons. An example of this is T.C. Rogers becoming Supervisory Administrator of Hazzard County in 'People's Choice' (S2E11), but then she was never mentioned again. Of course, the 2005/2007 movies completely ignored the canon of the TV series, but that's another story!

I'm glad I'm not out of reactions because that last post was funny....and delusional. Dream on young man.

Dream on! They don't call my machine the Moonshine MAULER for nothing!! Cooter just finished tuning it up and Daisy just gave me a good luck kiss ( and a dirty look! LOL! ) Everybody knows I'm going to beat every little red buggy on the track! Just to celebrate I'm about to indulge in a few adult beverages now!

I'm out of reactions but Friday sounds like as good of day as any for me to win.

I'm a big A-Team fan but never got into Magnum.

Sonny needs to share his fountain of youth formula lol.

Hi I was watching the dukes. i was wondering how old they were all supposed to be at the start of season 1 also how old were coy and Vance i know Byron was 28 when he was in season 5. i was just wondering they always make reference that Bo was the baby and in under cover dukes Jesse refers to Bo as baby Bo

There is no place in the entire series where they revealed how old any of the Dukes were. On "Happy Birthday General Lee" Luke said that they first got the General when Bo was just out of high school and Luke was just out of the Marines. That would imply that Luke is four years older than Bo because 90% of Marines back then only stayed in four years. But that presents a problem because in a different episode Luke's Marine buddy comes to town and it is revealed that Luke was a combat vet in VietNam ( I think that was "The Great Hazzard Hijack). If Bo got out of high school in 1978 (like John Schneider did) Luke would have joined the Marines in 1974 but US Marines weren't in combat situations that late in the war to the best of my knowledge. Swamp Molly rescued Jesse from the Feds in 1936. Denver Pyle was born in 1920. Boss's brother was born on 4-6-26 according to the episode "Baa Baa White Sheep" Since they're twins that means Boss was born then too. Rosco was 48 in the episode "Mrs Rosco P Coltrane" and was the quarterback for Hazzard High in 1944 in a different episode. Of course how old they were in real life compared to their ficticious ages were two different things. Enos and Daisy were shown to be about the same age but Sonny's waaay older than Catherine.

Bo-18 Luke-28 Daisy-25 Uncle Jesse(or as he'd probably tell us"I ain't your Uncle Jesse)-58 Boss-49 Rosco-53 Enos-43 and finally,Cooter-38
