  1. Hey everyone I just wanted to let y'all that thanks to the good comments I got about my old "Dukes" show treatment I decided to start working on the script again just for the heck of it.
  2. Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I'm a lifelong (well since i was 5) DUKES fan and yes that meansI was 5 when the show started in '79 and like it says in the song "19 Something" 'my first love was Daisy Duke in them cut-off jeans'. I've been a member for a while but it's been a while since I was active until recently. So I hope to be around more often now.
  3. Pretty good just trying to sleep I work midnights

  4. Hey there, how's your day going.

  5. I've always felt,even before the 2005 movie,that if there's going to be a new version of the Dukes,whether on the big or small screen that the original cast should be involved somehow. Back when I was in college I had to do a series treatment for one of my TV Production classes and I proposed then a new version of the Dukes called "Return to Hazzard" even though it was the name of the first reunion movie,because I liked it better than my other two options for names "Dukes of Hazzard:The Next Generation" or "Dukes of Hazzard:New Adventures". My idea was to pick up where the first reunion movie leaves off and have either Bo,Luke,or Daisy stay in Hazzard to help out on the farm again and then intro three younger (early to mid 20's) cousins named Matt Duke, Zach Duke, and Debbie Duke (they have to be cousins because it's established neither Bo,Luke, nor Daisy have children and at the time even if they had ,if we used real time,the children would not have been old enough to play big parts in the plot). I had also decided not to use Rosco as the main villian and use Huey Hogg instead,let's face it Rosco may be greedy but evil and cunning he ain't. In my original plan Rosco (now retired and finally getting a good pension from the state and a nice inheritance from Boss) plays more of an uncle type role to younger Dukes playing off of his sometimes expressed affection for Bo & Luke. The others like Cooter and Cletus (now promoted to Sheriff) filled basically the same roles they had in the original show althrough Cletus would become more like Rosco and we'd have to get a new deputy for him. However after Denver passed away I changed my idea a little to where it was Uncle Jesse's funeral that brought everyone back for "the pilot" of my idea. Bo would move back and maintain the farm with help from the aforementioned younger cousins. But before that all the Dukes Bo,Luke,Daisy,Matt,Zach,Debbie,and yes Coy & Vance too with help from Cooter, Rosco,and Enos would foil some unused grand plan of Boss Hogg's launched by Huey. I had even planned on having Cooter's cousins and daughter make cameos in the pilot. From there I had planned on FINALLY having Daisy and Enos get married and actually go through with it and live happily ever after in L.A., Luke would go back to fire jumping while Bo,Matt,Zach,Debbie,Cooter,and "Uncle" Rosco all stay in Hazzard so they can keep an eye on Huey and keep all his greedy plans from coming to pass. I doubt that we'll ever see anything like this but I just wanted to share how I think the Dukes franchise and the revival there of should have been handled.
