I was going to post my opinion of the seventh season but after reading the post before me (Lukas KD) I will just say, ditto....that's exactly how I feel. I noticed that nobody mentioned that the saddest episode was aired that season...the last one.

It looks like my last thread got deleted for some reason so I'll try this again. In the episode when Enos came back from California (Coy and Vance are in it.) Enos mentions an Uncle Odie. I talked to him about this once because I had an Uncle Odie also and he told me that his father's name in real life is Odie RogerDuke

I remember one episode when I was watching the originals where they showed the boarding house where Enos lived and I'm certain they said the name of the road it was on. I'm rewatching all the shows and I'll run across it eventually. I'm especially interested because I'm making a map of Hazzard County and town (see the "hobbies" thread) and during the originals, Enos was my favorite character so I paid extra attention when anything was said about him. I'll post an update when I find it. Also, in the episode (with Coy and Vance) when he returns from California Enos mentions his Uncle Odie. I talked to Sonny personally and told hime I also had an Uncle Odie. He said that his father's name (in real life) is Odie. RogerDuke

I can understand your point about times changing but my concern is this. If Dukes going from a G rating to an R rating is considered an improvement then does that mean that if they go from R to X that will be even better? Consider this, The original Georgia episodes were PG but they toned them down to G because they knew the improvement is what would succeed and it was what the majority wanted. It's what the majority still wants. Not many people wanted to see Uncle Jesse smoking pot in the last R rated movie. Even fewer will want to see Willie Nelson naked in the X-rated one. RogerDuke

Always have your priorities in the right order. Faith Family Farm Fun Mix some country music, fresh air, and a few yee haaaas in every day and you'll have a pretty good life, RogerDuke

I suspect that most peple who liked the recent Dukes Beginning movie weren't even born when the original series was out. I'm happy to see young people drawn to the Dukes but disappointed in the vulgarity. I have a question for those who would corrupt such a great show. WWJD? (What would (Uncle) Jesse do?) Well, let me tell you what he'd do...he'd get up and turn off the satellite dish and then put in a DVD of the original Dukes. RogerDuke

Hi everybody, I am new to the Hazzardnet (and new to using computers in general). I am a 46 year old redneck from northwestern Pennsylvania. I have been a huge Dukes fan since I got hooked in 1979. Ever since then I've felt like the people on the show are members of my own family. I have met Tom Wopat and Ben Jones in person and have talked to Sonny Shroyer on the phone. I'm excited to begin my adventure on the Hazzardnet and look foward to many years of corresponding with all of my fellow Hazzard County residents. Since I've discovered this, I have already posted things on a few threads including my plans for A Hazzard town and county map (please see Hobbies). I thought I was in Dukes heaven after collecting the entire series on DVDs. Now I know I've hit the jackpot. I have the chance to meet people who understand why no other entertainment in the history of the world even comes close to the joy of Hazzard County. Thanks to the originators of this website for making this possible. Roger

In the early 80s (I have the exact date written down at home) I saw a story in Sports Illustrated about the Valdosta Georgia high school football team. They had a picture of the sign entering town showing pride in their great team. The sign also said that Valdosta was the home of Sonny Shroyer so I sent him a fan letter (with the zip code but no address). In it, I included my phone number. A few days later...you guessed it. The next year I sent him a birthday card and got another call. Roger

I am new to the Hazzardnet (and have little computer skills but I'm learning). I'm excited about figuring out how to navigate this website and meet people who love Hazzard County as much as I do. I was wondering if there is anyone out there who has ever put together a map of Hazzard? I did it when the show was first out but now that I have all 7 years on DVD I can get a much more accurate map because I won't miss any episodes and I can "rewind" something if I didn't hear it clearly. I am watching every episode and keeping a notebook of the following catagories 1)residents 2)businesses 3)roads 4)landmarks 5)water 6)neighboring counties 7)other misc. When I've seen all the episodes, I plan on putting together a huge map of Hazzard County with all of those items on it. Of course, there are inconsistencies that I've run accross but I'll work them out somehow. I'm sure I'm not the first one to come up with this idea but I'd love to hear from others who have.

Although in reality my personality is more like Luke's than anybody else's, until recently my favorite character was always Enos. Since I'm somewhat complicated, Enos' simplicity was always refreshing and I like his high morals. Recently Uncle Jesse has taken over the top spot as my favorite. I suspect it has something to do with getting older. P.S. I'm new to this website and I'm somewhat computer illiterate so I'm just now learning the skills to figure it out but I just want to say that it's great discovering this. Since 1979 (I was 19) the Dukes have felt like family and now I suspect I will be meeting many more family members who share my passion. RogerDuke

Right after I sent the last message I read the responses you got back from other people so my computer skills are already improving. The one person said that there was a poll on Sonny's website asking if people want the DVD to be made. Could you give me the website? I guess I could google it but I don't know how. Thanks, Roger

Hi, My name is RogerDuke. I am a 46 year old Dukes fan from Pennsylvania. Despite the fact that I am otherwise a pretty intelligent guy, my computer skills are pretty bad. Yesterday was the first time I have attempted to do anything with a computer besides e-mail and since I am such a Dukes fanatic, I discoved this website (with a little help). You are the first person I've "talked" to. I saw your question about the "Enos" series and I have wondered the same thing so let me know if you get any info about that. It's nice to know that somebody else liked Enos enough to be wondering about his series. Enos and Uncle Jesse are my two favorite characters. I talked to Sonny twice on the phone but never met him. I'm met Ben Jones and Tom Wopat in person though. Once I've figured out how to navigate this website, I'm going to love it. The people of Hazzard County have always felt like family to me and now it's cool knowing I will meet others who feel the same way. Roger
