  1. I don't have cable TV, so I am sure I am not as effected by this decision as most are, but I do get to catch an episode here and there on TV when I am at my parents' house. It is sad and frustrating to see CMT take the Dukes off of their list of programs so that everyone will have a chance to watch them. I'm sure not everyone has the DVD sets that are now out there so it is nice that they were able to watch the Dukes. And I agree, there is something nice watching the Dukes on TV and knowing others are out there watching it as well. With all that said, I also have to say that I think CMT had done a great job putting the Dukes on their schedule and giving them good and positive attention. Not only that, they are giving us all a last chance to watch the Dukes of Hazzard and to say good-bye to the show we all love. I know when it once had been on TNN (Back when it was TNN) they had given little to no warning of taking the Dukes off of their programming. One day it was on, the next it wasn't. So in my opinion, I think we should be more grateful than sad. Grateful at the opportunity to be able to watch the show on TV over the past few years and have the opportunity to watch it one last time before it is taken off TV. It is sad to see it leaving, but at least we had the chance to watch it on TV. Not only that, we now also have the opportunity to purchase all seven seasons on DVD and watch an episode whenever we want to. Well, there's my two cents worth on the subject...

  2. I finally got to watch my DVD I got at Dukefest last night and John had said in the beginning that the DVD (Coolier and Co. Hot Pursuit) would be out in stores on September 18th. It was a home video he had said and through the acting and the quality, you could tell that it was. But I really enjoyed the theme of the movie and the car scenes. He had a lot of awesome cars in the show. There was comedy in the show, a lot of references to the Dukes , and it was a family show. Plus it had John Schneider in it! His daughter had played his daughter, his wife was his wife, and his mom was his mother in law in the show. It was great seeing them all. Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  3. Flipping through the channels tonight, I was happily surprised to find John Schneider on "Diagnosis Murder" on the ION channel. I caught it right in the middle - though I guess that is better than catching the last ten minutes or not catching it at all. It was a good episode other than the fact that John played a real bad guy in it and at the end was shoved over the balcony! It was good to see him . . .even as a bad guy.

  4. You could be right...it has been a while since I have last seen that episode. Garrett Duke
  5. I got the poster today when I stopped by the nearest Walmart when I had went there to pick up some other stuff. I find it really amazing that after all these years they are still making new merchandise for the show and to see just how many of us DOH fans there is. Very awesome to see such a show as the Dukes to remain so strong after all these years - just what the world needs at a time like it is now. A TV show that has good morale to it, a family show that attracts those of all ages; a comedy with some drama in it with a lot of cool car chases. As Rosco would say, "I love it, I love it." Take care and keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  6. I've read that as well from the book and from other places, but it only equels to another oddity in their plot line or history. In one episode, Jesse says Daisy was six years old when she came to the farm while Bo and Luke had both been babies when he took them in. So if we go by their supposed age, it would be impossible for their parents to die at the same time - that would put Bo and Luke at the same age and Daisy six years older than them both. In "Brotherly Love" didn't they say Luke's parents die in that hospital fire that had supposedly killed Jud? I've noticed several incidents where the show counterdicts something said or shown in another episode such as that. But that was the one that bothered me the most. I always thought they should have made an episode to describe and show how they all had came to come live with Jesse. I think the actors thought the samething if I remember correctly. Oh well, I gess that is where writing fan-fic and imaginations comes in handy. Take care and keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  7. I've got Toby Keith's first Greatest Hits CD in - what a great CD, which is to be expected from Toby. Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  8. Right now I am listening to Keith Urban's "Golden Road" CD. Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  9. Correct me if I am wrong, but if it is the kid I am thinking of. . .it is also the son of Ernie Brown. He is the guy that plays Dobro Doulin as well as LB Davenport. Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  10. There are several scenes that comes to mind, but the one that really sticks out is at the end of the second half of "Carnival of Thrills" when Cooter, Luke, Daisy, and Jesse show up to save Bo. Not only do they stop Bo from making a deadly jump, but Bo and Luke make up, as well as everyone. It made it even better when Luke jumped in the passenger seat to help Bo make the jump after all that they went through. It just don't seem natural to see Bo and Luke fighting or being in disagreement with one another when they always seems to get along with one another and help eachother out.

  11. I just want to say that I had attended my fourth Dukefest this year and had a blast - as I have every year. Though this one was a little more special than the years in the past. (They all were special) Not only did I get to hang out with an online friend, but after five hours of standing in line I finally got to meet the one and only Bo Duke - John Schneider himself. What a great guy! Not only that, but had also got an autographed picture of Catherine Bach and got to have a ride in The General! The stunts were great and it was amazing to see all those Duke fans out there! (Glad to know I'm not the only one out there LOL) I also got to visit Cooter's Garage in Nashville. I have visted his one in Gatlinburg, TNN the first Dukefest I had attended (Then it was at Bristol). Was glad to see his new one. Sorry the report is soooo late. It is hard for me to believe that it was a month ago already. (But hey, better late than never, huh?) Now am really hoping to get to go next year . . . Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  12. Thank-you Daney for the link. It is interesting to go through and look at her products that she has made and is selling. Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  13. Saw it a couple of weeks ago. It was a good family show and John had a pretty big part in it as well. It was great to see him on TV again. Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  14. The latest "Country Weekly" magazine that is out (I don't know the issue date right off hand) but it has Keith Urban on the cover - it has a nice page long article about John Schneider. It is about his new movie. Has a couple of nice pictures in it as well. Keep it between the ditches, y'all! Garrett Duke
  15. Mark Martin is racing the 01 car for part of the 2007 season - though that may change - but if Martin sticks to his word, a rookie driver will take over the races he doesn't race in the 01 car. He has been offered to drive all year because he has done so good in racing this year, but he continues to say he'll stick with only part of the year. The double zero car driver is David Reutimen (spelling? LOL) and is also a rookie. It will be interesting to see how he does - he seems to be doing an ok job for his first year or so. There is a lot of changes with drivers and rules this year and it will be interesting to see how things shape up this year. . .as always. Take care and keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  16. I'd be Bo, so that I could drive The General as well as to play chase with the local law. Being a part of the Duke family would be great as well. Keep it between the ditches, y'all Garrett Duke
  17. My favorite TV shows are: Dukes of Hazzard Numb3rs Dog Whisperer ~Garrett Duke~
  18. Dukes of Hazzard will be always be a favorite, but I would have to say that Numb3rs is closely behind it for second. I look forward to my Fridays just to be able to watch Numb3rs and Dog Whisperer. ~Keep it between the ditches~ Garrett Duke
  19. I've read chapter one and two so far and have enjoyed reading what I have read so far. Can't wait to see what else is in store for Cooter and Kelly! Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  20. First of all let me say, I am a huge Bo and Luke fan. In my eyes, no one could ever take their place and do them justice. I never was much of a fan of Coy and Vance for several reasons - but have nothing against the actors portraying them. They were placed into a difficult situation by being forced into wearing such big shoes as replacing Bo and Luke. If WB did it differently-like make Coy and Vance their own character instead of Bo and Luke, they could have had a chance for acceptance. Even if that was the case - no one could take the place of Bo and Luke -John/Tom. But to defend WB - what else were they suppose to do? Tom and John just walked out on them and on a show that was high in ratings. I understand why Tom and John did what they did - they shouldn't have gotten cheated and if everything was as it was suppose to be, they wouldn't have been placed in that position. (Which has nothing to do with the Meyer and Cherry). But at the same time, WB had to do something to fill in the void that John and Tom left as they went on strike. Well there is my two cents worth in the topic. ~Garrett Duke~
  21. OK I got a question. . .will the movie go out everywhere or just to certian places? Will it eventually make it to a DVD? OK that's two questions but am curious about it seeing that I don't see any showings any where close to where I live. Have been looking forward to seeing this movie so hopefully I will be able to see it sometime. . . ~Garrett Duke~
  22. Well I was five years old or so when The Dukes stopped airing and if I remember right at the time it was The General Lee that generally grabbed my attention. When I started to watch it on TNN in 1997 my favorite character is was Bo and is still Bo - but Luke is right there behind him. You can't really have one without the other I don't think, they both add onto eachother's character. So I'd have to say since 1997. Keep it between the ditches Garrett Duke
  23. That is a great CD - Tim McGraw's Greatest Hits Volume 2. I have that in my CD player back home...then again I think all of Tim McGraw's albums are great . I enjoy his music. I think my favorite song on that one is "Real Good Man" and "The Cowboy in Me." Right now I am listening to "Ultimate Waylon Jennings" and "Luchenbach Texas" is on now. "Mamma's don't let your babies be Cowboys" is on next. Two of my most favorite song by him. Then again, I enjoy this whole album. ~Garrett Duke~
  24. My favorite movie is the first (only the first one) Smokey and The Bandit. Has good car chases as noted already plus good actors/actresses in it. There are a lot of similarities between Smokey and the Bandit and the Dukes. ~Garrett Duke~
