Thanks for the update, Garrett. I was checking the news every day at the start, but have to admit that I haven't looked since the beginning of the week. The latest article I found warned that even if he does come out of his coma, he'll probably never be the same again. Michael Schumacher: Brain specialist warns seven-time world champion 'will not be Michael Schumacher' if he survives head injury I was hoping that we've have better news by now, but these things take time. If his condition changes, I'll be sure to post an update.

A couple of times in season 1, Boss threatened to make Rosco "The night rent-a-cop at the drive-in deli on Frontage Road." Maybe the other nighttime lawmen were all "rent-a-cops" too.

I have no idea what you mean, Roger . BTW. One of the comments suggested that the girl in the middle had a flat battery .

"April 1 is April Fools' Day most everywhere else. But in Hazzard it's Sadie Hogg Day. That's when the women take over the Hazzard government. So, the day before, when women draw straws to see who does what, every man in Hazzard with half a hormone shows up to watch government in action." As Boss says, Sadie Hogg Day is "A day named in honor of my very own great-great-grandma. The very first woman in the South to have her own cotton gin."

I know the sort you mean (source: I worked as a sign-maker for 10 years), but I think it was just lettering on a blue background. I guess they realized it was unlikely to be seen at night.

Very few episodes of Dukes had scenes set at night. The only time I remember the police sign being illuminated is in 'Jude Emery'. Here's the picture I posted in the Hazzard Square thread (look over Bo's shoulder): The sign lost its neon tubes in later seasons, as you can see in this screengrab from 'Enos Strate to the Top' near the start of season 3 (also from the Hazzard Square thread):

It's the building on the corner of Midwest Street, a couple of doors away from the bank.

Welcome to HNet, Russell. I hope you enjoy your time in Hazzard .

Thanks, Roth. The only one that I already have a screengrab of is from 'Cool Hands, Luke & Bo'. The original Las Vegas sign says "Drive Carefully Come Back Soon".

I was watching a report from CES in Las Vegas earlier when they showed the back of the famous welcome sign (see above), and I thought I should do a Dukes version of that too .

The caravan racing reminded me of the motorhome (RV) racing on Top Gear: And that reminded me of the airport vehicle racing:

Thanks for the videos, Roth. I haven't seen a DAF for ages, although they were quite popular when I was young (as were the other cars in the videos). I wonder how those guys would do in a race with "the world's best backwards driver"? They also do caravan racing in the UK. NASCAR take note: this is how you make oval racing exciting! (Sorry, Garrett, couldn't resist )

I've straightened your picture a bit and tweaked the levels. The camera foreshortens the depth - the fence is around the square and we are looking right across it to the buildings beyond. My picture was from near the end of season 7, so the WHOGG sign wouldn't have been in the Chris/Byron photo.

I believe that the two buildings on the left are the ones in the background of the picture above, although not necessarily with the same storefronts. In the picture below, the bank is on the right. The cliff on the right of the General Lee picture looks more like Indian Dunes to me.

If he gets into the Sprint Cup Series, won't it be confusing wondering whether Chase will make The Chase?

I think I see the blooper - the door is open . My guess would be one of the ranches. I'm wondering if the light blue car (fourth up on the right) is Cooter's '68 Chevelle.

Great work, Jason. Those High Impact Mopar colors really look good on Chargers, and the '68-69 conversion is going well. I think I'd have been tempted to turn the black '68 into a Bullitt replica, but then I'd have to buy another Charger to become a General Lee . For now I'll have to make do with owning both as diecasts.

Welcome to HNet, Jason. I have a 1:18 model of a '71 Charger R/T in Go Green/Black, so you're obviously not the shy and retiring type with that color scheme . Like MeadowMufn, I'm also looking forward to seeing your pictures.

Welcome to HNet, Rich. That's a tricky question about the color. Obviously I'm tempted by orange, but the car seems so original and rare that I'd probably be swayed toward the factory color. Either way, as Mufn said, we want pictures .

Thanks, Garrett. I was hoping to have some news by now, but Schumacher's condition is still said to be critical but stable. The most recent reports suggest he wasn't going very fast at the time of the accident, and police are looking at footage from his head camera. A tourist has also come forward claiming to have captured the accident on their smartphone. Back in 2006, Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond was also put into an induced coma following a 288 mph dragster crash. He went on to make a full recovery, so obviously my fingers are crossed for Michael.

For those of us without CMT who may want to watch along with DVDs, this seems to be the list of episodes they're showing today: (All times are ET as far as I can tell. Season/episode #s are as I found them on a listings site.) 2:00 PM ... Season 5 Episode 20: Big Brothers Duke 3:02 PM ... Season 2 Episode 16: The Treasure of Hazzard 4:04 PM ... Season 2 Episode 11: People's Choice 5:06 PM ... Season 2 Episode 17: Officer Daisy Duke 6:08 PM ... Season 5 Episode 22: Daisy's Shotgun Wedding 7:11 PM ... Season 3 Episode 16: To Catch a Duke 8:18 PM ... Season 5 Episode 21: Farewell Hazzard 9:25 PM ... Season 2 Episode 15: Follow That Still Knowing US TV, there should be plenty of time during commercials to swap discs as they jump around the seasons .

I'm playing out of turn again for another obituary. Sadly, I read the news this morning that Phil Everly of the Everly Brothers had died at the age of 74. The Everly Brothers are probably best known for songs like , Wake Up Little Susie and (all previously posted in this thread), as well as being the most famous cousins of Jimmie Best. To fit with the previous song, I'm going with a duet that Phil recorded with Sondra Locke for the 1978 Clint Eastwood movie 'Every Which Way But Loose'.Don't Say You Don't Love Me No More - Sondra Locke & Phil Everly R.I.P. Phillip "Phil" Everly (January 19, 1939 – January 3, 2014)

It looks like someone finally uploaded the whole episode to YouTube a couple of months ago. Seeing as we don't have the Speed Channel here, it's the first chance I've had to watch it in its entirety.
