Most attractive female guest/minor character on the show.
You did post it where I thought you would . I like Robin Mattson too, but I think she gets overlooked sometimes because Diane Benson wasn't a nice character. A lot of fans don't like the way she treated Bo. Here's an image that I've previously posted in a couple of other threads. The one on the left is from her first movie, 'Namu, the Killer Whale' in 1966, with 'Carnival of Thrills' in the middle, and a more recent shot on the right.

Mistakes (Bloopers)/Things I've Noticed About The Show
Justin, you're welcome to use my pictures in other threads on HNet. Just include a quick credit/reference to where you found them - something like "Hoss posted this in the Bloopers thread". If you use them where I think you want to use them, I nearly posted them there myself .

The Hazzard Garage (Cooter's Garage)
I've just checked out a well-known auction site, and you can get a 3-user Home and Student version of CorelDraw X6 for $49.99. The latest version (X7) is $129.99 for the Home and Student version from coreldraw.com. The full commercial-use version is $499!

Since 'Undercover Dukes' has been mentioned a couple of times, I thought a screengrab was in order. On the left is Lydia Cornell as Mary Beth, with Stepfanie Kramer as Anna Louise on the right. And 'Good Neighbors, Duke' was mentioned by justinpcoltrane. Here's Cynthia Leake as Esther Venable.

Real Stuff in Hazzard
Well spotted, ncDukeBoy01. Here's Bo across the street from Mellow Mushroom Pizza. And here's a picture of their first store in Spring Street. While the Starr Records building is still standing, the other side of Spring Street has been obliterated by modern developments.

Hazzard apartments
You get to see Cooter's Farm in 'Mason Dixon’s Girls'. I don't recall seeing where Cletus lived.

Hazzard apartments
I don't remember any apartments. Enos is seen in a room at the boarding house in 'Close Call for Daisy', and 'Hughie Hogg Strikes Again' has a plot which threatens Cooter's garage with demolition so that 'Hogg's Happy Hacienda' (or Hoggominiums) can be built. Here's a picture from my Hazzard Square thread.

Brodie's Camaro?
It's listed on IMCDb as a 1969 model. Someone called 'Skid' comments, "This one is a little confused...it has SS side stripes, a Z/28 grille, and the painted cowl on the hood is possibly Yenko or Baldwin-Motion inspired."

Were there any TVs in Hazzard county
EnosIsMyHero asked if the Dukes had a television back in 2013. You can see that thread here. Roth posted a couple of screengrabs showing a television at the Duke Farm, but it's not on. I also commented that Robby and co. watched a NASCAR race on TV in hospital in 'Cale Yarborough Comes to Hazzard'. That's the only time I remember anyone watching TV, other than showing CCTV images or reviewing Hughie Hogg's tape.

Forum Software Update
I've just noticed something strange in the Hazzard Square thread (nothing new, I hear you say ). Take this post as an example - it looks like the quotataion marks have changed into strange characters, e.g. that appears to be “Roger’s Drug Storeâ€. I know I could edit them manually, but is there any way to do a global replace? I expect there are other posts affected by this.

BossHogg 1 is here
Welcome to HNet, BossHogg1. You're correct, Roger. Cathy only missed 'To Catch a Duke' in season 3.

Forum Software Update
I think the "Featured Posts" section takes up a little too much space at the moment. On my screen, the word "Forums" is only just visible at the bottom of page before you scroll down. Is it possible to reduce the items to a single line each? Otherwise, I think that four items would be about the right number, but I'd hate to decide what to leave out. Is there any way to display a random selection of four from a larger group of around ten? Another option could be to put the "Featured Posts" in the sidebar instead of the "Recent Posts". Now that we have the "New Posts" menu item and the ability to create custom activity streams, the "Recent Posts" area seems less necessary. On an unrelated issue, there doesn't seem to be a "Members List" option in the new forum.

Forum Software Update
The colors are looking good now. I was just starting to get used to the round avatars, and updated mine so that it wasn't cropped, but I do prefer the square ones. Also, all the existing avatars were uploaded with the assumption that they'd be square, so some worked better than others as circles. Now I'm going to try living with new look for a bit longer before I make any more requests . Thanks for all the work you've put in, Meadowmufn.

Dukes of Hazzard Instrumental backing music.
Someone asked a question about the banjo music back in 2010. I replied that Larry McNeely was named as the banjo player on the background music. Here's also credited as playing the steel guitar on the 1982 Dukes of Hazzard album, although I don't known which tracks he played on. Back in 2010, I could only find one Larry McNeely video on YouTube, but now there's more. It's not the exact music from the show, but some of the tracks have a similar feel. Here's the title track from his 1976 album 'Rhapsody for Banjo': The track below is also on 'Rhapsody for Banjo', and should be spelled 'Honeysuckle Rose. Although it has vocals, I can imagine the Duke Boys driving to the instrumental parts.
