The competent Rosco from Season 1.
I remembered reading the same article, but it took me a while to track it down. Take a look about two thirds of the way down the page at mygenerallee.com - it mentions finding two 1974 Dodge Monacos labeled Police 1 and Police 2. There's also a small picture.

One Word Song Titles
Sadly, I'm posting again because of another death. Today it was announced that Merle Haggard had died on his 79th birthday. To keep with this thread's theme, I'll post this track first. Carolyn - Merle Haggard But I can't do a tribute without mentioning this song. Okie From Muskogee - Merle Haggard

So glad that Dukes wasn't a traditional comedy of the 70s and 80s
The makers of M*A*S*H didn't want a canned laughter track, but the network did. In the end they compromised, and had laughter on most scenes, but never in the operating room. When the series was originally shown in the UK, the BBC broadcast it without the laughter track, which is how I prefer to watch it.

"Farewell, Hazzard" conceived as a possible finale to the show?
I don't remember how the episodes were originally shown, but, according to IMDb, it looks 'Carnival of Thrills' and '10 Million Dollar Sheriff' were screened back-to-back, but the two parts of 'Undercover Dukes' were shown a week apart. Now that we have DVDs, it doesn't make much difference as there's no waiting. The two-parters also let us have slightly deeper storylines.

Forum Software Update
I see that there's a new bar above the activity streams which lets you refine your search. It seems to work fine, but the white background doesn't really match the HNet color scheme. On a separate issue, since the switch to IP.Board, I've noticed that the posts are no longer numbered (each thread used to start with #1). Does anyone else miss this?

The Hazzard Garage (Cooter's Garage)
Before anyone questions Mark's spelling, Rhuebottom's was sometimes misspelled Rheubottom's on the show, so the model is screen-accurate! Both spellings are visible in the screengrab below, which I first posted in the Hazzard Square thread.

I read last night that progressive rock legend Keith Emerson had died at the age of 71. Here's a track from Emerson, Lake and Palmer's 1971 album of the same name. Tarkus - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Dalles Comic-Con 2016 Dukes Panel
Thanks for the link, auster. It's good to see all three of the actors together again and getting on so well. Justin, the flag controversy gets mentioned at about eight and a half minutes in.

Is it just me or did the show get darker near the end of season 5?
Hollingsworth Morse directed several episodes in season 5, but he didn't write any. Other directors of season 5 include Denver Pyle, Sorrell Booke and Paul Baxley. The writing credits are split between Si Rose, William Raynor, Myles Wilder, Bruce Howard, Len Kaufman, Jim Rogers, Martin Roth and Simon Muntner. According to 'The Dukes of Hazzard: The Unofficial Companion', as well as merchandising, Tom and John's season 5 walkout was also about the poor quality of the scripts. John is quoted in the book calling Myles Wilder "an arrogant cuss" who "could not care less".

The new forum software doesn't use BBCode. Just paste in the image location without the IMG tags. Press Enter, and the image should appear. I still prefer the Preview method, but it's not going to happen.

DOH actors clone
I know this one is a little obscure, but here's a look-alike I spotted in 'Heiress Daisy Duke'. On the left is Nancy Hinman as Vonnie. On the right is singer, songwriter, and record producer Amanda Warner (aka. MNDR), as she looked when she featured on Mark Ronson's 2010 hit 'Bang Bang Bang'.

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 .
