  1. Welcome to HazzardNet :).

  2. Welcome to HazzardNet :).

  3. I'm starting this post with a mystery building. At the end of 'Duke of Duke' we see the 'State Courthouse'. It's a large building that I can't find in the current WB backlots. If anyone knows where the building is, please let us know. Here's a longer shot. The building on the right appears to be just a façade, indicating that it's a movie set rather than on location. Moving on to 'The Runaway', we finally get a clear look at the 'Hazzard County Telephone Company'. This changes very little between episodes, although it's sometimes the 'Hazzard Telephone & Telegraph Co.' and occasionally has a Western Union sign on the window. Just for a change I thought I'd include an interior shot. Here we see telephone operator Mabel/Myrtle Tillingham talking to C.J. Holmes' men. The one closest to the camera is Lance 'Col. Decker' LeGault.
  4. Roger and BL were both correct there. Seeing as today is St. George's Day (patron saint of England) it's got to be a question from 'Duke of Duke'. Q. What drink did Uncle Jesse offer Gaylord, saying "... it's about as close as we get to class around here."?: A) Earl Grey Tea Assam Tea C) Darjeeling Tea D) English Breakfast Tea E) Sassafras Tea F) Lapsang Souchong Tea
  5. I've finally worked out which song chainsaw's post was about. The song 'Whiskey Man' appears towards the end of the movie 'Moonrunners'. It's by Lee Clayton, but doesn't seem to be on any of his albums (I only checked ebay and Amazon), and Google doesn't list much other than it was used in 'Moonrunners'.
  6. Building #31 sees a lot of changes in season 2. The doorway seen in the last post has disappeared by 'Duke of Duke' and the impound yard is back, although with wire gates instead of wooden doors. This is the scene where Bo, Luke and Gaylord are painting the road signs. These next 2 pictures show Daisy on her way to meet the boys with her food hamper. The first shows a sign for 'Jean Paré Cosmetics'. The second gives the store name as 'City Drugs'. The phone booth and 'Hazzard County Gazette' newspaper stand frequently appear outside Hazzard Theater. Initially I wasn't sure where this store was located, but then 'Officer Daisy Duke' came to my rescue. Daisy gives Boss a parking ticket outside this store and there are enough clues to identify it as building #26 (just across the road from Rhuebottom's). The store also sells 'Darleen Perfume' and has a sign saying 'Snack Shop'.

    Signs of Hazzard

    From 'Hazzard Connection' here's the sign for Augie Detweiller's Demolition Derby: Here's how it appeared in the show:

  12. Welcome to HazzardNet Jerry. I'm sure there are a lot of lurkers out there, I was one myself for a while . I hope that signing up enhances your enjoyment of the site. If you do live your dream to build a General, don't forget to share it with us. TomBo posted pictures of his restoration, and greenmonsta79 has just started another.
  13. I'll start this post with the better picture of 'Victor's Bail Bonds' that I promised a while back. This is building #6. I think someone came through this door in one episode even though there is nothing behind the façade (some buildings like the bank and post office have interiors that can be used for filming - this one doesn't). This shot shows what is beyond the alley between buildings 12 and 13 (Bo is being chased by Hughie in 'Arrest Jesse Duke'). Car chases often appear/disappear here, but we don't get a clear look like this very often. Another unusual angle in the same alley here, this time looking out towards the church. I have inset the sign for the 'Hotchkiss Funeral Home' which is on the door just off the left of this shot. The wall on the left is the side of the hotel. Even though season 2 started out with a 'Hotel' sign on the front of this building, it was missing a couple of episodes later, only to reappear again in the next episode. When Bo, Luke and Daisy go to investigate who's behind 'Dixie Auto Supply Inc.' they enter the County Building through this side door. This is actually the spot marked #31 on the map, the same building that served as the door to the Impound Garage in 'The Ghost of General Lee' (see above) - they just did a good job re-dressing it.
  14. It looks like you're on your own here Roger. I added in Charlie Daniels just to tempt you, and you went for Mel . The correct answer was Merle Haggard. By a strange coincidence, if you watch the interview with John and Tom that I posted a link to in the Niagara Falls Concert thread last night, Merle is John's first choice for acts he would like to see caught in the 'Celebrity Speed Trap'. Q. In the same episode ('Jude Emery'), who were Elmer and Cleo?.

    Hi geo, I hope you (and your grandson) enjoy being part of the HazzardNet family.
  16. Hallo Simon. Ich glaube, Sie sind unser erstes Mitglied in Dubai. (Ich kenne einige Deutsche, aber ich bin nicht sehr gut - ich Google mit diesen zu übersetzen) I think your English is better than my German, so let's continue in English - I just thought I'd welcome you in your native language. I hope you enjoy hanging around HazzardNet.
  17. Welcome to HazzardNet DukesLuvah. Sounds like you should be a great source of inside knowledge on Tom. Maybe you could even persuade him to stop by at HazzardNet between Broadway shows (Jimmie Best popped into the chat room at Christmas).
  18. How's this?: I see (or should that be hear?) the bit you mean. It's just after Rosco shouts "Get out of the way". That's certainly the only thing that appears on the subtitles. After listening to it a couple of times I'd say it's just gibberish that happens to sound like what you heard. I found that myself when I tried to post a link in the thread 'Manure . . . An Interesting Fact'. The page I was trying to link to had the same word in the URL. Still, HazzardNet is a family-friendly site, so no complaints.
  19. She's certainly a contender. As I mentioned last week in the Trivia thread, Mary-Margaret Humes is a former Miss Florida & 3rd runner-up to Miss USA 1975. I saw her in an episode of The Fall Guy a couple of week back. It was an episode called 'The Reluctant Traveling Companion' (S02E06) in which Colt has to bring her back from the East Coast by train (she won't fly), and they are traveling in a compartment next to Richard Burton who is trying to learn a script.
  20. Welcome to HazzardNet :).

  21. Eggman (goo goo g'joob (I am the Walrus - The Beatles)) You're right Roger, the females are cows and the males are bulls, just like whales.
  22. In 'Arrest Jesse Duke' the car strippers run 'Dixie Auto Supply Inc.' from building #1. This shot shows Bo, Luke and Daisy pulling up at the side of the store. This is the back entrance to the auto parts store. I'm pretty sure it's not at the back of building #1. The impound yard from season 1 (near building #24) had a corrugated steel fascia similar to this, so it may have been filmed there. The chase away from the auto parts store goes down the road past Boss's house. We don't ususally get to see this far down the road due to the sound stage at the end of it!.
  23. Just spotted this from 'Dukes Meet Cale Yarborough'. When we first see all 3 Generals come together the hood/fender mount for the camera is clearly visible at the bottom of the shot.
