All of these pictures are from 'The Great Bank Robbery'. The first shows that 'Victors' still appears on the window of building #6, although the 'Bail Bonds' bit is missing. I'm not sure if the business is open, but at least the building is getting a new coat of paint (and so is Cletus!). Building #5 now houses the Tailor Shop. This is the Moss Hotel sign on top of building #2. It's visible in the background in each of the first three seasons and actually pre-dates Dukes (see earlier picture from the movie Hooper). The hotels that featured in other episodes were usually in building #13 or building #15. Despite its longevity, I don't remember this one being used in any episodes. On the right the window sign for 'Gordon & Lowell' is still visible above the bank. It looks like the other hotel isn't the only building up for lease in season 4. Rhuebottom's looks like it's out of business, and Boss Hogg is listed as the contact for this one (see inset sign). Maybe they could no longer afford to replace all the stock destroyed by Rosco. You can see the two different spellings of Rhuebottom's/Rheubottom's again in this picture. Even though it appears closed it has acquired a new sign since season 3. This is the house I've listed as building #21. It's right on the corner of the square near Cooter's, so why Bo and Luke thought it'd be a good place to hide the General is a mystery. It doesn't get used in this episode, and try as I might I still can't read the sign over the door. If it's still there and readable in later episodes I'll post a picture.

jigsaw I should probably explain this tenuous link. About 30 years ago I had a circular jigsaw puzzle of a blue jay, and that's what I thought of first.

They'd probably be OK so long as they had a Bugs Bunny doll to hide them in .

I think you may have trouble with a Dukes/Dirty Harry crossover fanfic MaryAnne, although I can't deny that the thought amused me for a while this morning. Of course, Mama Max told Rosco he reminded her of Clint Eastwood in the Reunion movie. Can you imagine Rosco with a .44 Magnum? - "... you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well do ya dipstick? khee, khee." Back to the pictures. In 'Coltrane vs Duke' a hedge suddenly appears between the church and building #19. Normally it's a through road (as seen in several previous pictures). I think the only reason they included it was to snap off the General's CB aerial. I had to wait until this episode to get a decent shot of building #13. Formally the hotel, it's now for lease. The inset sign is from a later episode, and seems to indicate that it's being advertised as a "Light Mfg. [manufacturing] Property". Bo and Luke went to a lot of trouble evading Sheriff Little to get Doc. Appleby from Chickasaw where his patient was giving birth to twins. Strange that when they finally get there Doc. Appleby turns out to be in Boss's house on Hazzard Square!. Not much to say about this one. In 'The Fugitive' Boss's motorcyle buyer (Leroy) is on the loading bay behind the church (building #17).

Season 4 kicks off with 'Mrs. Daisy Hogg' and a make-over for the Hazzard Theater. As you can see it's now the 'Hazzard Picture Palace'. Sorry about the blurry image - Rosco's head kept getting in the way of the closer shots. A better picture will follow. Strangely, in the next episode ('Double Dukes') it briefly returns to 'Hazzard Theater'. Later on Bo and Luke investigate the ink they found. Both of the next two pictures are taken in French Street, which is behind the Court House/County Building. On the left building #27 which is an antiques shop here. On the right is building #26 which used to be 'City Drug', but now appears to be vacant. They find out about the ink from Mr. Pruitt from 'Pruitt's Printing'. This is building #28. I've included this picture from 'Double Dukes' to show the business over the Drug Store. It belongs to a dentist named either Dr. Oram or Dr. Cram, I can't tell which. This is the phoney Bo and Luke as you can tell be the serious expressions.

Sorry Roger, MaryAnne is right (as usual). I'm not sure if she only answers the ones she knows, or just doesn't like to show-off by answering them all . Incidentally, saddle tan is the interior color of General Lee. Q. In 'The Return of Hughie Hogg', when Hughie presents the "brand-spanking-new used fire truck" who is on the hood?.

bang Thought I'd continue the onomatopoeia theme.

At the end of 'Diamonds in the Rough' the Dukes get presented with a commendation from the FBI. For some reason the 'Commendation' line is in a slightly larger, slightly lighter, and different typeface (compare the capital 'C' with the one in 'Citizenship'). It almost looks like there was a capital 'A' under the capital 'C'. I wonder if someone initially typed 'Accommodation' or something similar - your guess is as good as mine.

Another shot from 'The Hack of Hazzard' shows Rosco looking for expired parking meters. In the background is the side of the church, and the 'Freight Terminal & Bus Station' sign is still visible. Here's a better look at Rhuebottom's produce display with a new banner and prices. If you look back a few posts to the picture of Rhuebottom's from 'Baa, Baa White Sheep' you'll see that the main shop sign says 'Rhuebottom's', but the sign on the wall above is spelled 'Rheubottom's'. The last picture from season 3 is a closer view of the other side of the church from 'The Canterbury Crock'. Now to clear up a loose end. I wasn't sure where Doc. Petticord's house was (see above), but I'm pretty sure it's this house on the left, which is the one next to Boss's house. It's the only red brick house down that road, and has the right pillars (originally I mistook the double pillars for single, uneven ones) - hopefully I'll get a better look in a later episode. You also get another chance to see the haunted house next door. This was taken from 'Arrest Jesse Duke' in season 2.

No, it's 3-4 miles north of Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank. As Mufn pointed out, it's sometimes referred to as Burbank Airport. Van Nuys Airport is about 10 mile away as the crow flies (or should that be as the General flies). You can see the map here. On to 'The Hack of Hazzard'. Bo and Luke pick up Miz Tisdale's cab at what appears to be her house. I've inset a closer shot of the mailbox from a later scene - I'm sure I can make out "Miz ___dale". I didn't number this house originally as I didn't remember it being used. It's next to building #19 and faces the church. Here's the rarely seen side of the church looking from the cab. 'Uncle Charlie's Upholstering', where the cab seats are taken, is down the alley between buildings 12 and 13. As you can see, the 'Yellow Pine Lumber Co.' only lasted a few episodes because now it's gone. This one isn't in Hazzard Square, in fact I don't know where it is, but since we've already had 2 or 3 different locations for the 'Hazzard Police Impound Yard' I thought I'd include this one too. There's what looks to me like a nice blue '67 Camaro on the left.

You know what they say Roger: "When life gives you melons, you might be dyslexic." The pickup trucks were from the Yellow Pine Construction Co., so they're probably connected. Q. In 'The Hack of Hazzard' what color was the interior of Miz Tisdale's cab?: A) Black Red C) Green D) Blue E) Saddle Tan Remember, they take the seats out.

I spotted this amusing continuity error in 'The Hack of Hazzard'. As the bad guys leave in pursuit of Daisy and the mail, Uncle Jesse runs out of the Post Office. Miz Tisdale would not be pleased to see that in her absence the mailbox from the sidewalk has gone missing. Luckily, while Jesse's back is turned, the mailbox reappears. The guy in the red plaid shirt also seems to have got himself a new girl .

I found this map in 'Duke vs. Duke' from season 3. Bo is showing Daisy which route he'll use in the race on Luke's map. In the episode the map appears upside-down, so the first thing I did was rotate it. It didn't take long to realise that the map looked familiar. It looks like a copy of the same map used in 'Double Dukes', but with different hand written names (you can see that map a few posts back where I identified Redding, CA. as the real Colonial City). On the right is what looks like 'Drexel County', which is a new one to me. Other names that are readable are Shelby Road, Chalk Hill, Partridge? Farm, (unclear) Indian Caves, (unclear) Gulch and (unclear) Practice Area. Maybe someone with better eyes than me can identify some more. Here's the real map of where California meets Oregon and Nevada. You can see it for yourself on Google Maps. In the top map Bo's finger would be about halfway between the two 139s at the bottom of this map.

cricket A sport Robin Williams once described as "baseball on valium". Sounds like you have 'speluncaphobia'. I was watching a TV show just yesterday that mentioned phobias in passing. Fear of caves didn't come up (thanks Google), but fear of bats did. It's called 'chiroptophobia'. They also included batophobia, which has nothing to do with bats - it's the fear of being near tall buildings.

Sorry Roger, it's not Rhuebottom's. The answer can be found in the Hazzard Square thread - I can't give a better hint than that .

Thanks CD, you're right. I've checked out those episodes and it's the same building in both. 'Comrade Duke' shows a bit more background, but I'm still not sure where it is. Maybe I'll spot some more clues by the time I get to that episode. I'm working through the episodes in order in the hope of not forgetting anything, so I appreciate it when someone remembers details from later ones. This post returns to Hazzard Square. We've seen the hotel (building #13) before, but in 'By-Line Daisy Duke' it's had a makeover with a new awning over the door, lamps either side of the door, and potted plants along the front. On the right is building #14. Just like building #23, it doesn't seem to have a door, and usually only appears when Bo and Luke are climbing up the drainpipe to the roof. The sign advertises 'St. Jacob's Oil - The Great German Remedy'. I'm not sure of it's relevance as it was one the "quack liniments of the 1880s". Read more about 'St. Jacob's Oil' here. In 'The Return of Hughie Hogg', building #31 becomes the home for Hughie's "brand-spanking-new used fire truck". Building #30 (on the right with the green awning) has a 'Funeral Home' sign, but it's not clear enough to read any more. From the same episode we find out that the relatively new hardware store in building #12 is called 'Joe's Hardware' - just before Hughie takes it over. Building #2 becomes the 'Hazzard County Gazette' in 'By-Line Daisy Duke' (it was previously the 'Cedar City Gazette'). We only get to see a close-up of the window and the interior in this episode. This screengrab is from 'The Great Hazzard Hijack' where we see it from further away. Strangely, the interior appears much smaller in 'The Great Hazzard Hijack'.

I have four mystery locations here. I don't think any of them were actually in Hazzard Square, but I'm curious to know where they are. The first is Doc. Petticord's house from 'Duke vs. Duke'. It doesn't look like any of the houses in Hazzard Square, and the pillars don't seem to line up, so it may have just been a sound stage. We only see it in close-up. A shortened version of the General heading to Atlanta is used again to set the scene in 'Along Came a Duke'. Then we see the 'Atlanta Museum'. I've tried to find out what this building is, but had no luck. I'm guessing it's somewhere around LA. The back of the museum isn't nearly as fancy. It was probably just the back of a sound stage or one of the other sets. The final unknown of this post is from near the end of 'Along Came a Duke'. Was 'Hazzard High School' filmed at a real school?. The buildings don't look like sets, so it could have been shot on location. Does anyone know where?.

I try to randomly pick where the right answer goes - guess I was getting predictable . Oh what a mangled verse you write, when first you practice to delight (© me ). Roger and BL got the right answer, and BL correctly completed the quote (I thought it would have been too easy if I had included that bit). Q. In 'Good Neighbors, Duke' what is the name of the company that Bo and Luke get the fencing wood from?. (I'm not giving multiple choice because I've posted the answer in another thread in the last week - who says I'm not good to y'all?)

This selection of pictures consists of wide views of different parts of Hazzard Square from season 3. The first one is from near the end of 'Baa, Baa White Sheep'. Luke, Daisy and Abe are about the jump into the side of the Court House. The camera must have been near building #21 looking between buildings 18 and 19. Strangely, the shots of Luke, Daisy and Abe all show the other side of the square in the background. Looking the other way from roughly the same spot is this picture of Cooter's and Rhuebottom's from 'Duke vs Duke'. This picture is from 'To Catch a Duke'. It was taken somewhere around building #4 looking towards the gazebo. In the background you can see buildings 19 and 21. The last of the wide shots is from 'Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane'. Many episodes re-use a high-level, scene-setting shot of the County Building. This one is actually taken from the County Building, and shows the bad guys arriving in a deserted Hazzard while everyone else is at the wedding. If you look closely at building #15 (the white one in the middle) you can see the seat from the bus station that was used in 'Return of the Ridge Raiders' (see above).

Snoopy

Roger, did you forget that Yancy Peckinpaugh is an alias of Uncle Jesse (Route 7-11)?. So maybe he did invent ethanol after all .
