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 .

Charlie Parker (My first thoughts were the Dukes Sheriff played by Dick Sargent, or Judge Judy's bailiff, but they both spell their names 'Byrd' ).

I haven't featured Rhuebottom's far a while (mainly because it hasn't changed), so here it is in 'Baa, Baa White Sheep'. As you can see, they now sell "Farm Fresh Vegetables and Produce". No prizes for guessing what happens to the guy painting the building next door when the State Police car arrives. The fresh produce meets the same fate when Rosco hits it a couple of episodes later in 'The Great Santa Claus Chase'. A new business briefly appears in 'Good Neighbors, Duke'. The 'Yellow Pine Lumber Co.' occupies the alley between buildings 12 and 13. In the same episode, 'Fanny's Fabrics' makes way for a hardware store in building #12 (next to the 'Yellow Pine Lumber Co.'). The hardware store becomes a regular fixture in Hazzard Square for many more episodes. Also in 'Good Neighbors, Duke', when Bo and Luke go to visit the 'Cedar City Gazette' they enter the same Tri-State Press building used in 'Return of the Ridge Raiders'. Then it was said to be in 'the state capital'. Even though they go into building #15, the interior shots are filmed inside building #2 (its first appearance in this thread). You can just see on this screengrab that it has 'Cedar City Gazette' on the window, even though we don't see it from the outside. Through the open door you can see the side of building #30, and if you look really closely in the top left corner you can just make out the words 'Cedar City' on building #31 (which was the impound yard in several episodes of season 2).

Well done Roger (and his wife), and bonus points to MaryAnne for getting the name of the movie. Q. In 'Jude Emery' who quotes a line from the Sir Walter Scott poem 'Marmion' when they say "Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive."?: A) Uncle Jesse Jude Emery C) 'Snake' Harmon D) Boss Hogg E) Rosco F) Cooter (I have to confess, I knew the quote but had to look up where it was from )

A couple here from 'Baa, Baa White Sheep', both involving the General on the way back from Finchburg. When they drive up the bank to avoid Abe Lincoln's Caddy, the General slides down into a tree and hits it quite hard. I'm sure this was unintentional. Sorry the screengrab is dark - I've lightened it a bit, but it was in shadow. Shortly after this they jump the State Police car. For the jump Daisy has very obviously been replaced by a none-too-convincing dummy. The dummy seems to have lots of hair, but no face. I've inset a picture of how Daisy actually looked in that episode.

Alcatraz

Roger, it sounds like you and MaryAnne know the answer, so it's probably time for one of you to post it. Bonus points are available for naming the 1966 film the picture came from .

Another easily identifiable building that I haven't posted yet is the Court House. Here it is in 'The Late J.D. Hogg'. I think I incorrectly said that the court house was building #32 in my original post. Building #32 is actually the County Building, the Court House is building #33. Another sound stage is visible on the left. Also from 'The Late J.D. Hogg' is the 'Hazzard County Orphanage'. It's not the same building that was used in other episodes. In fact it's Boss's house. We only see it close up and the house only became Boss's house a couple of episodes back (and we didn't get a good look then), so I guess they thought we wouldn't notice. I've inset the sign from the front. Another mystery building appears in 'Uncle Boss'. Bo and Daisy are definitely on the roof of one of the buildings in Hazzard Square just before this, but there are no 3-storey buildings with a fire escape like this in Hazzard Square. My guess would be that it was filmed in the set just north of New York Street and Midwest Street. I can't seem to find a name for the street, but there are many taller buildings there. It gets used in later seasons too. I still don't know where this building is!. It was the State Courthouse in 'Duke of Duke', and CDoherty pointed out that it was the hospital in 'Welcome Back, Bo and Luke'. Here it's playing the part of 'State Capitol' in 'Uncle Boss'. Anyone else got a guess?.

As the mailbox proves, in 'The Hazzardville Horror' Boss has taken up residence in building #20. The only part of the house we get to see in this episode is the front door, but if you look back to post #25 you can see the whole house. It's not surprising that Boss was moving all his valuables out of his house - the haunted house was actually just 2 houses away. It was redressed to look derelict, and all the shots of the people arriving at the house were filmed in a studio. If you look back to the last picture of post #13 in this thread you can see how the house looked in 'Arrest Jesse Duke'. I haven't posted a picture of the church yet, so here it is in a shot from 'And in This Corner, Luke Duke'. On the left is the bunting around the boxing ring that was on the County Building side of the gazebo. Just to prove that the disappearance of 'Victors Bail Bonds' was temporary, here it is in 'The Late J.D. Hogg'. Because the guy runs across the road in front of the General it was hard to show both windows at once, but Victors is now in buildings 5 and 6.

Welcome to HNet. I've had a look around the internet, and it seems movie banners as large as yours are rare. Prices range hugely depending on desirability/rarity. Some of the smaller ones go for under $50, but there's a seller on ebay who's asking nearly $15k for an original 1977 Star Wars lobby banner. I'd guess you're looking at somewhere between the two. I used to work in the sign business, and a banner that big wouldn't have been cheap. I'd also recommend getting a tube to roll the banner around whilst it's in storage. This will prevent the creasing visible in your photos. A sign store or carpet store will probably be throwing large tubes away.

Here's the last four pictures from 'Enos Strate to the Top'. I've included the first one because it gives a better view of 'Seth M. Berley & Co.' and because the the word 'Hazzard' is missing from the theater sign. I nearly posted the next two pictures in the Mistakes (Bloopers)/Things I've Noticed About The Show thread. In the first one the bad guys are about to pull up in their white truck outside 'Victors Bail Bonds' which has moved from building #6 to building #5. They check out a car parked outside the Barber Shop, then drive off in the car parked by the bank. In the second picture, taken very soon after the first, the bad guys have driven around the back of the County Building and Court House and then back into the square. During this time their truck and the first car they looked at have vanished, and 'Victors Bail Bonds' has reverted to 'Rick's Pool Room and Lounge'. The gray car looks suspiciously like the one used in 'Southern Comfurts'. Also note that the word 'Hazzard has reappeared on the theater. The last picture from this episode isn't from Hazzard Square. The Dukes give Enos a lift to the airport and I'm just curious to know which airport it was. I was hoping it might be Van Nuys as it's just off Roscoe Blvd. The other most likely contender is Bob Hope Airport. If it's any help, the plane is a McDonnell Douglas DC-9-31 belonging to Hughes Airwest shortly before their merger with Republic Airlines. Maybe someone knows where they used to fly from. The General appears to have its headlights visible here - something you don't see very often.
