Welcome to HNet, Knelb4zod. Roger did mention Loretta Lynn, but as he points out, she wasn't caught in the speed trap.

Cletus claimed he'd been taking KARATE lessons in 'Lawman of the Year'.

I'd have to add 'Coward of the County' and 'The Gambler' to your choice, Roger. Now, should I walk away or should I run - I never seem to know!

I wasn't expecting the reunion to be on a British morning magazine show. BTW. I converted your link to an embedded video - I think more people are likely to watch it that way. Here's David Soul on 'Top Gear':

The show that Rick left for was "Amanda's". He played the chef, Earl Nash, at Amanda's by the Sea - a hotel run by Bea Arthur's character Amanda. The show was based on the iconic British sitcom "Fawlty Towers", but was cancelled after 13 episodes. The show also starred Fred McCarren, who was Neil Bishop in "The Big Heist". "Fawlty Towers" famously (at least on this side of The Pond) only ran for two seasons of six episodes each (six episodes is the standard season length for British sitcoms), and they were four years apart due to the stars/writers getting divorced in-between. Here's the first episode of "Amanda's". I assume by the picture quality that it hasn't been released on DVD or repeated lately. Rick appears at just over eight minutes in.

Kenny's version isn't the original, although it is the version I like best. Ol' Red was written by James "Bo" Bohon, Don Goodman, and Mark Sherrill, and first recorded by George Jones in 1990. Kenny's version came out in 1993 and Blake's version in 2001.

You obviously haven't read any of Hobie's previous posts.

I'm currently watching season 2 of 'The Fall Guy'. In just the third episode (Colt's Outlaws), the two main stunts were done using obvious miniatures in a show about stuntmen! There's also a lot of terrible back projection. The bad guy in this one is played by Ramon Bieri, who was JJ Carver in 'Undercover Dukes'. Like 'Undercover Dukes', this is also a two-parter, but the second episode is called 'Colt Breaks Out'. I'm also enjoying spotting Dukes guest stars popping up in 'The Fall Guy'. This one has Beans Morocco and L.Q. Jones who both appeared in two episodes of Dukes.

The eXplosion destroyed five years of car magazines!

No, I posted one, which is why we somehow went N, O, P, O, Q, P, R. I really didn't think the alphabet was that hard to follow!

Amos PETERSDORF (another of the Ridge Raiders) Did you mean Newtie in 'Return of the Ridge Raiders'?

No. They are both Cadillac Series 62s, but Grady's momma drove a 1959 model while Newtie drove a 1961.

I'm not sure that the 8-minute highlights will do justice to today's British Grand Prix. There had been rain before the race leaving most of the track wet. Franco Colapinto was due to start from the pits after crashing yesterday, but in the end he didn't make it, leaving 19 cars on the grid. They all started the formation lap on the intermediate tires, but several cars peeled into the pits before the start to gamble of slick tires. Max Verstappen kept the lead at the start, but it was soon clear that Red Bull's low downforce setup wasn't going to work so well in the wet conditions. Behind them, Liam Lawson got hit by Esteban Ocon on the first lap and Gabriel Bortoleto spun off on slick tires on lap 4. Oscar Piastri took the lead on lap 8. A couple of laps later, the rain began to fall. All the leaders pitted for new intermediate tires, and although Lando Norris had just passed Max on the track, a slow pit stop for Lando saw the positions swap back. The rain then got worse, bringing out the first full safety car. Another safety car came out when Isack Hadjar hit the back of Kimi Antonelli's car. If you watch the video below, you'll see that the visibility was close to zero. Kimi had to retire his car a few laps later. At the end of the second safety car we had the most controversial call of the race. Leading the pack and controlling their speed, Oscar accelerated and then braked trying to warm his tires. Max thought he was starting to push and briefly passed him, which is not allowed behind the safety car. Oscar was deemed to have driven erratically and given a 10-second penalty, which the commentators and his team thought was harsh. At the next corner, Max spun his car and slipped to 9th and then 10th. With about 8 laps to go and the track drying, the drivers finally switched to slick tires. Lewis Hamilton had been getting faster as the circuit dried, but in the end he could only make it back to fourth place. Lando became the 13th British winner of the British Grand Prix ahead of team mate Oscar. The result of the day and driver of the day was Kick Sauber's Nico Hulkenberg in third. He started 19th and last on the grid and claimed his first podium finish in 239 race starts. After his spin. Max eventually climbed back to finish fifth. Lando is now only 8 points behind Oscar in the drivers' championship, while McLaren look to have an unassailable lead in the constructors' championship with another 43 points today. Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes each only had one scoring driver with 12, 10 and 1 points respectively. You can see the highlights here. It's now three weeks until the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa.

Because Hughie arrived in disguise and didn't want to be recognized.

I'm hoping to see it later this week.

The only other one I've found is 'The Haunting of J.D. Hogg' from season 7. It originally aired on 4 January, 1985, which was Sorrell Booke's 55th birthday. With the exception of the first season which was a mid-season replacement, Dukes generally aired between mid-September and mid-March. Weirdly, most of the lead actors had birthdays in spring and summer. I only looked up the main actors, so it's possible that some of the guest stars' episodes aired on their birthdays.
