I'm no mechanic, and always turn to Google to find out if a problem is easy enough to fix myself, or if I need to visit my equivalent of Cooter!

I found a thread with a similar-sounding problem here. The fuel pressure regulator is mentioned as a possibility.

They're just makin' their way the only way they know how, unfortunately that's just a little bit more than the law will allow.

A lot of these drivers were well before I took an interest in NASCAR, and I don't tend to watch/read much outside the actual races, so I'm quite pleased with 30/47. Two of them I got because of Dukes, and I'll credit another three to Garrett .

Some of the questions were lazy - I counted three where two of the wrong answers were the same as each other, another had Danica Patrick as a possible answer for a picture of a male driver, and my favorite where the driver's name was on his car in the background!

I happened upon the video below yesterday while looking for something completely unrelated to Dukes. It's an episode of the Sally Field series 'Gidget' from 1966.
 

As I was watching, a familiar face appeared. Peggy's only in it for about 20 seconds (4:22-4:42), and she's rather rudely credited simply as "Fat Lady".


 

Thanks for your comments. I'm sure Hazzard Square used to be Roger's favorite thread - he's so fickle .
I never cared much for the guy on the right. I always thought his acting was a little wooden .

Is it just me that pictures Cassandra Peterson when they see the name Elvira?



It must be my age .

It looks like John got away with only five hours in jail due to Daisy distracting the guards and Luke helping him escape overcrowding.

I've been trying to find out what's happening with Tom's legal troubles. Various allegations and charges were made last August/September, but not much has been written on the subject since then. Incidentally, Tom's appearing at Cooter's in Nashville this weekend - see here for more details.

It's in 'Jude Emery' in season 2. The full quote (which is a bit of a giveaway) is:
Boss: "Grady Byrd, the chances of you finding Snake Harmon by yourself rank right up there with Daisy Duke being made the next Pope."
Enos: "That's funny, Mr. Hogg, 'cause Daisy's a Methodist."

If, like me, you've missed this story, you can read it here. I went with the Fox News site for my link because that's who he spoke to, although they didn't bother to get his age right!

Thanks for revisiting the subject, Roger. For anyone who missed it first time around, we discussed the movie when it came out in 2013. You can see that discussion here.

The movie was written by Janeen and Michael Damian - that's James Best's daughter and son-in-law. Again for those who may not know, Janeen played Mary Lou in "A Baby for the Dukes".

It was Reginald D Hunter who I saw tonight. I was going to post a video of his stand-up, but most of it contains a fair amount of swearing, so I decided to go for an interview instead (there's a little of his stand-up in the middle).
 
 

Danica was driving an Indy car in  the Indy 500 yesterday. Although Indy and Formula 1 cars are both open-wheeled, that's about as far as the silmilarities go. It was IndyCar where Danica originally made her name, before she switched to NASCAR. I don't follow IndyCar, but the commentators mentioned that the cars had lower downforce than previously at this year's race, and most of the crashes were cars spinning while following in the "dirty" air of other cars.

I got to see most of the Indy 500. Who would've thought that both races would have Aussie winners? Congratulations to Daniel Ricciardo and Will Power.

I recently discovered that they've made two seasons of a French version of Wheeler Dealers with Gerry and Aurélien (instead of Mike and Edd/Ant). By the end I was starting to recognize more and more of the car parts in French, despite last studying the language over 30 years ago and forgetting most of the little I knew since then.

Thanks for posting the video, Roth. It's good to see Tom enjoying himself in Europe again. I think he likes meeting Dukes fans - the owners of General Lee replicas I met at last year's American car show had both met him. He's certainly quite happy to talk about the show, and is very generous with his time.

Even more so if Roger's the first one to post it!

I haven't bothered to read up on the subject, but they were discussing it on the radio earlier. Apparently, the "Laurel" sound is at a lower frequency and the "Yanni" is at a higher frequency. Older people tend to hear "Laurel", although if you listen to the clip for a long time, some people who originally heard "Laurel" start to hear "Yanni".

This is a Ben Jones quote rather than Cooter. In the season 6 DVD extra 'Back Where We Started: The Real Hazzard County' Ben and Sonny are reminiscing about the first time they saw Cathy.
Ben says 'I tell you ... first time ... I said that girl'd make a bulldog break its chain, make a freight train go up a dirt road, make the deacon drop his bible.'
It was great seeing how they still got on so well after 27 years.

I know that this is a very old thread, but it seemed silly to start a new one.
I was watching the 1965 movie "The Loved One" earlier, and spotted a familiar face playing the lead. Here's Robert Morse, aka. Dewey Hogg, as Dennis Barlow.

The movie's a rather strange yet enjoyable satire on the funeral business in Los Angeles. It dates from two years before "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", the Robert Morse movie which had its title parodied in his Dukes episode, "How to Succeed in Hazzard".
In "The Loved One", Robert pulls off a quite convincing English accent throughout, although a brief attempt at what I took to be Scots isn't as good. There's quite a list of well-known co-stars, including Rod Steiger, Milton Berle, James Coburn, Sir John Gielgud, Roddy McDowall and a cameo for Liberace as a casket salesman. Additionally, Lionel "When they met...it was moider" Stander plays a newspaper staff writer masquerading as an advice guru, and Paul Williams (Little Enos in SATB) gets his first acting role as a boy genius rocket maker, despite being in his mid-20s at the time.

If you write me a check for $70,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, I'll send you one .
