Now I know the forum better i found out about the views, And i can't thank you guys enough for looking through it. Even if you do not comment.
Yeah, and he didn't speak loud enough either.

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 .

Thanks to you Hoss there's a lot of things related to the Dukes of Hazzard that I've never seen before and now I can add another to the list.
This is the first time I've ever seen an older picture of Peggy. Thanks so much for sharing it.
I sure miss her. What a beautiful lady Peggy (and Lulu) was!

Interesting article, Meadowmufn. Elvira must be a real catch, as she was pushing for the maximum jail sentence against John. Also interesting to see that they were in talks for another movie on the Hallmark Channel before Tom had his issues. 
Bottom line, he should have definitely gotten a prenup, and been more careful with his money over his lifetime. I’d still feel for the guy though, even if I wasn’t a Dukes fan. 

Cue the Oak Ridge Boys "My heart's on fire for Elvira"....or at least in John's case it used to be ...."oom boppa oom boppa mou mou"

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."

Faith!

This reminds me of a quote by Henry Ford. I'm not sure if it's true or not but I've heard it several times. Back then he didn't want to paint new cars different colors so he said "They can have one in any color they'd like as long as it's black."

That's cool! In the US you'd probably be labeled a racist if you played one. Everybody is so quick to label folks nowadays. I always tell people to watch the first 15 minutes of the very first Dukes episode. You'll see a white man and black man with their arms around each other. The Dukes was not a racist show! Political correctness drives me crazy. Sorry for getting off the subject. 

All he needs to do is steal some more slot machines and stick them in the local businesses. Then he can get out of this mess and save the orphanage at the same time. It worked back in '79 and it can work again. 

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!

By all accounts, John is a very nice guy. His mistake was not getting a prenuptial agreement with that banshee of an ex-wife. 
I got his autograph at the 2005 Superman festival in Metropolis Illinois.  He stayed almost 2 hours past his scheduled time signing autographs for fans.  I was near the end of the line, and his wife didn’t look pleased with him.  From her demeanor, I’d gladly pay 18k a month to not be married to that demon!!
 

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".

I've heard about the jump track before, but the Slam Shifters Raceway is new to me.
The puzzle is very interesting as the puzzle is a behind the scenes photo of the jump where the General is about to hit the last car of the pile!

I have been a huge fan of "The Dukes of Hazzard", and have been collecting its Memorabilia, since the age of 7.
Here is a photo of my collection.

Howdy everyone. We're new here. Wife and I are watching Dukes on Amazon. We're currently on Season 5.

Great that there's a great looking forum here and will be exploring a lot.

We're both deaf (thanks to captions) and we've been fans of the show ever since the show premiered.

Sad about James Best's passing not too long ago.

We've never met any of the casts, but my wife's best friend from GA has met John Schneider.

Chat ya'll laters.

Yiz (& Liz, the wife)

 

I'm going to do some walking today, trying to get my strength back. Enjoying the sunshine and quiet in our backyard, well... except for all the baby starlings that make a ruckus at our feeders now and then.

Good observation. One thing that amazes me about the Dukes of Hazzard. Despite all the faults and bloopers somehow it is still the greatest television show in the history of our vast Universe. 

On the way to the dirt track last night I was wearing my 01 hat and Northeast Ohio Dukes shirt when "What was I thinking?" came on the radio so I got to hear "hood sliding like Bo Duke.".......and one of the races had an orange 01 car. It didn't do well but still, it was a great night to live like a Duke boy. 

That was a horrendous crash....khee khee....it would have kilt ten ordinary men. 

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.

My husband saw a lady wearing a Dukes of Hazzard shirt in the grocery store the other day. He told her, "I LOVE that show!"
