  1. There's been a death in my family. Aunt Carol's sister Millie. They just talked last Saturday and she looked pretty good, now she's gone. Millie's son found her dead today. ๐Ÿ˜ข
  2. Season 1 A Matter of Life and Breath Fred comes to breakfast wearing a mask. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Lamont:"Take that ridiculous mask off!" ๐Ÿ˜‚ Fred:"I'm just tryin' to protect myself." ๐Ÿ˜‚ Lamont:"Pop what is this? Why is there tape on the silverware?" Fred:"Oh that. See, I labeled the silverware. I didn't wanna get yours mixed up with mine. Everything with an F on it is mine. F for Fred. Yours is marked C." Lamont:"C"? Fred:"Yeah C. For Contaminated." ๐Ÿ˜‚
  3. Why did The Dukes of Hazzard General Lee 1969 and 1968 Dodge Chargers change from the small push bar that was used early on to the wider push bar later on?
  4. Calling out some hat-truth! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Just stumbled upon a Benford Yacht Hat eBay listing claiming to be 'vintage'... but wait, the company only started selling these hats in 2016! ๐Ÿค” New hat, new label, not vintage. Anyone else think 'vintage' is a stretch here? ๐Ÿ˜‚ #hats #vintagevsnew #ebayfinds A 9 year old company is hardly vintage. ๐Ÿ˜‚ 2025- 2016 9 Maybe they mean vintage style hat? They should say vintage style hat then instead of vintage hat. Vintage hat implies one of age.
  5. The blue car in Season 6 Twin Trouble that Ben Thomas (Cash Calloway) rolls over, is that the same car in Season 7 Happy Birthday General Lee that Sam Melville (Rick) and Janie Fricke (Ginny) steal after breaking out of Capitol City Jail?
  6. Just dropped some knowledge on someone on YouTube! Someone was complaining about not being able to watch full Dukes of Hazzard episodes on TV Stunter's channel, so I had to remind them it's all about copyright - only increments are allowed! ๐Ÿ˜Ž Who else loves getting into those Dukes of Hazzard details? ๐Ÿค  #TheDukesOfHazzard #CopyrightMatters
  7. Season 4 Trouble at Cooter's. Bo:"You know, I just can't figure out how Rosco knew where we were all those times. First at Stone Canyon, then at Cooter's Garage." Luke:"Unless somebody told him." Bo:"Besides Cooter, nobody knew about it." Luke:"Except Bonnie." Bo:"Yeah, but come on, why would Bonnie wanna-?" Luke:"It doesn't matter why! What we gotta do, is get back to Cooter's, an' get that float valve put in this car so it runs right! Bo:"Shoot! We sent Cooter out to Stone Canyon to meet us with that float valve." Luke:"Shoot, that's the easy part. All we do is raise him on the CB an' cut him off. Hey Crazy C, this here's the Lost Sheep. You out there?"
  8. I did the '05 movie car Pre Cooter with O1 and no General Lee or flag and the '05 Post Cooter with 01 General Lee Confederate Flag. I did the '79-'85 series cars too in 3D fan art. GA with crossed flags in the back and CA without them and the Happy Birthday General Lee Black car. I even did the Repo Men Lee 1 the Blue Green #71 car.
  9. Captain Smith:"And how many aboard Mr. Murdock?" First Officer Murdock:"2,200 souls onboard sir." Captain Smith:"Well, I believe you may get your headlines Mr. Ismay." (Change VHS tapes)
  10. Get ready for some serious car art skills! I can draw the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard in 3D! I show the entire car from all angles - left, right, top, front, and back. My secret technique? Starting with the iconic flag rectangle on the roof and building the rest of the car from there. Who else loves the General Lee? Share your favorite Dukes of Hazzard memories! #DukesOfHazzard #GeneralLee #CarArt #3Ddrawing
  11. I just schooled someone in the comments section of a Dukes scene on TV Stunter's YouTube channel. The man said "I love the stick at 0:59." I told him in a reply to his comment. "It's actually the soundtrack from the Mustang in the movie Bullitt dubbed in. All the General Lees were automatics. ๐Ÿ˜ฒ"
  12. Any fans here?
  13. Meadowmufn... I drew it lots of times both with and without the crossed flags behind the back windshield. I do it as a 3D image. I start out with the rectangle of the flag on the roof, and then I fill in the rest of the car. In my drawings, the front, back, both doors, the roof, everything is visible the whole complete car.
  14. I think I saw Boss Hogg's Bank redressed in Treasure of Soggy Marsh. It shows up just a little after Coy and Vance run Sheriff Little into the fence of Chickasaw Impound Yard. The Impound looks like Murkin's Car Lot from Share and Share Alike.
  15. Hey everyone. Big surprise coming soon! ๐Ÿ˜€
  16. In The Dukes of Hazzard episodes involving Chickasaw County, for the town of Chickasaw, was that the Burbank California Hazzard Square with redressed buildings?
  17. TV Trivia Time! ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ“บ I just discovered that Brett Halsey, who played the role of Elwin Kettle in the 1954 film "Ma and Pa Kettle at Home", also had a few memorable appearances as a bad guy in The Dukes of Hazzard! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ - Season 2's "The Rustlers" - He played Mr. Dunlap, a horse thief - Season 5's "Enos in Trouble" - He played Carter, one of the gem smugglers who hid gems in Enos's flashlight - Season 7's "Dukes in Hollywood" - He played Jason Dillard, a movie producer with a shady side Who knew Ma and Pa Kettle's son had such a wild side? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Has anyone else spotted Brett Halsey in these episodes? Share your favorite Dukes of Hazzard memories! ๐Ÿ’ฌ
  18. Wow. Someone told me a fib then. ๐Ÿ˜‚
  19. Just finished my The Dukes of Hazzard video games marathon. PlayStation 1 Racing For Home, PlayStation 1 Daisy Dukes It Out, and Game Boy Color Racing For Home.
  20. Hey fellow Gilligan's Island fans! Just a heads up (pun intended): most modern Skipper hats are getting it wrong! Instead of the classic Twisted Knotted Intertwined Mouse Braid hat band, many are using the incorrect Straight Gorget Braid. It's like they're sailing in the wrong direction! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Only a few modern hats are staying true to the original design. Anyone else tired of seeing these nautical fashion faux pas? Let's keep the spirit of the Skipper alive and demand accuracy in our Gilligan's Island-inspired gear! โš“๏ธ #GilligansIsland #SkipperHat #AuthenticityMatters Straight Gorget Braid is machine made and more readily available, easy to mass produce. Just slap it on the hats and done. Twisted Knotted Intertwined Mouse Braid is handmade. Unfortunately it's about profit not screen accuracy nowadays. Almost all are made with the Benford Yacht Hat Straight Untwisted Unknotted Gorget Braid nowadays. Not the Twisted Knotted Intertwined Mouse Braid of Lancaster.
  21. I'm not sure. But I heard it's a lot. ๐Ÿ˜ฒ
  22. Did you know that if anybody has a male Calico Cat they can be rich? Because male Calico cats are rare.
