Skipper Duke

Christine Fun Fact: Alexandra Paul(Leigh Cabot) played a trick on the Christine set on the director John Carpenter. She let her twin sister do a scene instead of her. They didn't know it wasn't her until she talked. Carpenter said "There's something wrong with Alexandra!" The bulldozer scene with Dennis at one point her sister was in the scene not her. The only way to tell and her twin sister apart is by voice. John didn't know until she spoke that it wasn't Paul. They look like each other. When she spoke, he said "There's something wrong with Alexandra!" John Carpenter got Alexandra Paul aside later and told her "You little prankster!"

Arnie Cunningham:“Come on Christine” baby please. It’s alright. Everything’s still the same." *starts her up*I wonder why plays* Arnie *smirks* "Ooookay."

Will Darnell:"I don't allow no smokin' in here either." Arnie Cunningham:"Well I don’t smoke." Will Darnell:"Don't interrupt me punk! Don't interrupt me, an' don't get smart!" Dennis Guilder:"Umm sir." Will Darnell:"Whaaat." Dennis Guilder:"Those men over there are smoking. You better tell ‘em to stop." Will Darnell:"Are you tryin' to help your buddy right out of here Chuck? Dennis Guilder:"No!" Will Darnell:"Then shut your pie hole!"(Turns to Arnie)"I know a creep when I see one. And I think I'm lookin' at one right now."

Will Darnell:"Kiddo, if you sold him that piece of sh**, you oughta be f***in' ashamed of yourself!" Dennis Guilder:"I didn't sell it to him. I tried to talk him out of it." Will Darnell:"You should've tried harder! I knew a guy who had a car like that once. F***in' bastard killed himself in it. Son of bit** was so mean, if poured boilin' water down his throat, he would've pissed ice cubes!"

Will Darnell:"Look how cockeyed he works, he's got f***in' brand new windshield wipers for a busted windshield." Pepper Boyd:"Well, the boy does have good hands." Will Darnell:"Good hands. Bad taste in cars. You know somethin' Pepper? You can't polish a turd!"

(Season 5 The Hazzardgate Tape) Boss:"They're gonna shoot me, you hear, you hear? I'm gonna get killed!" Vance:"Nobody's gonna get killed Boss." Boss:"Oh yeah? That's easy for you to say, skinny boy like you, you ain't such a big target as I am!"

Have you noticed in the opening of Trouble at Cooter's, Russ Mitchell in his brown van hauling the fur coats, hits Cooter on purpose? He smiles before backing up into Cooter's truck.

Christine fans... 2 reasons the movie used a 2 door car as Christine. I bet you don't know why? A: There was no real life 4 door Fury in that year. And B: They thought a 2 door would look cooler. Christine fans... It was also a special custom ordered paint job by the original owner Roland D. LeBay when he bought it. It did not come in that Autumn red and white. They only came in that Buckskin Beige color like the assembly line movie scene.

Hey y'all. Does any of y'all know what footage the war maneuvers in this episode come from? Is it from a movie or a another TV show? All I know is, it's obviously stock footage from something else that this The Dukes of Hazzard episode used.

WIDOW Parlo mentioned by Waylon in Strange Visitor to Hazzard "In Hazzard lots of strange things have happened. From Cy Ertso's two headed calf, to Widow Parlo's second marriage. And lately, folks are seein' weird things in the sky. Even then that ain't drinkin' moonshine."

Christine Book and Movie fans... Just in case some of y'all don't have Facebook... Here's that link again from Leigh's page. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/oct/19/christine-review-stephen-king-john-carpenter?fbclid=IwAR3bZqVL-lojWG7qTnQbw4EjnYifaCQJXWGhaXIBF0AD9q6aQNiOp-xmlRI

I think they done role reversal in the movie. In the book, Roland's wife was Veronica and daughter was Rita. In the movie, Rita is the wife. So my guess is the 5 year old daughter got changed to Veronica.

Christine Trivia: Kevin Bacon was offered the role of Arnie Cunningham. He turned it down to do Foot Loose.

George LeBay:"My a** hole brother bought her back in September of '57. That's when you got yer new model year in September. Brand new she was. Had the smell of a brand new car. That's just about the finest smell in the world. Except maybe for p****."

Regina Cunningham:"You're his best friend. Now what's going on?" Dennis Guilder:"I don't know. I mean, I hardly ever see him anymore." Regina Cunningham:"Neither do we. Ever since he bought that car, he's been obsessed with it! And you know what else? When we signed the registration papers at City Hall, they told us that the man who owned that car last, died in it of carbon monoxide poisoning." Dennis Guilder:"Jesus! Does Arnie know about that?" Regina Cunningham:"Arnie doesn't know anything about anything anymore!"

Regina Cunningham:"Did you have plans with Dennis? Arnold Cunningham you're gonna find yourself with no friends at all, if you keep treating people this way!" Arnie Cunningham:"Get off my back!"

Arnie Cunningham:"Don't you blame your choking on Christine!" Leigh Cabot:"It happened Arnie! When I choked something happened. The radio came on, everything got really bright!"

(Season 2 Southern Comfurts) Boss:"You see Rosco, it ain't the money I care about! It's that vehicle. If I can confiscate the tires offa that orange car, how much trouble can those Duke Boys cause me ridin' around on their rims an' bumpers! Even you could catch 'em!"

Someone in a Christine Facebook group forum page said "Don't say anything negative about the book or the movie in this group. Someone will have a meltdown!" Lol.

(Season 5 The New Dukes) Vance:"As long as we stay outta range of that flame thrower, we'll be ok." Coy:"You got it. I like my barbecue in the backyard, not the front seat."

Balladeer:"Long about this time, ol' Boss an' Rosco were arriving back in town at the Courthouse." Rosco:"Can you believe the nerve of them little fat buddy, telling you to shut up and all that stuff?" Boss:"Rosco I want you to go back and spy on those rogues, and when the coast is clear, sabotage their mangy cars! Ha ha ha! They'll be sorry they crossed me! Them and that sad sorry Duke will all be behind bars 'til the cows come home!" Rosco:"Oooh goodie! Don't you worry about a thing Boss. I'll cuff 'em an' stuff 'em! Khee khee khee I love it I love it, police work's my life!" Boss:"Get on it you lamebrain knuckleheaded dodo!" Rosco:"Oooh that's not nice!" Boss:"Oooh will you just go already!" Rosco:"I'm gone! Khee khee khee!" Boss(to self after Rosco leaves.)"So are Bill, Ernie an' that dang Duke Boy!" Rosco shows back up. Ernie:"Bill, Garrett, don't look now but here comes that brainless Sheriff again."
