Actually... Did you know Luke's Love Story was the first filmed in CA and Swamp Molly 2nd? But they aired Luke's Love Story 2nd and Swamp Molly 1st. Repo Men and Mary Kaye's Baby were actually Repo Men 3rd Mary Kaye's Baby 4th. But they aired Repo Men 4th and Mary Kaye's Baby 3rd.

I just read the Titanic movie director James Cameron's interview about this sub disaster. You can read it here.

(Season 1 High Octane)
Cooter:"Uncle Jesse!" Uncle Jesse is looking trying to find the voice who's calling him. Cooter is doing the calling, from under the General Lee. He's fixing the shorted out tail light wire to make Rosco happy. Cooter:"Uncle Jesse!" Uncle Jesse is perplexed and still can't find the source of the voice just yet . Cooter:"Uncle Jesse hey!!!"(Grabs Uncle Jesse's leg.) Uncle Jesse:"Dang blasted it Cooter! Quit callin' me Uncle Jesse! I got enough people callin' me Uncle Jesse!" Cooter:"Yes sir Uncle- Eh Mr. Duke!" Cooter has crawled out from under the General Lee. He sits on the trunk. Uncle Jesse:"What're you doin' under there, anyways?" Cooter:"Oh the tail light wire shorted out. You know how old Rosco is." Uncle Jesse:"Do you need some help?" Cooter:"Naw sir. I already got it. Besides, you'd get all greasy. With me, it don't matter no more, Mr. Duke."

take this job and shove IT

Every news story seems to come with a conspiracy theory but that's not the same thing as making fun of the people who died though. Speaking of Princess Diana, I think I just watched an ep with a portrait of her in front of the Hazzard Post Office. If memory serves me right, James Best painted it.

That's why you are the Skipper...always full of important  information. 

Yeah he was only 19.

Yeah! Very sad.

Actually... Did you know Luke's Love Story was the first filmed in CA and Swamp Molly 2nd? But they aired Luke's Love Story 2nd and Swamp Molly 1st. Repo Men and Mary Kaye's Baby were actually Repo Men 3rd Mary Kaye's Baby 4th. But they aired Repo Men 4th and Mary Kaye's Baby 3rd.

So in other words they didn't realize what was about to happen and they didn't know it when it DID happen! A pretty merciful way to go!

From bbc.com/news:
What happens in an implosion?
When a submarine hull collapses, it moves inward at about 1,500mph (2,414km/h) - that's 2,200ft (671m) per second, says Dave Corley, a former US nuclear submarine officer.
The time required for complete collapse is about one millisecond, or one thousandth of a second.
A human brain responds instinctually to a stimulus at about 25 milliseconds, Mr Corley says. Human rational response - from sensing to acting - is believed to be at best 150 milliseconds.
The air inside a sub has a fairly high concentration of hydrocarbon vapours.
When the hull collapses, the air auto-ignites and an explosion follows the initial rapid implosion, Mr Corley says.
Human bodies incinerate and are turned to ash and dust instantly.

They were trying to dive 3,810m (12,500ft) beneath the ocean in a submersible that the owners didn't bother get certified (many say it would've failed) because there was a queue of people willing to spend $250,000 each to do so. Carbon fiber and titanium are strong materials, but the pressure at that depth is enormous. It's estimated that the sub imploded at a depth of 3,500 metres (11,483ft) - that's still over two miles straight down!

LOL! We ought to start ourselves an Outhouse Club! Ha! Ha! Ha!   
 
* This IS the internet.......they've probably already got one!   

yes and some people are going to be made rich by this terrible thing!

Not even Cooter can fix it now. Condolences to the families....especially the one that lost 2 family members. One was just getting started in life. 

The sub imploded!  I STILL don't know how or why!

It was Swamp Molly where it blew up? Thanks Skipper. I thought it was a Georgia ep. That's twice in one week I've done that. I thought Cooter went through the door with the motorcycle on a Georgia ep but it was Luke's Love Story.. Getting forgetful. 

I heard the people in the minisub are dead.

Cousin Roger... Yep most likely stock recycled scene from Swamp Molly.

I like the yellow one from the Georgia episodes. It has the most grease on it. I also like the ones with Georgia themes, Falcons, Braves and Special Olympics.

I knew there we're lots of hats used. Thanks for putting them all together.
I don't remember the Dominos one tbh but I gotta say, I like the yellow one from 5, 6, 7 the most. Gives it some colour while still dirty.

I agree about the yellow one as well as the season 1/2 yellow hat- adds that splash of color.  Thes season 1/2 was also the most iconic as this was the image you saw if Cooter in the title sequence that lasted the entire series.
Ben Jones must agree- the hat you see him in most often now is his yellow 'Cooter's Place' hat!

Every Duke fan knows about Bo blowing up the outhouse and destroying all Luke's car magazines but here is a scene I was just reminded of, when watching The Return of the Mean Green Machine from season 5. 
Miz Tisdale was delivering the mail in her dirt bike/sidecar when she came across Enos, who was stranded because mean green had pushed his car in the ditch. Enos hopped in the side car and they didn't get far before Boss and Rosco flagged them down and took the motorcycle. They needed it because Rosco destroyed his sheriff's car with a bazooka.
Rosco drove the motorcycle and Boss was in the sidecar firing the bazooka at mean green but had a terrible aim and hit an outhouse. They went back 4 years and used the same footage from Georgia!
