That's the thing Roger, sometimes we need views from others to see things different. Now, I was not crazy for "visitor in Hazzard " either, especially when I don't believe in aliens to began with. But the idea of the show is , the dukes stick together to help anyone or anything that is in trouble, I know sounds korny, but that's how I viewed that show. It was the dukes, the chemistry of it all and so on, but I still will never like season 5 when Coy and Vance took over, never. So I can see your point about the reunions, only difference is, they still had that bond, and the loss of Boss and Jesse in those 2 movies, was felt stronger than ever before, that's one of the reason I loved the 2 reunions so much.
