I think in an interview, he said that he wanted to play it more realistic, but when it came to the original Rosco, he said "I have nothing but respect for the man."

However, you have a funny way of showing it by completely changing the character that James Best made legendary.

Not only that, but Boss and Rosco are one of the funniest duos I've ever seen. Their comedic timing is the best I've seen, and that's no exaggeration.

And another thing that is a weird Hollywoodism. They are too scared to make the bad guys the dumb guys. While it's true that the most menacing bad guys are the ones with enough wits to be a threat, in reality, you have to be inherently dumb to be evil, or succumb to evil temptations. The basic theme of the Dukes of Hazzard has always been that down-to-earth know-how will always outsmart someone driven by greed. From the first episode to the last, that has been the foundation of the show, and that's what makes the show great.

It was a funny duo in deed.I' don't like the new version of the characters (as i can figure from the photo) and i' believe the new actors can't recreate the funny atmosfere of the cult show.I' d like to see Danny De vito in the Boss Hog's part instead of Burt Raynolds.

Danny D would have been a much better choice for Hogg.

Check it out! It's Flash and a goofy Roscoe!

in an Interview Jay (the director) was askedwhy they hired Burt to play Boss since he isn't fat or short like the origanal. He said somthing like "in movies they always hire the short man who could be beat up to play the bad guy and as the audiance we don't really like to see some one who could be beat up

as the bad guy"

I disagree with his theory. Boss and Rosco where a comidy duo. They wern't the type of villans you wanted to see end up in prison somtimes you actully wanted to see them succed. They might of been crooked or greedy but they never had the intentions of hurting anyone

If Burt and MC can't make the audiance laugh like the originals then they are not Boss and Rosco

WTH?

That theory doesnt make any sense to me.

Man he makes it sound as if short people are helpless beings who get bullied all the time.
