March 15, 200620 yr i know its posted around here, but search revealed around 600 odd responses, anybody remember what his cb name was?
March 15, 200620 yr Under the character desription we have on the site (under the section called Original Series) I put that Rosco had a CB handle in one episode. I can't remember the episode off hand (I think it's the Christmas one) but there's a scene where Jesse is calling for "Bear and Chief" on the CB and he's calling for Rosco and Boss. Of course, Boss had several other "handles" for Rosco include cowchip, lamebrain, peabrain, ect...
March 16, 200620 yr Author ta. i forgot all about that section. i can be such a goof sometimes. nice to see you around!
March 2, 201412 yr Wikipedia says Rosco's hand is Red Dog.Strictly speaking, that wasn't a CB handle. It was Rosco's "military code" to be used on the field telephones he'd bought at the army surplus in 'Swamp Molly'. Enos was Blue Fox.Also in Rosco's code, Luke was Tweedledum and Bo was Tweedledee.
March 2, 201412 yr Strictly speaking, that wasn't a CB handle. It was Rosco's "military code" to be used on the field telephones he'd bought at the army surplus in 'Swamp Molly'. Enos was Blue Fox.Technically, it would be a "codename", which is often interchangeable with "call sign" or "handle", but I agree that it's military in origin and not a "CB" handle and was only used once.As for "Bear and Chief" appearing in the Christmas episode, I think that was misheard and was really "bearded sheep", referring to Cooter and the boys running around in Santa outfits. If someone has the time and dvd, that could easily be checked out.
March 3, 201412 yr I put "military code" in quotes because the exchange between Rosco and Enos goes like this:Rosco: Blue Fox, this is Red Dog. I'm on target.Enos: Okay, sure. What now?Rosco: Dang it, Enos, will you please use the military code?Enos: Okay, Hound Dog.Rosco: It's not Hound Dog, it's Red Dog, you dipstick.Enos: Yes, sir.
March 3, 201412 yr I can't remember the episode, but remember one time Rosco ( or was it Boss?) Was known as big chief Forked Toungue?
March 5, 201412 yr Just watched Uncle Boss today and Rosco and Enos use the handles Top Dog and Young Pup.
