January 26, 201313 yr 34 years ago THE BEST TV SHOW made it's first appearance on TV with "One Armed Bandits".Though I was yet to be born on the date that it aired, I do remember watching it when I was a kid...though was very young. I got back into it in 1997 when it was on TNN (It came on TNN in 1996...) and been hooked ever since '97. Even recall the first episode I watched on TNN...was the second part of "Million Dollar Sheriff". Leave it to me to catch on the last half and not the first...ah well, was good enough to get me hooked on any account. Fifteen years later and I still LOVE the show.Life would sure be different without the Dukes...and boring too. Without the Dukes who knows where my writing would be at (not that I have gotten any writing done in the past MONTHS, but at least I have a show to write about whenever my muse comes alive...if ever!). And without the Dukes...would probably still consider NASCAR the most senseless sport ever. Before the Dukes I had thought of NASCAR or any kind of racing as senseless -after all all they do is chase each other in circles. No one gets anywhere despite the many miles it takes to get there. Might as well as watch the dog chase it's tail...less expensive and in most cases, no one gets hurt.Then the Dukes came around with The General Lee, they raced, and talked about Richard Petty and had Cale Yarboro on the show. Changed everything - now I can't get enough of NASCAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Anyway - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BEST TV SHOW EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! THE DUKES OF HAZZARD!!!!!!!!!!!
