Jamanda Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 They just showed this episode again and we quite enjoyed it...well...except for the stunts. They obviously were cutting back by this time and started using miniatures. And it doesn't have Enos in it, but you just have to assume he was in school or something at the time (Jam: Oh Amanda will you get over it!)It does give some background though and we liked that. If Bo was right out of high school, and Luke out of the Marines, that would make Luke about 4 years older than Bo. We assume Daisy's somewhere between them agewise.You also have to assume that this took place after Rosco lost his pension and "went corrupt" and also after Bo and Luke got caught running shine and were put on probation. We're assuming they got caught right after Luke got back from the Marines as someone on probation probably wouldn't be allowed in...would they? So the boys might've gotten the General fairly soon after they got caught (they probably wouldn't have been caught if they had the General now would they?)A very insightful episode. Pity the stunts were lame...sigh...pity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dukes Fan Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 I saw this episode on Barvo a couple of weeks ago, it was exciting and well, cool, seeing how the dukes ended up getting the General lee through a bank robbery and the black charger being in the impound yard before getting taken to a used car dealer. I am not too sure what DVD boxset this will be on, but whatever it's on, i will be glad to own it when it's released Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traintownofcowee Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 From what I heard, the new movie coming out soon, has a WAY WAY WAY different story of how Bo & Luke got General Lee. But that is one of my favorite episodes. What quite anoys me is that in seasons 6 & 7 the miniatures were pathetic. The jumps made by most the miniatures were clearly impossible. What REALLY looks wierd is when they hit the ramp. (Yall should know what I mean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 This is one of my favorite episodes. It's hard to decide which prequel is best, this or "Go West Young Dukes". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julieduke Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 This is one of my favorite episodes. It's hard to decide which prequel is best, this or "Go West Young Dukes".Well Actually the first movie is based almost exactly like Farewell, Hazzard the line about when somebody decided to give up racing is in the episode as well. And the The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning is based on Happy Birthday, General Lee and there is a little bit a trivia for all of you Supernatural fans did you know there is car just like Dean's car that the bad guys drive in that one.

RogerDuke Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 The lady that played the female robber in that episode is Janie Fricke (probably spelled it wrong). She was a pretty well know country singer at that time. Since she played a "bad girl" I guess they didn't let her sing at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauregard Special Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning is based on Happy Birthday, General Lee Like Red Line is based off of Cannonball Run. This one actually makes my top 3 favorite episodes, not sure about #1 thanks to the model-stunts, but it makes up for it by being an origin episode and answering a lot of questions, like why is the General orange, or the hidden meaning of the 01. Makes me wonder, though: why didn't they use the crossing flags above the trunk for this episode, unless they only had it painted on for a short time...
