I remember as a 7 year old or younger that I lived to watch the Dukes Of Hazzard on Friday nights,& it would devastate me whenever I would either get punished from the TV that night or fall asleep before it came on.I was in love with Daisy Duke and always got teased about it too(LOL);I even had a poster of her on my bedroom wall at the time,not that most boys my age didn't.Watching the reruns on TNN several years after CBS canceled it,I realized that the first 2 seasons were much better and less kid friendly than the seasons that followed,& I'm actually one of the few people in this world who liked Coy & Vance,even if they were carbon copies of Bo & Luke in every which way.What people other than die hard Dukes Of Hazzard fans don't realize is that the respective episodes in which both characters Jude Emery & Mason Dixon appeared were more or less pilots for what were supposed to be spin off shows of the Dukes.I personally thought they might have worked out much better than Enos did on his own,even though that wasn't a bad show.

I have always loved the Dukes of Hazzard. The Dukes of Hazzard is the a great T.V. series. It is a good country based t.v. show. Its about a couple of country boys, Bo and Luke Duke and their Uncle Jesse Duke, Cousin Daisy Duke, and friends fighting Boss Hogg and his crooked law with sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane a his deputies Enos and Cletus. Rosco has a basset hound named Flash. The name Flash doesn't go with the dog at all. Flash is Rosco's Police dog. Flash is always really sleepy looking and very slow. Bo and Luke drive a Orange 1969 Dodge Charger. The car is called the General Lee. The General Lee is bright orange with a confederate flag on the top with General Lee on both sides of the flag. It has a big 01 on the doors. Boss Hog always frames the Duke boy for his schemes to make more money. Then the cops start chasing them and the have to get uncle Jesse, Daisy and some other friends sometimes to help them figure out how to get out of their mess.

Every Friday night my Dad, sometimes my uncle who lived with us then and my younger sisters tuned in to watch the Dukes. My Mom, a nurse usually worked Friday evenings and missed this show. One word sums up this show and that word is "fun." I loved the action, plots and characters. The writing was excellent and any quality television show begins with excellent writing.The casting was superb and the actors were excellent. I loved Daisy in her short shorts and enjoyed those lovely legs. The Duke boys were free spirits who lived life to the fullest. Who wouldn't get a kick from driving the general lee and performing all those stunts? I would love to tear around the countryside like they did. How could anyone not love wise old Uncle Jesse? I remember Denver Pyle from other TV shows and he is one example of a familiar face we had all seen before. Sorrell Brooks as Boss Hogg was another example. Also, many of the guest stars were actors we knew from other work.Boss Hogg and Sheriff Rosco were perfect as the bad guys and brought the show to the next level. Enis was interesting because he was a nice guy working for mean bosses. Everyone could understand his attraction to Daisy but the poor guy was not too bright.Finally, Waylon Jennings added a wonderful touch to the song with his catchy theme song and commentaries as the show went out to commercial breaks. All in all this was a superb and memorable show.

The show was written mostly for 12 year-old boys....which I was when it premiered.Most 12 year-old boys envied Bo and Luke, were in love with Daisy, wish they had an Uncle Jesse, loved to hate Boss Hogg, and wanted to drive the General Lee and/or jump it over the creeks.The show had a clear-cut vision of good and bad, the good guys won in the end, and everything was resolved in a neat and tidy fashion in an action-packed hour. What's there not to like?Any time capsule of 1970s television would be incomplete without this wonderful, fun show that belongs in any DVD collection, especially in households with young males.
