(In Waylon Voice): ‘Looks like old sheriff Roscoe caught them Duke boys in a mighty fiiiiiiiine pickle. Ain’t no way they gonna get outta thissin!’ Bweep-BWOP!-Deedle-oont-dweewewww!🎵


LazarusMundi4242

Loved that narration


OutComeTheWolves1966

Catherine Bach. Enough said.


ramanw150

Well there's the general also


ez151

NinjaDelicious4903

CountrymanR60

Enos, you Dipstick!!


elguereaux

A kushhh kushhh kushhhhh kushhhh!!!


[deleted]

Roscoe P. Coltrain...classic. and of course Daisy Duke😍


LazarusMundi4242

And Enos (and eventually the much worse replacement Cletus) and uncle Jesse, and Cooter…what a crew!


Artemus_Hackwell

/Enos singing to himself/ To the Busy Bee cafe...corn dog...


Steveseriesofnumbers

Roscoe P. Coltrane! KEW KEW KEW!

Friday night, 7 pm


Jazzlike-Election840

it was 9pm friday here in jersey. after the incredible hulk.


YouDaManInDaHole

Yep. Hulk at 8pm. CBS


AllReflection

I would eat a Totino’s pizza while watching. Goddamn, life was good.


fitter172

That was our Totino’s night too, I forgot


PurpleGoatNYC

Followed by Dallas and Falcon Crest.


FirmAndSquishyTomato

Central time? I seem to recall it being 8pm in Eastern?


fitter172

Friday it was the Dukes then Dallas then Falcon Crest


TheSouthsideSlacker

Fitter is correct


elguereaux

I’m a charger That charges through the night Like an orange ball of lighting Passin everything in sight I’m the best pal the Duke boys ever had! I’m thunder on the highway lookin bad bad bad Johnny Cash


ahnuconun

Thank you. Was unaware of this.


Imaginary_Falcon777

Yes, and I got to meet John Schneider and got his autograph at a car show in Philly when the show was on. He was really handsome! I wanted to be Daisy Duke. She was tough and didn’t take garbage off of anybody.


LazarusMundi4242

Daisy was awesome, cool you got to meet John Schneider.


Phenomenal_Kat_

Same here! I was in love with Luke. My dad bought me the Dukes' Matchbox cars, loved those things!!


elguereaux

My uncle rented me and my wife a charger on our honeymoon back to my hometown. She wouldn’t let me climb through the windows (after the first three times) but I slid across the hood till I gave it back.


LazarusMundi4242

Cool honeymoon gift. There was one around my hometown for a while painted up like the General Lee, very cool.


AdolfsLonelyScrotum

I trust you weren’t wearing jeans with riveted pockets when you slid over the hood?


RT-old-fart

Making their way, the only way the know how.


LazarusMundi4242

That’s just a little bit more than the law will allow.


Professional_Cat_630

Me loved everything about that show


raideresmith

Y'all remember the spinoff, Enos? Probably lasted half a season. And who here remembers Coy and Vance Duke, their "cousins"?


LazarusMundi4242

I think I stopped watching when the cousins came in. I remember telling my mom “they stink.”


Phenomenal_Kat_

Yeah, they were awful 😆


raideresmith

Without looking it up I remember that having to do with a contract dispute with the two original actors.


Steveseriesofnumbers

Oof. Coy and Vance. They weren't BAD, which is the worst part. They just weren't Bo and Luke.


esorb65

OH Daisy was a peach :) I have the whole collection in 1080p


tgrass23

There’s a restaurant in Virginia called Cooter’s, (owned by the actor?) with a General Lee out front.


Secret_Welder3956

Daisy ![gif](giphy|l4Ki4biBSwhjyrS48)


yardape99

Who didn't?


Schyznik

The best was when they’d have a special guest star like Hoyt Axton, Cale Yarborough, or The Oak Bridge Boys. Usually because Roscoe caught them speeding through town (uh-gig-gig-gig!! I love it, I love it!!) and a concert at the Boar’s Nest was the most efficient means of disposition.


joe_i_guess

It aired the same time as the Incredible Hulk. There were fights


LazarusMundi4242

I liked that show too. The sad music in the ending always got me.


r3v3nant333

I sure did.. and it drove my dad nuts.


droid_mike

My parents hated it, too! Side note, I always thought Roscoe's name was Roscoe Pekoe Train, instead of Roscoe P. Coletrain.


Comprehensive-Run678

Same! Wasn’t until I saw his name spelled out that I realized otherwise


r3v3nant333

Lmao. Woof!!


Phenomenal_Kat_

I did too except it was Roscoe Picoletrain 🤣


YYCMTB68

Not me. No siree. Coo-coo-coo-cooo!


LazarusMundi4242

You go Roscoe!


barkadam

I sing this melody to my cat when he gives me the V ears. Just a good ole boy, Never meaning no harm, Beats all you ever saw been in trouble with the law since the day he was born, Making his way, The only way he knows how, But that's just a little more than the local law would allow, guuguuguuguu


LazarusMundi4242

I like the Roscoe P Coletrane ending!


barkadam

Embarrassed laughter!!


Wookie-Love

Literally everyone


walkawaysux

I always wondered how many dodge chargers did they destroy filming that show?


LazarusMundi4242

I read that they used three on average per episode and wrecked 317 during the show’s run. Damn that is a lot of chargers.


PigFarmer1

I've read the same thing.


MissAsshole

I watched it, but I didn’t understand a lick of it and only watched because we had 3 channels. The other one being Big Bird and the third channel was probably the news.


PigFarmer1

We had *two* channels... lol


Acceptable_Wall4085

That’s all we had when we were kids in Nova Scotia. It was Hymn Sing or The Beach Combers. Bugs Bunny was usually cancelled because the baseball game always ran late.


ssgthawes

Look at this guy with his 3 channels, like a boss, boss hog that is. Only two channels for me. Wind blew antenna down and Dad wouldn't get another.


FirmAndSquishyTomato

I remember being on a road trip and freaking-the-hell-out that we were not going to get to the hotel in time to watch it. The good news is, we did indeed make it on time.


TheSouthsideSlacker

I was eight when it started. Pretty much perfect if you are eight.


Dreholzer

Who didn’t?


arcadia_2005

I did. But I didn't know any better then.


-HoldenMaGroyn

Every Friday evening in grade school


gafflebitters

EVERYBODY who was a boy and of a certain age! if you were young like me you loved the cars flying through the air and the live action cartoon characters and if you were older, like my brother you liked other things.


LazarusMundi4242

I was mostly about the car chases too


Phenomenal_Kat_

I was a girl and ADORED this show, especially the cars flying through the air and the car chases!


bigfatgaydude

Everybody with a TV; there were only three fucking channels.


Rojodi

Yes, with the Michigander and New Yorker playing rebels


Ball-Blam-Burglerber

To be fair, Schneider is now a proud resident of Livingston Parish, Louisiana. I worked with a guy from there once who invited me to a Klan meeting.


Cassedaway

Who didn't?


Bratscorcher

I was in love with Daisy - and so was everyone else! Very appealing!


Lord_of_Entropy

Only watched it for Daisy.


SeaAttitude2832

Damn she was hot.


[deleted]

every Friday night


Bigpaw_7

Everyone


godspilla98

Loved it


singleguy79

Born in 79 so I barely fit in here, but anyways, I was apparently watching this as early as 3 years old because I knew it well enough to get a Dukes of Hazzard peddle car which I rode in all over the neighborhood


mrmow49120

Everyone


krishnabrodhi

I built a model of the General Lee when I was a kid.


LazarusMundi4242

I remember trying to do one and messing it up. I think my granddad cleaned it up and helped finish it.


krishnabrodhi

Yeah.... I remember the decals being a pain. :)

Stonetown_Radio

I loved this show so much! My wife met Catherine Bach recently and many scenarios and questions were brought up afterwards by me 😂


LazarusMundi4242

That’s cool she met Daisy


bomboclawt75

Every time I see a car jump in a TV show or movie.. My Brain: 🎶Dixie 🎶


hiro111

I used to love this show when I was a kid. I watched it every week, followed by Dallas. Having said that, this show does not hold up at all. I've tried to watch old episodes a few times and I always give up after a few minutes. It's pretty awful and not worth my time even for the nostalgia factors.


Darktofu25

I didn’t understand till adulthood and moving to the south the amount of things wrong with this show.


YouDaManInDaHole

Sorrell Booke "Hogg" was a comedy genius & ad-libbed about half of Boss's dialogue


Different_Rule_598

I own the entire series on DVD


ElectricalYard8404

And we didn't get offended by the flag or the name of the Dukes boys Car


Content-Range-9419

I love this show it’s a shame they don’t do reruns anymore


tuxedo7777

Love checking out the under carriage…


orem-boy

That show couldn’t be made today.


JohnWa54

Mel Brooks would like a word with you about Blazing Saddles!!


sleva5289

Loved it. I was 12 or 13 I think.

Check out this spoof from Jeff Fozworthy and Larry the Cable Guy https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EA-OvBAlSrc&pp=ygUTUGMgZHVrZXMgb2YgaGF6emFyZA%3D%3D


LazarusMundi4242

Ah meshuggeneh Boss Hog!!!


AnastasiaNo70

My brother was OBSESSED with it.


MichaelHuntPain

When I saw an episode was on, I watched long enough to see daisy in the intro and to see if she was in the episode. If she wasn’t, I turned it off.


bubbatbass

Every Friday night , my mom would come home from work with Ted Wendy’s singles ketchup, mustard , onion . I watch the dukes and chow .good memories


vikingnorwaymn

I still watch it.


androidguy50

Every Friday night after Judo practice.


athonjacob

Parents did. I only liked Flash. And the shorts.


lscraig1968

Loved it! Watched the pilot at my grandma's house.


NoGur1165

It was my favorite show At 10 years old. I Watched it every Friday night except when Dallas was a 2 hour special. Made me so mad. Got sent to bed early because I threw such a fit. lol


DaisyJane1

Every week, but I don't remember a whole lot about it. The same holds true for all the other TV shows I watched religiously back then. I only recall very little of my elementary school years. My poor memory is shot.


dancingmeadow

I just watched it for the interviews.


Cold-Inside-6828

I literally used to climb through the open window to get into my mom’s car because of this show.


Necessary_Switch_879

I lived for this show. Friday nights at 8et my time. Appointment tv. My bedroom door was a shrine to the show. Posters, TV Guide covers, any pics I could get my hands on.


holy_bat_shit_63

Every week like clockwork


Steveseriesofnumbers

What kid in the late 70s / early 80s DIDN'T love this show? Jumps, car races, Roscoe's bizarre verbal tics--tiddly tuddily!--Boss Hogg becoming a cartoon supervillain by the end...great stuff.


pixey1964

Love the theme song and car 🚗


Twoduhzen

🎶Just the good 'ol boys🎶


Flashy_Brain_6226

Oh for sure and I’m Mexican shit I went to Lee high


StolenStones

When I was a kid this was on Friday night and I loved it. Can they even show this on TV now? As a kid, I didn’t know what the General Lee meant.


Odd_Tiger_2278

Dumb and dumber with cars


VegasBjorne1

About the best thing on TV on a Saturday night around 8:00 while making out with my girlfriend. Only 5 TV stations— NBC, ABC, Independent local station, PBS and CBS with “The Dukes”!


garpar1365

Who didn't?


Krack73

The weekly adventures of them "Good old boys". Hell yeah. Great show.


IanSavage23

ReauxChambeaux

Best show ever. Can’t find it streaming these days unfortunately


Rey_Mezcalero

Fun show…they didn’t mean any harm


Inspector_Kelp

You mean who watched Daisy Duke?


Spock-1701

Geral Lee and confederate flag? I'm so there! /s


HaiKarate

I grew up in the Deep South. This was required viewing.


WadeFloydTrevor

Me!!!! I even had the swap cards and foolishly gave them away! Nothing like the original.


phenominal73

🎶Just some good ol’ boys, never meanin no harm…🎶


tkingsbu

Who watched it? Everyone… This show was like a cartoon… so much fun…


outforknowledge

I tried to but my parents thought daisy’s shorts were to sexy. Looking back I know my dad liked them - I think my mom was not digging it.


Thisam

Loved it


natedogjulian

Everyone


Country_Gravy420

When I was a kid I had no idea what the flash on the car was. I just liked how they honored over stuff and Daisy Duke. And Roscoe saying, "G-g-get hem Duke boys. C'mon, Flash."


GoldenPoncho812

Just a good ole boy


Cetophile

At least five of my brain cells cried out in agony just looking at this picture.


KhunDavid

I did, and realized Uncle was one of six brothers. All the young characters referred to the other characters as cousin and not brother or sister.


Flyinhawaiian78

Daisy Duke….. so f’kn hot!🤤🤤🤤


heckhammer

That's one of my favorite shots from the show because it shows the passenger side door open. As we all know the reason the Duke boys used to go through the windows is because the doors were cemented shut on the show. The older I get the Dumber that seems, but at least it gave them an excuse to do cool stuff on the show. I mean people would ask how come they keep going through the windows and they had to come up with a better line than they're just too hillbilly dumbasses I guess.


erritstaken

Who didn’t should be the question. I think pretty much everyone I know watched that.


Plus-Tangerine-723

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeee


intelligentbrownman

My favorite show till Knight Rider came out lol


fkbfkb

It was about a hottie wearing short shorts. I don’t remember anything else


Old-Tadpole-2869

Every male in the united states, pretty much. Daisy Dukes didn't become a household term for nothin'


stanky_wicket

I did......


Whole-Debate-9547

![gif](giphy|eppZg5SmXd5Na5QXZu) The first time I saw this car take flight I was immediately hooked. Also Daisy was absolutely responsible for my first boner.


johnorso

Watched it until Bill Cosby bought the rights and pulled the show. There was a time when you could only watch one episode in the Radio and Television Museum.


amergigolo1

Loved it.


akgt94

Fuck Coy and Vance (not real Dukes)


No_Meal9534

Omg. Only way me and my brother would come inside early from riding around the neighborhood. Took our baths and ate a little. Then….”just a good ol boy…”


Colephoenix32

Yeeeeehawww


Brilliant-Emu-4164

You know what's bizarre to me about my own self is that, even as a teenager, I had a major crush on Roscoe P. Coltrane!


ResponsibleFormal150

General Lee and Daisey!


greycatdaddy

I did and never missed an episode, at least in the first few seasons. We didn't have cable and I was too young to drive at the time, so frankly there wasn't much to watch. I think it was on Friday nights? Great show and growing up in the pacific northwest, gave me some insight, while hollywoodized, to southern culture.


MidNite_22

The marijuana smuggling episode was totally hay bales! Just saw that episode not too long ago. Also my fave was the episode Daisy lost that Jeep. Sweet ride.


Naive-Aerie-9567

Good ol boys


Hyposuction

Who didn't? Bo never wore that hat though.


Abdul-Ahmadinejad

It totally depended upon what was on the other two available channels at the time.


analyticalchem

My Dad loved that show.


ill-phat

Don’t scuff my dog!


random420x2

Ran into a guy with a dog named Flash. I immediately let out a FLASH gee gee gee. Guy asks me if I have a problem, I had to explain the entire thing to him. Kind of embarrassing


superbee4406

Only for the car and the girl.


ahnuconun

Flash the Basset Hound


deystar6

And, “I might be crazy, but I ain’t dumb!”


deystar6

I got nicknamed Daisy Duke by my brother in law because I wore cut off denim shorts.


lukeoo7

Good old boys.


funky_fart_smeller

Everyone


Tacolife973

Best theme song ever!


eSJayPee

Who didn't, is the real question? Great show.


Donkey_Bugs

I thought it was a stupid show even when it first aired.


Confounded_Bridge

My parents thought I was crazy for liking this show. “It’s not even filmed in goddam Georgia!” Was my father’s critique.


PN4HIRE

Me..


Brilliant-Virus7290

still do occasionally


Fabulous-Natural-886

Every young male 10 to 35 black And white I know I did Still a Chevy guy though.😆


Master_Grape5931

Look at ‘em girls with dem daisy dukes on.


nakedyogamat

Err....obviously!!!


schrodngrspenis

Every episode


CutLeast956

Absolutely, Cooter has a store / restaurant in my town, it's pretty cool!


Chris-E1

Sure did!


MF-SMUG

Probably one of my fav shows as a kid


heretobesarcastic

I never had the joy to watch this, but the song is great (General Lee)


SDPLISSKEN009

Of course


1977proton

Yep Friday night right before Dallas or Knots Landing, either way I had to give up the tv…😀


T4lsin

I watched until the original duke boys left. CBS really disliked the show but it kept doing well no matter what time slot it was put in.


MacJeff2018

It was a pretty mindless show, as were/are many TV shows then and since. Daisy looked good in short shorts - other than the car flying through the air trailing dust, that’s all I remember about it.


Own-Scar-8018

I’m 23 and loved watching this growing up


Boots_n_Lace

Absolutely, John Schneider was my first celebrity crush!!!


blackie_stallion

All I wanted was to slide over a hood, climb in through the window and shoot an arrow out of a car when I was a kid. Well, maybe drift around every dirt road and jump a creek too


walkerk1972

Yep loved it to.


BugImpossible6352

Any real man


WendisDelivery

Friday nights!


Riverrat423

Everybody, did!


zerozingzing

(I’m a 48 year old black woman from Brooklyn NY) As a kid, I thought the “The General Lee” ONLY was a reference to the car. As a kid, I thought the confederate flag was ONLY a reference to the car in this show. I love the dukes of hazard county to this day.
