Dukes of Hazzard Review
"Things are different in
Hazzard County..." Maybe so, but we loved to watch those Duke boys mess it up
with the Sheriff.
The Dukes of Hazzard is a piece of Americana. A
guilty pleasure for most of us. Pure fun for all ages.
For me and many
others the real star was the General Lee, a Dodge Charger 440. Actually, over
300 of them, as that's how many they went through in the course of the show.
The stunts were incredible and all done without CGI effects. John Schneider
became so enamored of the car, that he has restored over 20 of them.

The comedy was a feel good, down home humor that even those
who had never been to Georgia could appreciate. And then too, there were those
"Daisy Duke shorts" which would ultimately be displayed in the Smithsonian.
Really! |
Dukes of Hazzard DVD - First Season
The shows are
looking as good as can be expected for 20 years old and the sound is excellent.
There are 3 DVDs which are double sided. The Special features are nice but one
in particular should please fans. " The 20th Anniversary Hazzard County
Barbeque" is a reunion of many of the cast members. The affection is obvious.
Also, Catherine Bach and John Schneider offer commenatry for the pilot episode,
"One-Armed-Bandits."
One thing I noticed was the absence of Tom Wopat at
either the reunion or on the commentary. Pity.
