The Dukes of Hazzard: Quick Fun Facts
What started in 1979 as a short TV filler ran six years, winning fans with small-town mischief, wild car jumps, and the beloved General Lee. Catherine Bach’s “Daisy Dukes” included pantyhose for TV rules, Boss Hogg’s Sorrell Booke was a scholarly polyglot in padding, and the car’s “Dixie” horn came from a lucky find. John Schneider lied about his age to play Bo Duke, over 300 Chargers were wrecked, and even bloopers became part of the charm. Decades later, the show still delivers pure fun.
