The Dukes of Hazzard plot

The Dukes of Hazzard is set in rural Georgia in Hazzard County, a fictional county. At the center is the Duke family, consisting of Jesse, his cousins Bo and Luke, and his niece Daisy. Bo and Luke have a car, the General Lee, a Dodge Charger 1969 RT, with which they regularly hold races and perform stunts. The Dukes are often at odds with the local authorities: Mayor, JD ("Boss") Hogg, and Sheriff Rosco. Boss Hogg is corrupt to the core, and for various reasons has provided for the Dukes' farm. His plans to obtain it, as well as others of his nefarious schemes, are often thwarted by the Dukes. Hogg often hires out-of-town criminals to help him portray the Dukes in a bad light, seizing every opportunity to have the Dukes arrested.

The Dukes of Hazzard season 1

Recently I was lucky enough to be in Nashville. In addition to all the top locations for music, there is also a Dukes of Hazzard museum. It is owned by Ben Jones - Cooter - who has collected all his memorabilia there over the years. Among the large pieces there is a General Lee that he used personally and a jeep that was actually used in the series. The visit to this museum was a trip down memory lane of a series I enjoyed as a child in the early 80s. The sometimes spectacular chases have always stayed with me.

Back in Belgium I felt like rewatching the series. And I haven't complained about that yet. It is a series with “good spirits”, tongue in cheek humor, fun characters. The entire countryside of the fictional county of Hazzard is nicely highlighted. For example, Bo and Luke Duke do not use firearms but bow and arrow when the need is greatest. The accents sound nice and southern. Boss Hogg drives around in a Cadillac like the one in the Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum, including bull horns. The whole thing can almost be taken with a grain of salt. And then there is the successful contribution of country legend Waylon Jennings. He composed the theme and performed it with his band. And he provides the voice over in a dry style that occasionally comments on the events.

This is 100% uncomplicated relaxation from a bygone era and preferably with your mind at zero. The General Lee races across the screen as usual. In total they smashed 325 for this series.
