The Dukes of Hazzard was a beloved 1980s TV show about cousins Bo and Luke Duke, their bright orange Dodge Charger “General Lee,” and their adventures in Hazzard County. Known for fast cars, humor, and iconic characters like Daisy Duke—whose signature shorts became a pop culture staple—the series blended action with lighthearted fun. Behind the scenes, Boss Hogg’s actor Sorrell Booke avoided dark storylines, John Schneider faked his age and accent to land the role of Bo, and over 300 Dodge Chargers were used for stunts. With its catchy theme song by Waylon Jennings and enduring charm, the show remains a nostalgic favorite through reruns.
