The Dukes of Hazzard (1979)

4 trivia entries for show generally

★★★★☆

Starring: John Schneider, Ben Jones, Catherine Bach, Denver Pyle, Sorrell Booke

Trivia: Boss Hogg had a twin brother (Sorrell Booke in a dual role), who appeared in only one episode. He was the literal opposite of Jefferson Davis Hogg - he was law-abiding, wore black, and was called Abraham Lincoln Hogg.

Trivia: In the opening, you see Luke sliding across the hood of the General Lee. In actuality, he was supposed to jump, but lost his footing, and slid. He hit the antennae, broke it, and got a bad scratch on his forearm.

Movie Nut

Trivia: Denver Pyle and Sorrell Brooke are the only actors to have appeared in all 146 episodes of the show.

Trivia: Why do the Dukes (and Daisy) always climb through the windows to get into the General Lee? The reason is they can't open the doors - as it was a race car, the doors are welded shut.

Visible crew/equipment: When the General Lee makes a great jump (in fact the jump is used in the opening credits of the show starting in season 2), you can see a camera hooked to the bottom of the car on the passenger's side.
