James Made the show! There's no way some writer could've come up with such a perfect character.

I took my sons to a car show here in Louisville, KY in 2004 and James Best, Ben Jones, and Sonny Shroyer were there. My son's favorite at the time was Enos so I was very excited to meet him with them. When we got to the front of the line Sonny's security stopped us because we hadn't bought his merchandise and Sonny wouldn't even look our way. James Best saw what happened and stood up and came over to us in full character. He said I'll sign anything you want and if people don't like that I'll cuff 'em and stuff 'em. So glad I got that on video, Mr. Best was a total class act!

James Best was really great. He never lost his touch. Sometimes I think that if he would have been a real sheriff that the bad guys would be in big trouble

Classic Show 1 of a kind

[@liferoad]

His last words on this part faded..."classic, classic, classic". I think he misses Sorrell as those 2 were best friends in The dukes as they were in life.

[@waynewilliams5802]

He was actually older than boss hogg...facts

[@MichaelHansenFUN]

OBSCURE FACT: Sorrell was the narriator of a multi-vinyl set of a documentary on the NASA SPACE CENTER called "To The Moon' in his 'regular' voice. RECORDS
