These two couldn’t be replaced, which was proven. They didn’t quit because of egos; they did it on principle which was beneficial to ALL THE CAST - including creative control and royalty equity. The rest of the cast benefited from their stance. Thankfully, those two had the balls to fight for fair treatment, because the rest of them didn’t...

LoL, John and Tom are so humble and modest here. They know in their hearts that the ratings went down because they left the show. But I always respected the fact they stood their ground and fought for what was right and what they believed should be theirs. They underestimated these good old boys and thought they were young and dumb and would eat their shit sandwiches like good boys. Sometimes it's easier to just try and be fair to someone. The real Dukes won!

When John and Tom left the show - that's when I quit watching. I gave the new guys like maybe 3 episodes to show me they could carry the show (to be fair to them) but it just wasn't working for me. I never ever returned to watching it and had no clue Tom and John had returned eventually. So I missed out on the rest of what Dukes of Hazzard had to offer. I gotta find out of its streaming anywhere and catch up.

Exactly right. As a kid I remember all of this. The ratings did go down because Tom and John left. I just couldn’t get into watching “Coy” and “vance”. Each Friday after they left I became less and less interested in the show. To the point I stopped watching. Then when they did return I was happy but by then I had gotten so used to not watching it because of Coy and Vance that the show just wasn’t the same anymore and I was used to doing other things with my life. When John and Tom left it was the beginning of a slow death for Dukes. Just my opinion.

These guys stood up for the whole show when they did what they did.

With this pandemic, I went back over the months and watched all of the seasons. The Coy and Vance episodes are not as bad as I remembered them as a kid. Sure, they are not Bo and Luke, but Christopher and Byron were really put in an impossible situation. They did their best to at least keep the show going. Honestly, I might even prefer the Coy and Vance episodes to Season 7, with the miniature models being used. Most of Season 7's episodes were almost unwatchable.
@SupermanKalL2 жыл бұрын
It started with season 6 when they started using miniature toy cars and model playsets for the car jumping stunts to save money. It was terrible with no more real car stunts. The show's ratings had improved upon Tom and John coming back from their walkout for merchandise royalties, but it was never the same again, and folks even went on to watch other shows on other networks during that time. Both Bryon Cherry and Christopher Mayer were put in an impossible situation being cast to replace Tom and John as generic clones of Luke and Bo Duke with their Coy and Vance Duke characters. It was both the network CBS execs and studio Warner Brothers execs who thought that the car the General Lee was the main star of the show (it received the most fan mail) and it did not matter who was driving the car, but they were wrong.

I'm 51 and loved the Dukes of Hazzard growing up. I hate it when they ask Tom Wopat a question and John Schneider pops in with an answer and they just continue asking John the questions. Whenever John first answers, Tom first glances to him and just smiles but when it keeps going on....Tom just looks at the reporter with a mean look...as in why am I here, why doesn't John just give me the time for me to answer the reporter. I think that's what has hurt their relationship, as in their BBQ video, Tom isn't there and I don't think it's a matter of him not being able to get off of Broadway acting or singing.
