I purchased this video from Mr. Best in 1997 which he made the previous year. I converted this from the original VHS tape so you may want to zoom out the picture to sharpen the quality. I receive no compensation of any kind from this video. It is a treasure of mine and hope it brings joy to anyone who watches. If you'd like, please leave a comment as I enjoy reading each one.

You got that right never will be a great cast or show as Dukes of Hazard this show was a big part of my childhood always loved James Best’s laugh an him saying to Boss Hogg “My fat little buddy “ or he would do those noises like guchi guchi or something to that effect was the best part of my life watching the Dukes I’ll never forget that thank you for bringing this show to the tv 📺 so many years ago definitely don’t have shows like that anymore please bring shows like this back TV 📺

​@@raywhite4146 you're 💯% right about that! Especially if you've ever seen Moonrunners, the movie Dukes of Hazzard was based on. The original "Sheriff Roscoe Coltrane" was a very dull, nearly lifeless character. What James Best was able to turn that character into is beyond amazing!

He sadly had to prove that. He ad-libbed a lot of his lines and he never got credit. He approached them with a few safety demands for the stuntmen and of course, a raise. They refused. He left. They unsuccessfully tried to replace him so they gave on to his demands and begged for him to come back.

Mr. Best used to live near us and would come to the local fair with another gentlemen who had a General Lee replica and play the part of Roscoe. He had Flash (or at least a basset he called Flash) with him one year. He was always super nice and never turned away a fan and loved to talk with everyone. Much respect. R.I.P.

He used to come to Lenoir city Tennessee every year to go fishing in the lake . I was very fortunate to have met him and his wife and talk with them . He was a kind down to earth man . He treated everyone with respect regardless of what their status was . I did two caricatures for him one he kept the other one he signed and I still have it . I was able to see and talk with him in Mayberry ( Mount Airy ) North Carolina . I thanked him for for being kind to people that others would not have . I told him I would be going back to Lenoir city Tennessee in two weeks . He said I'll meet you there and he did . Thank you James

Seeing this comment kinda makes me chuckle. In the pilot and a few of the initial episodes, the whole show was a kind of dark satire on the South. Bo & Luke were a couple of ne'er do well parolees with their gang of misfits who were always trying to put one over on the corrupt powers that be in Hazzard County, namely the local political boss, Boss Hogg and his tamed Sheriff, Roscoe. Yes, you read that right, Bo & Luke were in a gang! A kind of hillbilly mafia to rival Boss Hogg's county syndicate. Also, Roscoe wasn't originally a bumbling, but lovable sheriff. Roscoe started out as the formerly competent county Sheriff who was embittered by the county voting away his pension (it's implied that Boss Hogg had a hand in that), and that's how Roscoe came under Boss Hogg's sway. It was a pretty dark origin story for all, but once the network execs realized they had a hit, the whole Dukes of Hazzard backstory got retconned to make it more appealing to a wider audience. Frankly, I think that was a good thing given the broad section of people who remember the show so fondly.

My dad grew up in in the same town as James Best. The town is Corydon Indiana. On a trip to Indiana from Colorado, my dad and uncle Floyd took me to James Best's parents house which was a block away from the cemetery. We talked to his mother and she gave me an autographed picture of James and Flash. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. She was so nice.

Thank you for sharing your treasures with us. Very nice to see this after all these years. I was born in 1970. Perfect aged boy growing up with the dukes and Roscoe and Boss Hogg. Every week.Had the lunchbox and toys.The older generation is gone now. James, Sorrell, and Denver. All good and very unique people.

One of the best shows ever. I bought every season of the dukes and still watch it. I Met John Schnieder at a car show and got a bunch of my Dukes of Hazzard collectables signed. James Best was an incredible actor. RIP Mr. Best.

Seeing Sorrel and James fishing together is something i have NEVER seen before, and i am a HUGE Dukes fan/collector, so seeing some home videos like that is really cool. Its so weird to hear Sorrel call James "Jim" instead of Roscoe. Many of us fans have heard the story of Sorrell doing his lines in Japanese, and that would be cool to witness. All in all, this was a pleasure to watch. Thanks for putting out there to share with fans.

@@doncook3964 wreckin those cop cars must have cost boss a ton of money. Thats why he was always involved in shady business deals with lots of cash. You would think boss would have just fired roscoe, but boss kept roscoe around cause he was "dirty ruthless." Boss said, "gimmie dirty rutless ANY day."

I watch the dukes of hazzard still to this day! I’m only 30 an I remember watching them when I was younger an it brings me such joy! I only wish the world seen it for a true down home show instead of what all the politicians made it out to be because of the flag on the good old general Lee! Forever my favorite show!
