The Dukes of Hazzard - Boss Hogg says No to drugs

[@SparkedTech]

"Marywonna" Lol I love the way boss says it. Rosco calling it "Merguana" is kinda funny too. This is by far my favorite episode.

[@robertmoore8821]

One of my favorites too.

[@runechuckie]

Seriously!! Now a days they just claim everything is fake and a witch hunt 😂 like bruh you aren't in a small town civil court you're in a federal courthouse... clearly you have committed some serious crimes and there is at least a serious enough amount of evidence against you, otherwise it would have been dropped with appeals (not naming names but someone who loves appeals/suing people & extending out court cases for years cough cough should get this but his base doesn't) Yes innocent until proven guilty but it ain't looking good boss, especially with the amount of evidence against him, treasonous piece of poo! Man I miss this show, it's a classic.

[@billcary30]

read somewhere where sorrel insisted on an episode like this so people could see boss drew a line somewhere. This episode and the one about dumping toxic materials were the two that cam eout of that.

[@stevenjohnson2273]

One thing he insisted on before he would do the show was no drugs.

[@CairnTerrier69]

Both he and James Best made clear requests concerning things on the show, especially after it was discovered that the show was drawing a huge audience of children. Booke insisted there were to be no drugs, and a line drawn in the storylines where the the two sides would help each other if need be. Best insisted that his Roscoe character be toned down into a funny semi-bad guy who would at times be shown to do the right thing...so that kids would never be afraid of police officers. He also requested that after every car crash, the other participants would slow down to see if the other was ok...or help/rescue if need be.

The way Boss and Rosco say marijuana is hilarious. Sounds like a wedding; "Marriage to Juana" and Marry Juana." But at last Boss has some principles and won't sell drugs.

[@tommyg9719]

This was back when weed was thought of as bad. If this aired today it would have to be heroin or something

[@johnw395]

Lets be honest: In the deep south itd be Meth.

[@markvanells7798]

Or Fentanyl

[@Dbl4Sllivn]

Weed IS bad. Not AS bad as your heroin but, it's still bad. Bad enough to be classified as a Schedule I controlled substance. Drugs with a high potential for abuse and addiction. They are unsafe to use even under medical supervision. The Controlled Substances Act classifies drugs based on their potential for abuse and addiction. Using marijuana affects your memory, learning, concentration, and attention, leading to difficulty with thinking and problem solving. Think driving. Like how you can't legally drive while on the influence of alcohol because the alcohol affects your brain and make you dangerous to operate an automobile, weed has a similar effect. I work with a dude who smokes weed and he CANNOT be taught how to PROPERLY do his job, which makes MY job/life harder than it needs to be. His mind is too influenced by the weed he smokes to pay proper attention and remember. I'm not against experimenting with marijuana for POTENTIAL medical benefits but, there isn't enough medical benefits that we know of ATM (which is why the Federal Government still has it classified as a schedule 1 controlled substance) and honestly, it should be turned into a prescription pill or something instead of handing out a card and bag fulls of the drug like they do now in, "legal" states.

[@eternalhalloween1]

Whatever Boss Hogg's faults were, he had a good side. And there were some things he would not do. (Make a dishonest quick buck, yes. But allow someone to be hurt, no.) In a Coy/Vance episode, his good side really came out when he dumped one of his plans, even though it meant losing a lot of money because he had to drop everything and help save a kidnapped Uncle Jesse.

[@suttybuddy7273]

Yep I’ve seen that episode.

[@eternalhalloween1]

@@suttybuddy7273 That was a good one.

[@torieowens8277]

This shows he has some scruples. He won't sell drugs. Like a guy in prison who's a thief, but he doesn't believe in killing.

Rest in peace boss Hogg

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

Boss Hogg was right about one thing, "It (marry-wanna) makes them shiftless, swimmy-headed and unpredictable". He nailed it perfectly!

[@gameoholic1994]

And yet he doesn’t have a problem with moonshine.

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

@@gameoholic1994 Moral equivalency does not win any debating points. Both pot and moonshine are wrong and damaging.

[@thomasshort1784]

@DuckDuckGo IsMuchBetter He sure did! I don't even like the SMELL of it!

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

@@thomasshort1784 Exactly. And even though the potheads, and their sober "Surrenderist apologists" who make excuses for them, don't want to admit it, the smell ALONE is, by definition, the illegal act of putting narcotics into the bodies of people who don't WANT narcotics in their bodies. This is going to be a prosecuted criminal offense AND civil damages legal issue before very long. The smell cannot be divorced from the act of forcing damaging narcotics into an unwilling victim who has EVERY right to be wherever they want to be, and to not expect that even a single molecule of narcotics is put into their bodies. They want to call it "medicine" (it isn't), but they want to pretend it is. But they don't want to acknowledge the fact that you can't put your "medicine" into someone else, whether they want it or not. It is illegal, even if the other person wants it, and even more so if they don't! If I gave my Lipitor to someone, I would be breaking the law! And even more so if I forced Lipitor down their unwilling throat! Potheads can't have it both ways! But at the heart of it, pot cannot, and inherently CANNOT pass the strict FDA approval process. No plant can. Plants aren't eligible for consideration as medicine for serious scientific reasons. That's why they try to skate under FDA law by calling it "medical" rather than "medicine". They are smarmy, slimy, dissembling, slippery, word WEASELS! Boss Hogg nailed them EXACTLY!

[@samclark379]

There's no double standard. "I won't allow drugs to be sold here." "I wonder if there's a reward for turning in the Duke boys on this charge." Makes sense to me.

Still not seeing the double standard. Someone is bringing pot into Hazzard. The FBI thinks it's the Dukes. Boss wants to bring them in. Simple. If he makes reward money in addition, more the better. Boss is okay making money, as long as no one gets hurt.

Drug could'nt to be in Boss Hogg business because it was in the contract with Warner Bros. He ask WB to enter in that role signing this agreement

[@thomasshort1784]

@Alex Guerrazzi Not having people killed was another stipulation, as I understand it.

[@CairnTerrier69]

Both Booke and Best had moral stipulations added into their contracts once it was apparent that the show was gaining a large audience of children. “Boss Hogg” stipulated no drugs, and no killings or murder. “Roscoe stipulated that his character quickly be toned down to be more comic than sinister so that children would not be afraid to approach a police officer should the need arise. He also stated that in any of the various car crashes that took place, the other party involved in the chase must at least slow down to see if the other was ok. Both stipulated that despite the Duke/Hogg rivalry, there must be mutual respect and aid given towards each other when needed. Rivalry for stories, no hatred.

[@billybrinsfield6485]

I wa glad to see an Episode like this when it first came out, I had wondered for a Long Time if there was any Limit to what Boss Hogg would go to make Money, and for That, He Earned my Respect for Drawing the Line when it came to Drugs!

[@thomasshort1784]

@Billy Brinsfield Speaking of respect, let me tell you another one about Boss Hogg, in the episode, "Lulu's Gone Away" (where Mrs. Hogg is kidnapped), when the kidnappers call him and tell him about the ransom, he PROMISES them if they so much as harm a hair on her head, there'd be NO place on Earth where they'd be safe from him (and I think he MEANT it)! THAT'S when he earned my respect (by not backing down and, growing up, it taught me something useful)!
