Dukes of Hazzard 7 seasons all good?
Gee I cant remember. Was this one of shows that really dropped in quality enough to be cautionous in future dvd sets down the line. As kid I thought I remember being upset by lead males being replaced, at least for awhile. Other then that how was quality for 7 season run?

i watched this show as a kid, mainly for the car chases. i remember liking the characters, but can't remember too many episodes that stood out. it was one of those "always-on" series, and now, it's all a big blur.

I'll get them all just to be a completist. I was heart-broken as a kid though when Coy and Vance replaced Bo and Luke... BUT I'll still buy that season nonetheless.

I wonder if the exec that suggested that idea ever lost their job over it.

They're different because in the fakes, it's the blonde one who wears blue & drives and the brunette one who wears yellow and rides shotgun.
and yeah, those are the only differences.
It's Vance.
I don't think it was even a full season... so if you 'skip it' -- you'll miss Bo & Luke episodes

season 5; eps. 87-105

Since I was too young to remember, what was the story behind Bo and Luke leaving? Both in the show and in real life.

I'll buy all 7 seasons including Coy and Vance. The writing was of the same quality during that season and the show was almost as good. It's not like they replaced the whole cast. Jessie, Daisy, Boss, Rosco, Enos & Cooter were all still there. Same ol' Dukes of Hazzard to me.

I'll be buying all seasons as well (assuming they all get released). Plus, the WB should release 'Enos' for good measure (see my sig to vote).
But the Coy and Vance season had the best intro of all 7 seasons...when they jump the General Lee over the family barn!

Wow I don't even remember it going for 7 seasons. Like another poster said, it's all a blur. No episode really stood out, just a lot of "Yeehaw" and car stunts, and "Geewd geewd geewd" and Boss Hog's bull horned car and Daisy Duke and a bassett hound.

Coy and Vance got the boot in the 5th season, due to an "illness in the family" and the original Duke boys returned late that season.

WB would get my vote to get Enos on DVD. Smackem-Jackem or something like that.

Re: Dukes of Hazzard 7 seasons all good?
Will Warner Bros ever release a box set with all the seasons?
You can get seasons 1-7 for $232 at Amazon but I assume they would make a box set with a discount price in the future maybe in a collectible General Lee packaging?

Re: Dukes of Hazzard 7 seasons all good?
That's WAY too expensive for these...I grabbed all seven seasons for much less than $100 total....Walmart used to sell seasons for like $10-15 each, and they've also popped up at clubs like Costco, Sam's, and BJ's around a $12 price point or so....these have also shown up previously at Big Lots for like $6 each or something....
I'd advise you ignore Amazon and look around for better deals....
