Amazon.co.uk Review
Based around a battle between good old-fashioned family values and comically corrupt authority and always finding time for an action-packed car chase or two, The Dukes of Hazzard was perfect fun-filled family entertainment for its teatime viewing audience.

Light on plotting, each episode featured the ongoing feud between the Duke family--lovable rogues Bo and Luke, their sexy cousin Daisy and Uncle Jesse--and the weasly duo of Boss Hogg and Sheriff Rosco P Coltrane. But the plot was arbitrary really; what audiences really waited for were the scenes involving General Lee--a souped-up Dodge Charger--racing, jumping, skidding and even flying around in hot pursuit of the baddies. That and Daisy Duke's fetching collection of hot pants.

The Dukes' theme tune, performed by country music star Waylon Jennings, became another series hallmark. Jennings also provided the cheesy voice-over narration. Taking the same premise for most episodes, this wasn't groundbreaking television but comfortable viewing that gratified its viewers with harmless action, humour and an idyllic view of life in the southern US of A. --Laura Bushell

• Duke of Duke (47 mins approx.)

Customer Reviews

Now, That's What I Call Entertainment, Vol.2!
Better selection of episodes than the previous -early summer- collection, The Dukes of Hazzard are back with another DVD which include such classics as "Double Sting", "Duke Of Duke" and "Follow That Still". By the time those lines are written, there are strong indications of a U.S. release (region 1 encoding) of the intire 7 year-run catalogue, even those episodes in which the original stars Tom Wopat and John Schneider are replaced with look-alike performers! Warner Bros neither put a comment on that yet nor thinking of a European-region 2 version. In addition, Dukes of Hazzard funs must protest about the way this tv series is mistreated: DVD offers mono instead of stereo sound, no subtitles at all, practically no extra features - unless some poor lines and photos are considered 'extras'! Even these facts do not eliminate at all the great value of this production and the appetite for MORE releases in the near future! I strongly recommend this purchase for the joy, smile and hapiness that will bring to you Bo & Luke Duke, Uncle Jessie, "General Lee" and the best "bad-guys" comedian duo in the history of television, Boss Hogg And Sheriff Roscoe! YES, Now That's What I Call Entertainment, Vol.2! To be continued (I HOPE!!!)...
