Dude awesome video love the Toby Keith tribute as well I just wish one day this will all settle down and our young ones can have the same experience of the dukes that we had coming up but I have to say keep up the great work and one of these day I’m going to make the trip over the the lower peninsula of Michigan and we’ll have to meat up and hangout but until then keep up the great work and I will keep watching
R.I.P. to both Toby Keith a true country music and American legend and Alicia a sweet soul who had a good heart both are gone too soon but will never be forgotten.
Hey Chunky, just wanted to say that I'm enjoying your old GTA series with the Dukes. I always had the idea of a "General Grant" as a rival for the Duke Boys' General Lee. Thst said, I kinda feel like a Ford Mustang would fit better IMO. Having it be another charger feels too similar to me. That said, I'm really glad that you're making content that you enjoy. And congrats on getting not one, but TWO interviews with Mr. Schneider! Thanks again, and much love from Oregon.
Also, R.I.P. to Alicia & Toby. It's sad that a lot of folks who were instrumental to the series have gone and departed from this world. But from what I'm seeing, it sounds like the world didn't deserve their goodness. My condolences.
That’s very special and kind of you to air this on the year anniversary of the passing of John’s “smile” Alicia. May she Rest In Peace, continued prayers for John and his family. Thanks chunky for keeping the Dukes of hazard alive. I’m 50 now and remember watching the first episode like it was yesterday. I actually only live about 20 miles north of Covington Georgia. Man, times back then were so much better. Keep up the good work and stay rebel buddy!
Alicia was great to me, her and I had many great conversations in the past. I was very distraught when she had passed. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, maybe one day we'll run into each other in Covington
Good job Chunkey! You take me back to my childhood watching your show. The Dukes was my favorite show as a kid. I’ll always remember on Friday nights lying in front of the TV, recording the Dukes on a cassette tape recorder (no vcr then) just so I could listen to the show throughout the week till the next friday. I’d drive my parents crazy. Good Times!
Great video Derek. I couldn't fight the urge to wait until Friday to watch it. I'm honored that you used my picture in your video. It made my day. Thank you. Keep up the great work, and take care.
Hahaha i was wondering if you'd manage to wait til Friday!!! Thank you so much for sending in the picture! I wanted to use the Ghost of General Lee you built but wasnt able to work it in. I'll find a project to slip that into soon!!
The dukes of hazzard is still 1st show of all time to me and my family God bless❤😊 Dukes of Hazzard reunion and Hollywood was great ❤ as well as the whole series. Toby Keith was great on there as well
You did a wonderful job putting this video together. It was great to see all the highlights through the years. Dukes is one of my favorite shows and I never missed a Friday night starting in 1979. Yee-Ha!
Thank you very much for such an awesome two part video!! I've been a fan of The Dukes of Hazzard since I was a kid!! I was about about two months shy of being five years old!! Now I will be fifty years old on Aprit 6th, forty five years later!! And is, and always will be my favorite show of all time!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed! The full interview is also posted on UA-cam as well! Dukes of Hazzard will forever be one of the greatest shows to come from television
Thank you chunky for the new content and updates. I loved this video so much. It’s my dream to meet John and Tom. Hope one day our paths cross somewhere as well. You are great!
👍👍Wow what an awesome collection of events. I have been to probably 90% of them. It was great seeing a whole recap of what has gone on the last 20 years. I need to pull out the old VHS tapes and check them out first hand. Definitely will be at the 25th anniversary and I hope to catch up with you at that event. Keep up the great content and as always STAY REBEL
That's so cool you were able to go to these events, I'm jealous! You definitely should pull out those VHS tapes, maybe take them to a place and get them digitalized and post them! That would be super cool to see! I'm so glad you enjoyed, more stuff coming soon!
Chunk your dedication to this franchise is outstanding, i love the content your making, this caught my eye, and pt 1 and 2 were a great watch, keep up the good work this year, keep it between the ditches bro, and seeing how you own a FORD truck, the next could hopefully be a muscle car of some sort, say possibly a Dodge charger, maybe the newer ones/ i so would.
I greatly appreciate that! I love the Dukes of Hazzard, and it would surely be a shame to see the show disappear to history. My mindset is that if I don't do what I kind of help preserve it, who will? And I would love to own a Dodge charger someday, or even a challenger! It's currently not in my budget though, but hopefully the UA-cam video start to pop off and first thing I'll do is get one in Orange haha!!!
I didn't know it was the 25th anniversary of Cooter's Place until last week when wearing my Dukes of Hazzard shirt to my bowling league last week and a guy from the team I was playing against told me "Hey, you know it's the 25th anniversary right?"
FANTASTIC STUFF KID!!!! Loved watching this... Thanks for the heads up about an upcoming DUKES event in VA. Less than 2hrs away. Definitely see ya there!! Keep in touch. 🧡🧡01🧡🧡 ORANGE CARS MATTER!
What’s crazy to me is NC was able to move so swiftly to get the flag cancelled but yet did nothing to address the real issue which is the guns. They literally looked at a guy with a gun in one hand and a flag in the other said clearly the flag is the problem, let’s take that away. The flag while often used as a hate symbol (and really doesn’t belong on anything other than a General Lee) is not the weapon and wasn’t used to kill those ppl, the gun was and honestly that should’ve been the focus. It would’ve saved Dukes from cancellation and actually might have made a difference in mass shootings
Neither the gun or the flag is the problem… Neither of those kill people without a crazy person involved. The real issue is mental health, there is a major mental health crisis in this country that nobody wants to talk about.
I love how accurate you are with this video it's awesome dude I got to say in my opinion you're the best dukes of Hazzard UA-camr out there even though I've been watching you since your GTA days I love this content way more And I love how Ben jones still makes dukes of hazzard merchandise I recently read an article about actors defending dukes and I love how Ben Jones said I'll fight them till hell freezes over and I'll fight them on thin ice which is exactly what he's doing and I love that he's doing that cuz that means generation kids like me get to enjoy the dukes of Hazzard, I did get to see it on cmt. heck I even went to Walmart and bought the general Lee model before they took it off the shelf. every Sunday I got home from church I would watch The dukes of Hazzard on cmt, I even used to watch the marathons that thet put on my brother who is now deceased now I have memories with him I'd watch it with him on late nights I have my little hot wheel it looks similar to a general Lee but it wasn't even a charger but I still enjoyed playing with it while watching the show. chunkey all I got to say is thank you for keeping this alive. And to 45 more years of the dukes of Hazzard yeeeehaw
Oh yeah I also forgot to mention Ben Jones. Thank you chunkey and thank you Ben Jones for keeping dukes alive and to 45 more years of dukes of Hazzard.
Thank you so much man! And same here, i remember watching Dukes on CMT and going to Walmart and buying a General Lee Snap-together model kit! I also got that General Lee that lights up at Walmart too! I have a lot of respect for Ben and seeing what he's done through the years to keep the show alive is incredible! Also, I'm very sorry to hear about your brother man. 🙏❤️
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 I remember that to the light up general Lee I was never born that early so I never got one of those but I was born just early enough to where I could go to tsc aka tractor supply co and buy the 1/64th scale ertl general Lee I have both models to the snap it and the normal one they were fun to build except my normal model is the 2012 rebox where they oranged out the flag but its was still fun to build and still had decals they just hid it in the box but other than that thank you stay rebel 🔥
I thought it was stupid they canceled the show after the shooting in SC. I was in my 20's when the NAACP started boycotting SC over the confederate flag being on the state capitol and thought at the time leave history alone and I still feel that way. today our history is being wiped out all over the country. I'm 47 and born and raised in NC. I never knew about the collector cars since I haven't bought little cars since I was a teenager. I do have the second complete season of the show..
This is a great video, impeccably researched and presented. With one glaring exception. You mentioned the 2008 Dukes Fest took place during a recession, but then showed a picture of Obama for some reason. The Dukes Fest took place June 28-29th and Obama wasn’t even elected until five month later, and didn’t take office until 2009. You posted a picture of the wrong President. The president at the time was George W Bush
Obama is the face of that recession. Just as how Biden is the face of Covid. Democrats do that shit, they ruin the economy and blame republicans for it.... but if you've done your research on the 2008 recession, all the policies passed that led to that recession were all written and passed by the democrats. So no, I didn't show the wrong president. Obummers cronies are who created the 2008 recession, and those same democrat politicians are also the masterminds behind the current recession we have been in since covid. It may have started under bush, but it was policies passed by democrats that ruined the economy. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, as you can see I am a big time history buff. I do a lot of research on every aspect of my videos. I also am very into politics, and have researched this stuff in depth as well.
To build on that.... you said 2008 was an election year. That is correct, also the peak of the 2008 recession... which gave the media the opportunity to try spinning it and making Bush look bad and Obama like a savior. Now, what was 2020? An election year! Also the peak of the Rona. Which gave the media the opportunity to try spinning it and making Trump look bad and Biden like a savior.
@@ChunkeyMonkey40man I love the Dukes of Hazzard and enjoy your videos but man have you got your politics backwards. 2008 was the height of the recession meaning the events leading up to the recession happened while Bush was president. And while I’m sure there were things bush did at the end of his presidency to help fix the economy. The guy in charge of the country during the events in which the economy improved was all Obama, why do u think he won re-election. He is the face of the recession but as the guy who fixed it not the guy who broke it. And it’s the same with Covid Trump was president at the start of the pandemic and it’s his mismanagement of the country that lead to the economy we have now. When Biden came into office he has handed a dogs dinner of an economy and of course ppl were quick to try and blame it all on him despite the fact he had only just started. And while Biden is by no means a great president (I honestly don’t expect him to win re-election) he’s still the one who will get credit for America recovering from the pandemic
I have the Dukes of Hazzard movie and I love the special features on it but they could have picked a better cast. It didn't have that Duke's Vibe at all from the original shows. I just bought it so I can see General Lee on TV again.
my favorite tv show( the dukes of hazard) - debuted on 1/26 in 1979....my favorite musician/band (eddie van halen) was born on 1/26 in 1955..my mom died on 1/26 in 2021....can you beleive that?
Can we ask u questions here? I have tried to get this to John for about 2 yrs now, can u pass it on to him & give me ur thoughts? I wonder why they didnt have Waylon be or do the Balladeer (Narration) for the 2 movies? Did he just happened unavailable, out on tour, bad health? That would have been a great question for John? Also part 2, Why wasnt Jeff Altman (Huey Hogg) brought back for the 2 movies? Especially since Sorrell Booke (Boss Hogg) has passed, it seems like it would have tied in better with the story line & still had a bit more nostalgia? (Not taking away from Jimmy Best being the new Boss, but he could have battled Huey for it? Like showing up with fake will saying Boss had deeded him Hazzard County, thats my story-line) I have no email or contact info for John but I bet he would have liked my 2 questions, can u pass on to him? That would have been another great question for John? Thanks & I really appreciate ur channel, new subscriber here gonna benge watch it all, Thanks Arkansaw Dave, I had hoped that when they do these reunion tv shows that nostalgia would always be a big part of it especially for the fans, having both Jeff & Waylon would have helped more with that, ur thoughts? That would have also continued the legacy. PS- Was Chip Mayer (Vance) ever involved or a part of the Dukes Fest, alongside Byron (Coy) u think the 2 would have been together but he wasnt mentioned, (RIP b4 2011) any reason? Thanks as an avid Dukes fan who literally grew up watching the show, fans have often asked these questions, thanks..Finally bringing back Jeff Altman (Huey) thanks for all the 411..
Ive always wondered that as well, i had a few questions about both Hughie and Waylon for the interview but i was unable to ask them due to timing. We only had an hour for the interview so a lot of questions were cut due to time sake, however I will hopefully be interviewing John again in the near future
I like the movie, I totally understand why so many people are pissed by it but I think it is a good movie, I just looked at it as a spin for a new century and new generation.
I personally enjoyed the movie to an extent, it was very funny! But I just struggle with looking at it as the Dukes of Hazzard, to me it's more of a Dukes of Hazzard SNL skit than it is an official Dukes Reboot
He was there, and helped but it was Gary who initially tracked it down. Travis Bell is a big-time liar and fraud in the Dukes community, and hes stolen lots of money in the past from folks. He's not a good person and not somebody I even want to give the time of day or any attention.
And not to mention, after he bought out Gary Schneider, he destroyed the car. Lee One no longer exists, he built a replica of lee one with some parts from the car.... he sold every body panel, the doors, roof of the car... everything that makes it a general Lee
@ChunkeyMonkey40 From what I've been told and have heard and read. Travis pulled the car around to shows as it was but kids were picking the lead paint off the car and it just got to be too much so he eventually sold it to a guy who sold it to a man in Florida who hired Travis to rebuild it back to its original pre jump state. The doors on LEE1 were not the original anyway, and neither were the wheels. I heard the top is original bc a guy water sanded it to uncover the original painted flag. Yeah he had to replace panels and tons of other pieces of the car to get it back to it's original state. Concrete had been just poured into the trunk to level the weight for the jump so you know all that had to be replaced. But the guy later sold the car on the Barrett-Jackson auto auction for around $110,000 to golfer Bubba Watson. Bubba had it for a few years and when the country lost it's mind due to the flag Bubba put out a tweet saying he was going to paint over the flag. But in reality, he sold the car to a guy in Texas. Flag is still on it. If you talk to John again ask him about it bc I'm just going on what I heard and read. Not trying to argue. I'm a fan of your channel. Keep up the good work
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 as much as what you said is true, sadly there really wasn't much left of the original Lee 1 anyway, as it seemed pretty much stripped of any usable parts to use to build subsequent GLs after it made that iconic jump on Nov. 11, 1978. I've also read where more of the original body could've been salvaged, but for whatever reason, wasn't. The bottom line always comes down to the almighty dollar, and no doubt TB made as much as he possibly could at the expense of preservation. As a Dukes fan since the show's inception, I too believe Lee 1 exists as a recreation, not a restoration.
John should make a new Duke's movie looking for boss and he can have jb the governor of Illinois as boss hog he looks and acts just like boss did in the show's
But I think there’s still one question on my mind and it’s will Bo and Luke and daisy and the general lee return ? And maybe Bo and Luke will have wife’s
I would have been 8 or so when the movie came out and was indeed too young to understand at all the mockery it was. I do definitely agree the movie was garbage and while at 8 I got the movie at a Walmart watched it that night and idk how but the DVD got dropped behind somewhere and I never seen it again. I already had all the original shows seasons in boxsets. I love Sean William Scott one of my favorite actors of all time. So that sucked. I'm glad they were apologetic to John at the premiere at least. I wanna be a General Lee stunt driver thats cool stuff
i feel as long as people buy the dvd boxset like i have the show is not going away it will mean that tv channels like tv land and cmt will just loose out on the money they could be making i found on a streaming channel classic tv they show season 1 of the dukes of hazzard i been lucky i got 2 car models a general lee and daisy's jeep and collected the small cars too i agree the 2 movies without the real cast was weak just a thought if john schneider has a studio maybe he needs to make a new dukes movie am sure he could get daisy , luke, cooter, cletus & enos to be in it but i see he might have an issue with warner bros rights to the show like change the title to the good ole boy's of hazzard county he could ask the people like ohio dukes stunt team to help with car jumps and wrecks etc even put the word out online if anyone wants to be an extra in the movie you might not be paid but hey to be in a movie great huh? just an idea ya'll
I loved the 2005 movie but it started the downfall of the dukes franchise. And now in this rediculous woke world we live in they call it racist, which is sad. There was absolutely nothing, NOTHING Racist about the Dukes.. long live the general Lee and the Dukes of Hazard
The 2005 was a great movie in a sense of comedy, however it just was not the Dukes of Hazzard, I look at it more as the Dukes of Hazzard skit than anything lol.
The Dukes Of Hazzard is one of my favorite shows and I discovered it in 2019 just when they stopped syndication so I watch them on dvd now and I never get board, I think this rebel flag stuff is complete crap as I have a model of the general Lee. I wish dukes fest was still going but unfortunately it’s not but I’m planning on making a trip to Cooters place, the dukes of hazzard will log on for a great legacy in television and family’s
Great videos thanks! I love the screen-shot of Obama and Biden as if they were to blame for the Bush recession. It’s time for the south to rise and grow up.
Glad you enjoyed the video, and the photo of obummer and bidumb is there because it was their democrat cronies are the reason for the recession, and they accelerated the severity of the 2008 recession. Do some research, they were behind that one and they are behind this current one we are in
There was ONE thing missing from this documentary I was hoping you would cover. Did that douche bag Bubba Watson follow through with his "happy to cave to the woke crowd" threat of destroying his General Lee by removing the rebel flag on the roof? In 2015 he was almost beside himself in woke smugness promising to destroy an original car. Many of us offered to buy it from him before he could destroy it but as far as I know, he didn't sell it to anyone. This was a great documentary BTW. I still get emotional when it comes to the Dukes. I grew up watching the show when they aired live and still have some of the memorabilia I had as a kid..
Bubba Watson never did paint over the rebel flag, he ended up selling the car to a private owner down south. Lee One was at bo's extravaganza last year, i showed a picture of john, tom, and byron standing beside it. Rebel flag still on roof. Granted, lee 1 is no longer lee 1. Travis Bell destroyed that car when he took all the original parts off and replaced everything, it's a replica of Lee one, the only thing left thats original to it are the chassis and driveshaft. Everything else is from another car.
The movie with Knoxville and Willie Nelson,Sean William Scott.Burt Reynolds was a absolute joke playing boss hogg & Willie playing Uncle Jesse - pitiful.Jess Simpson playing Daisy .R there no brunette's in Hollywood.!? JOKE!!!!!!!!;

They literally looked at a guy with a gun in one hand and a flag in the other said clearly the flag is the problem, let’s take that away. The flag while often used as a hate symbol (and really doesn’t belong on anything other than a General Lee) is not the weapon and wasn’t used to kill those ppl, the gun was and honestly that should’ve been the focus. It would’ve saved Dukes from cancellation and actually might have made a difference in mass shootings
Neither the gun or the flag is the problem… Neither of those kill people without a crazy person involved. The real issue is mental health, there is a major mental health crisis in this country that nobody wants to talk about.
Thank you so much for your cool videos
I'm so glad you enjoy them Scott!
I love how accurate you are with this video it's awesome dude I got to say in my opinion you're the best dukes of Hazzard UA-camr out there even though I've been watching you since your GTA days I love this content way more And I love how Ben jones still makes dukes of hazzard merchandise I recently read an article about actors defending dukes and I love how Ben Jones said I'll fight them till hell freezes over and I'll fight them on thin ice which is exactly what he's doing and I love that he's doing that cuz that means generation kids like me get to enjoy the dukes of Hazzard, I did get to see it on cmt. heck I even went to Walmart and bought the general Lee model before they took it off the shelf. every Sunday I got home from church I would watch The dukes of Hazzard on cmt, I even used to watch the marathons that thet put on my brother who is now deceased now I have memories with him I'd watch it with him on late nights I have my little hot wheel it looks similar to a general Lee but it wasn't even a charger but I still enjoyed playing with it while watching the show. chunkey all I got to say is thank you for keeping this alive. And to 45 more years of the dukes of Hazzard yeeeehaw
Oh yeah I also forgot to mention Ben Jones. Thank you chunkey and thank you Ben Jones for keeping dukes alive and to 45 more years of dukes of Hazzard.
Thank you so much man! And same here, i remember watching Dukes on CMT and going to Walmart and buying a General Lee Snap-together model kit! I also got that General Lee that lights up at Walmart too! I have a lot of respect for Ben and seeing what he's done through the years to keep the show alive is incredible! Also, I'm very sorry to hear about your brother man. 🙏❤️
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 it's ok may he rest now but keep doing these vids cause you are knocking it out of the park 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 I remember that to the light up general Lee I was never born that early so I never got one of those but I was born just early enough to where I could go to tsc aka tractor supply co and buy the 1/64th scale ertl general Lee I have both models to the snap it and the normal one they were fun to build except my normal model is the 2012 rebox where they oranged out the flag but its was still fun to build and still had decals they just hid it in the box but other than that thank you stay rebel 🔥
The Dukes of Hazzard is The Greatest Show Ever Thanks so much for your videos your awesome God Bless Brother
Yes indeed it was! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video brother!
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 I just got Moonrunners on dve and 01 Dukes of Hazzard socks from Cooters website
Bravo 👏 awsome,thank you
Im so glad you enjoyed brother!!!
61 degrees in Chicago. Took the General out of hibernation for the day
Ayeeee hell yeah!!!!! Drive safe, keep it between the ditches haha!
Yee haaa been waiting for the 2nd part
I hope you enjoyed, Mark!!!
i don't think my charger could beat the ole duke boys
Hahaha yeahhh the General can outrun anything and everything!
I thought it was stupid they canceled the show after the shooting in SC. I was in my 20's when the NAACP started boycotting SC over the confederate flag being on the state capitol and thought at the time leave history alone and I still feel that way. today our history is being wiped out all over the country. I'm 47 and born and raised in NC. I never knew about the collector cars since I haven't bought little cars since I was a teenager. I do have the second complete season of the show..
It really is crazy that after all these years it took them almost 40 years to even think about taking the show down because of the flag. So stupid!
Nice job!
Thanks!
Big bro on the hood slide 😅😅 good for you
Haha thanks bud
This is a great video, impeccably researched and presented.
With one glaring exception.
You mentioned the 2008 Dukes Fest took place during a recession, but then showed a picture of Obama for some reason.
The Dukes Fest took place June 28-29th and Obama wasn’t even elected until five month later, and didn’t take office until 2009.
You posted a picture of the wrong President. The president at the time was George W Bush
Obama is the face of that recession. Just as how Biden is the face of Covid. Democrats do that shit, they ruin the economy and blame republicans for it.... but if you've done your research on the 2008 recession, all the policies passed that led to that recession were all written and passed by the democrats. So no, I didn't show the wrong president. Obummers cronies are who created the 2008 recession, and those same democrat politicians are also the masterminds behind the current recession we have been in since covid. It may have started under bush, but it was policies passed by democrats that ruined the economy.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video, as you can see I am a big time history buff. I do a lot of research on every aspect of my videos. I also am very into politics, and have researched this stuff in depth as well.
To build on that.... you said 2008 was an election year. That is correct, also the peak of the 2008 recession... which gave the media the opportunity to try spinning it and making Bush look bad and Obama like a savior. Now, what was 2020? An election year! Also the peak of the Rona. Which gave the media the opportunity to try spinning it and making Trump look bad and Biden like a savior.
@@ChunkeyMonkey40man I love the Dukes of Hazzard and enjoy your videos but man have you got your politics backwards.
2008 was the height of the recession meaning the events leading up to the recession happened while Bush was president. And while I’m sure there were things bush did at the end of his presidency to help fix the economy. The guy in charge of the country during the events in which the economy improved was all Obama, why do u think he won re-election. He is the face of the recession but as the guy who fixed it not the guy who broke it.
And it’s the same with Covid Trump was president at the start of the pandemic and it’s his mismanagement of the country that lead to the economy we have now. When Biden came into office he has handed a dogs dinner of an economy and of course ppl were quick to try and blame it all on him despite the fact he had only just started. And while Biden is by no means a great president (I honestly don’t expect him to win re-election) he’s still the one who will get credit for America recovering from the pandemic
Great Job 👍
Thank you!
I wish I had more for that collection but it’s hard to find some
It takes a long time and quite a bit of money these days to build a Dukes collection, you got a great one so far bro!
I have the Dukes of Hazzard movie and I love the special features on it but they could have picked a better cast. It didn't have that Duke's Vibe at all from the original shows. I just bought it so I can see General Lee on TV again.
I so agree with you! The movie was good for what it was, it was very funny overall but it really was not the Dukes of Hazzard
my favorite tv show( the dukes of hazard) - debuted on 1/26 in 1979....my favorite musician/band (eddie van halen) was born on 1/26 in 1955..my mom died on 1/26 in 2021....can you beleive that?
Wow! I'm so sorry to hear about your mom, but that's pretty wild at all three of those things happened on January 26.
Can we ask u questions here? I have tried to get this to John for about 2 yrs now, can u pass it on to him & give me ur thoughts? I wonder why they didnt have Waylon be or do the Balladeer (Narration) for the 2 movies? Did he just happened unavailable, out on tour, bad health? That would have been a great question for John? Also part 2, Why wasnt Jeff Altman (Huey Hogg) brought back for the 2 movies? Especially since Sorrell Booke (Boss Hogg) has passed, it seems like it would have tied in better with the story line & still had a bit more nostalgia? (Not taking away from Jimmy Best being the new Boss, but he could have battled Huey for it? Like showing up with fake will saying Boss had deeded him Hazzard County, thats my story-line) I have no email or contact info for John but I bet he would have liked my 2 questions, can u pass on to him? That would have been another great question for John? Thanks & I really appreciate ur channel, new subscriber here gonna benge watch it all, Thanks Arkansaw Dave, I had hoped that when they do these reunion tv shows that nostalgia would always be a big part of it especially for the fans, having both Jeff & Waylon would have helped more with that, ur thoughts? That would have also continued the legacy. PS- Was Chip Mayer (Vance) ever involved or a part of the Dukes Fest, alongside Byron (Coy) u think the 2 would have been together but he wasnt mentioned, (RIP b4 2011) any reason? Thanks as an avid Dukes fan who literally grew up watching the show, fans have often asked these questions, thanks..Finally bringing back Jeff Altman (Huey) thanks for all the 411..
Ive always wondered that as well, i had a few questions about both Hughie and Waylon for the interview but i was unable to ask them due to timing. We only had an hour for the interview so a lot of questions were cut due to time sake, however I will hopefully be interviewing John again in the near future
What up duke fans
This was dope video love kid rock and dukes of hazzard
Hell yeah! Kid Rock and the Dukes of Hazzard are awesome! Glad you enjoyed!
I like the movie, I totally understand why so many people are pissed by it but I think it is a good movie, I just looked at it as a spin for a new century and new generation.
I love the 2005 movie.
None of the movie versions of the old TV shows are the same.
I personally enjoyed the movie to an extent, it was very funny! But I just struggle with looking at it as the Dukes of Hazzard, to me it's more of a Dukes of Hazzard SNL skit than it is an official Dukes Reboot
I'm not trying to be rude but Travis Bell is the one who rediscovered Lee1 down in a Dawsonville GA junk yard.
He was there, and helped but it was Gary who initially tracked it down. Travis Bell is a big-time liar and fraud in the Dukes community, and hes stolen lots of money in the past from folks. He's not a good person and not somebody I even want to give the time of day or any attention.
And not to mention, after he bought out Gary Schneider, he destroyed the car. Lee One no longer exists, he built a replica of lee one with some parts from the car.... he sold every body panel, the doors, roof of the car... everything that makes it a general Lee
@ChunkeyMonkey40 From what I've been told and have heard and read. Travis pulled the car around to shows as it was but kids were picking the lead paint off the car and it just got to be too much so he eventually sold it to a guy who sold it to a man in Florida who hired Travis to rebuild it back to its original pre jump state. The doors on LEE1 were not the original anyway, and neither were the wheels. I heard the top is original bc a guy water sanded it to uncover the original painted flag. Yeah he had to replace panels and tons of other pieces of the car to get it back to it's original state. Concrete had been just poured into the trunk to level the weight for the jump so you know all that had to be replaced. But the guy later sold the car on the Barrett-Jackson auto auction for around $110,000 to golfer Bubba Watson. Bubba had it for a few years and when the country lost it's mind due to the flag Bubba put out a tweet saying he was going to paint over the flag. But in reality, he sold the car to a guy in Texas. Flag is still on it. If you talk to John again ask him about it bc I'm just going on what I heard and read. Not trying to argue. I'm a fan of your channel. Keep up the good work
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 as much as what you said is true, sadly there really wasn't much left of the original Lee 1 anyway, as it seemed pretty much stripped of any usable parts to use to build subsequent GLs after it made that iconic jump on Nov. 11, 1978. I've also read where more of the original body could've been salvaged, but for whatever reason, wasn't. The bottom line always comes down to the almighty dollar, and no doubt TB made as much as he possibly could at the expense of preservation. As a Dukes fan since the show's inception, I too believe Lee 1 exists as a recreation, not a restoration.
Rip Toby Keith ride high in the sky
Don’t forget Nikki Haley was the start of the cancellation of the flag.
Keep watching lol, discussed that towards the end of the video
I grow up with the 2005 dukes of hazzard movie for me it was a good funny movie with cool chase scenes and cool music soundtrack
John should make a new Duke's movie looking for boss and he can have jb the governor of Illinois as boss hog he looks and acts just like boss did in the show's
Haha that'd be interesting!
Yeee Yeee!
Yeeee Haaaa!!!
What’s up chunky monkey, Yeee!
Hazzard forever!!!
Yesss always!
But I think there’s still one question on my mind and it’s will Bo and Luke and daisy and the general lee return ? And maybe Bo and Luke will have wife’s
Maybe one day, but I don't think it would happen just because of Warner Brothers and how they regret making the show. They resent it so much, its sad.
Good video, rip to them
RIP Toby Keith
Yes indeed. Toby Keith was a legend in country music and he will never be forgotten! 🇺🇸
wish you could ask John why they never did an episode about how the cousins parents died since they get asked this a lot by fans
I had a question about that, but due to us only having an hour to talk, I didn't have the time to ask him
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 thanks I',m glad I'm not the only one who thought of that
I would have been 8 or so when the movie came out and was indeed too young to understand at all the mockery it was. I do definitely agree the movie was garbage and while at 8 I got the movie at a Walmart watched it that night and idk how but the DVD got dropped behind somewhere and I never seen it again. I already had all the original shows seasons in boxsets. I love Sean William Scott one of my favorite actors of all time. So that sucked. I'm glad they were apologetic to John at the premiere at least. I wanna be a General Lee stunt driver thats cool stuff
i feel as long as people buy the dvd boxset like i have the show is not going away it will mean that tv channels like tv land and cmt will just loose out on the money they could be making
i found on a streaming channel classic tv they show season 1 of the dukes of hazzard i been lucky i got 2 car models a general lee and daisy's jeep and collected the small cars too
i agree the 2 movies without the real cast was weak just a thought if john schneider has a studio maybe he needs to make a new dukes movie am sure he could get daisy , luke, cooter, cletus & enos to be in it but i see he might have an issue with warner bros rights to the show like change the title to the good ole boy's of hazzard county he could ask the people like ohio dukes stunt team
to help with car jumps and wrecks etc even put the word out online if anyone wants to be an extra in the movie you might not be paid but hey to be in a movie great huh? just an idea ya'll
John actually did a movie very similar to Dukes, it was called Christmas cars! It was a very great movie!
But yes the DVD box set really helps keep the show alive! It's a miracle that Warner Brothers is even selling that!
Rip Toby 😢
Toby was such a legend, he will never be forgotten
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 one of My fave country singers!
@leecaddick8502 same!!!
@@ChunkeyMonkey40 it was really sad seeing such a big guy waste away! Fuck cancer!! Still had an amazing voice right until the end tho!
I found five dollars today.
Lucky haha!

🤘🏽🇺🇸
I loved the 2005 movie but it started the downfall of the dukes franchise. And now in this rediculous woke world we live in they call it racist, which is sad. There was absolutely nothing, NOTHING Racist about the Dukes.. long live the general Lee and the Dukes of Hazard
The 2005 was a great movie in a sense of comedy, however it just was not the Dukes of Hazzard, I look at it more as the Dukes of Hazzard skit than anything lol.
And you are right, Dukes was never racist, they never spoke a word of hate!
no part one here in canada
Here is the link to watch part one, it's on my UA-cam channel 🔗 ua-cam.com/video/SuTfTdO95OQ/v-deo.html
To this day ! I don’t have kind words for Nikki Haley , Tv land , Warner brothers ! They can stick it where sun don’t shine !!!! General lee 01 🤘
I hope Trump bodies her in the election! I think he will! Nobody likes her
The Duke of Hazzard is the best show ever and I love watchig the dude I have 7
Nice work chunkey Duke 🤟🤒
Thank you so much!
Please bring back
You are awesome keep it up
Thank you so much!!!
I prefer the og dukes of hazard
Same!
The Dukes Of Hazzard is one of my favorite shows and I discovered it in 2019 just when they stopped syndication so I watch them on dvd now and I never get board, I think this rebel flag stuff is complete crap as I have a model of the general Lee. I wish dukes fest was still going but unfortunately it’s not but I’m planning on making a trip to Cooters place, the dukes of hazzard will log on for a great legacy in television and family’s
Heck yeah!!!! I hope to see you there at Cooter's In Luray this July! Should be a great time!
Great videos thanks!
I love the screen-shot of Obama and Biden as if they were to blame for the Bush recession. It’s time for the south to rise and grow up.
Glad you enjoyed the video, and the photo of obummer and bidumb is there because it was their democrat cronies are the reason for the recession, and they accelerated the severity of the 2008 recession. Do some research, they were behind that one and they are behind this current one we are in
Bit of an odd question, does anyone know where Lee 1 is? I know Bubba sold him.
It is in private ownership by someone in texas, still has the rebel flag on it too
There was ONE thing missing from this documentary I was hoping you would cover. Did that douche bag Bubba Watson follow through with his "happy to cave to the woke crowd" threat of destroying his General Lee by removing the rebel flag on the roof? In 2015 he was almost beside himself in woke smugness promising to destroy an original car. Many of us offered to buy it from him before he could destroy it but as far as I know, he didn't sell it to anyone.
This was a great documentary BTW. I still get emotional when it comes to the Dukes. I grew up watching the show when they aired live and still have some of the memorabilia I had as a kid..
Bubba Watson never did paint over the rebel flag, he ended up selling the car to a private owner down south. Lee One was at bo's extravaganza last year, i showed a picture of john, tom, and byron standing beside it. Rebel flag still on roof. Granted, lee 1 is no longer lee 1. Travis Bell destroyed that car when he took all the original parts off and replaced everything, it's a replica of Lee one, the only thing left thats original to it are the chassis and driveshaft. Everything else is from another car.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! This took a lot of work and a lot of research to put together, I'm beyond proud of it
Twin falls Idaho
The 2005 on its own is an ok b movie. Its got it's funny moments and decent stunts, but compared to the show it's a dumpster fire.
I don't think there is any part of that movie that is any good
Just a complete opposite of what the show was about
The movie with Knoxville and Willie Nelson,Sean William Scott.Burt Reynolds was a absolute joke playing boss hogg & Willie playing Uncle Jesse - pitiful.Jess Simpson playing Daisy .R there no brunette's in Hollywood.!? JOKE!!!!!!!!;
