Season 3 finds The Dukes of Hazzard coasting on its popular 1980s formula. Cousins Bo (John Schneider) and Luke (Tom Wopat) Duke are still tearing up the road in their '69 orange Dodge Charger, the General Lee, while Boss Hogg (Sorrell Booke) everlastingly tries to frame them for everything from the theft of his cutlery at the Boar's Nest ("The Hazzardville Horror") to the heist of Stonewall Jackson's sword ("Along Came a Duke"). Meanwhile, leggy cousin Daisy (Catherine Bach) adds some dimension to her eye-candy character by becoming a reporter for the Hazzard Gazette ("By-Line, Daisy Duke") and a kidnap victim ("Enos Strate to the Top") whose innocuous photographs of Uncle Jesse (Denver Pyle) in Atlanta happen to capture a couple of bank robbers in action.

The predictability of the show in its third year by no means makes the series, created by writer-producer Gy Waldron (Moonrunners), anything less than shameless, tongue-in-cheek fun. Booke's cartoonish villain remains an outlandish self-caricature, chortling over every (doomed) opportunity to nail the Dukes and/or take Uncle Jesse's farm through a crooked boxing match ("And in This Corner, Luke Duke"), a bank robbery set up (by Hogg) to appear that Bo and Luke pulled off the crime during the wedding of Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane (James Best, in "Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane"), and even by pretending to be amnesia victim Bo's father ("My Son, Bo Hogg"). After some cast uncertainty in season 2 (boycotts, etc.), things have mostly settled down and Booke's popularity is obviously in ascendance at this point in the show. Special features here include a special welcome by Schneider, Wopat, and Bach, and on-camera commentary by the same trio. --Tom Keogh

5.0 out of 5 stars A true one-of-a-kind television show... April 19, 2005

By Britt Gillette

Format:DVD

In the late 70's and early 80's, television viewers fell in love with The Dukes Of Hazzard, a weekly foray into the fictional setting of Hazzard County, Georgia. Cousins Bo and Luke Duke (John Schneider and Tom Wopat) spent each episode trying to do good, while the loveable "Boss" Hogg (Sorrell Booke) concocted various schemes for making money and having the Duke boys (who always foiled his plans) thrown in jail for violating their probation (the result of a deal with the federal government to end the centuries-old Duke family tradition of bootlegging).

Joining Bo and Luke are their Uncle Jesse (Denver Pyle), a grandfatherly figure who owns the family farm, and Cousin Daisy (Catherine Bach), whose skimpy shorts coined the cultural term "daisy dukes". Along with "Crazy" Cooter (Ben Jones), the local mechanic, they create a formidable threat to the money-making shenanigans of Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane (James Best) and the owner of seemingly every business entity in Hazzard County, "Boss" Hogg.

But critics will argue that the true star of the show was the General Lee, Bo and Luke's bright orange Dodge race car with the Confederate flag pasted on its roof...

The Dukes Of Hazzard (Season 3) DVD provides a number of famous episodes, including guest appearances by musicians Tammy Wynette, Roy Orbison, and The Oak Ridge Boys. Sheriff Little of Chickasaw County (Don Pedro Colley) makes his first of many appearances on the show in Season 3. With Waylon Jennings's weekly narrations as "The Balladeer" (performing artist of the show's legendary, chart-topping theme song), The Dukes Of Hazzard provides hours of family-friendly programming as Boss and Roscoe match wits with the Duke clan...

5.0 out of 5 stars Dukes of Hazzard at their best March 20, 2005

By Rama Rao VINE™ VOICE

Format:DVD

Dukes of Hazzard is one of the funniest comedy-drama that combines the drama of Starsky and Hutch; and the sweet southern charm of Beverly Hillbillies. Every character on this show is lovable and each of them brings to the show his/her talent and makes this show a very entertaining for young and old alike. Of course Bo (John Schneider), the good looking one; and Luke (Tom Wopat), the smart one makes a wonderful team in the lead role. Veteran actors Denver Pyle (Uncle Jesse) and Sorrel Booke (Boss Hogg) bring their years of TV experience to add strength and character to the show. Rosco Coltrane (James Best) as the Sheriff of the county is the funniest and entertained a large population of young viewers during its seven year run There are 23 episodes on four discs in season 3 of the series, and good writing and excellent stories make this season better than the first season. In this season we also see the departure of Deputy Enos Straight and the incoming deputy's role played by Rick Hurst as Cletus Hogg. There are some excellent episodes of the series from season 3; The Great Santa Claus Chase, To Catch a Duke, The Hazzardville Horror, Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane, My Son, Bo Hogg, and The Great Hazzard Hijack are some of the funniest shows, and you don't want to miss this. This is reasonably priced and all fans must own this set.
