John Schneider and Tom Wopat star as Cousins Bo and Luke in this classic CBS hit.  They are joined by Catherine Beach who plays the sexy Daisy and Denver Pyle as Uncle Jesse.  The show was a fan favorite for six seasons and now younger generations have been introduced to the down home fun.   

In The Dukes of Hazzard: The Complete Fifth Season, Luke and Bo leave Hazzard to fulfill their life long dream of becoming NASCAR racers, while their nemesis Boss Hog plots the ultimate bank robbery.  Little does he know that cousins Coy and Vance Duke, played by Byron Cherry and Christopher Mayer, have returned to Hazzard after 6 years to help Uncle Jesse run the farm.  Boss Hog is no match for the Duke family and time after time, he is defeated in his mischievous plans. 

The Dukes of Hazzard debuted in 1979 and became a huge hit, never failing to win its time slot during its original run on CBS for seven seasons ending in 1985. The Dukes of Hazzard is set in Georgia, and the show's southern influence is felt throughout. Country singing superstar Waylon Jennings performed the famous theme song to the show ("Good Ol' Boys"), and acts as 'The Balladeer,' narrating the adventures of each episode. The series had an extremely successful run in syndication beginning in 1996 on TNN, the Nashville Network, leading to a resurgence in the Dukes’ popularity and continues to be one of the top rated shows on Country Music Television.
