Dukes of Hazzard for Night Owls

Or for early risers…like, real early. CMT is broadcasting “The Dukes of Hazzard” on weeknights at 1:00 a.m. Don’t they realize farmers get up early, but not that early? We’re not sure why a family-friendly show like The Dukes of Hazzard is in the same time slot as most infomercials, but it doesn’t bode well.

Many Dukes of Hazzard fans are young viewers and their entire families. It’s one of the few shows on television that you can sit your child in front of and not worry about what they’re going to see or hear. We hope CMT restores the Dukes of Hazzard to an appropriate time slot that would serve the traditional audience of the program.

Check your local listings for the latest CMT schedules. And keep your fingers crossed.

It was only a month ago that the HazzardNet community expressed condolences on the passing of Peggy Rea. It is with sadness again that we offer condolences to the friends and family of Paul R.

His stunt career spanned several decades and numerous films and television shows.

In Memoriam

The HazzardNet community wishes to express its condolences to friends and family of Peggy Rea, who played Lulu Hogg on the Dukes of Hazzard. Peggy passed away February 5th. She was 89. Peggy started her acting career back in the 50’s and is best remembered for her role on the Dukes of Hazzard and also on the Waltons.

She will be greatly missed.

Also, with the recent passing of Peggy, HNet Staff was alerted that actress Neva Patterson, who played the memorable character Swamp Molly in the episode of the same name, passed away December 14th, 2010. She was 90. Neva had many memorable roles throughout her lengthy career, perhaps best remembered as Cary Grant’s fiance in “An Affair to Remember.”

Another great performer who will be greatly missed.

RIP Peggy and Neva.
