We have totally revamped our auctions section. We’ve included more than just auctions for cast memorabilia. There are now auctions for each character and other Dukes of Hazzard memorabilia like dvds, t-shirts, toys, and more. We also have listings for auctions for REAL General Lees for sale, other Hazzard vehicles, car parts, dixie horns, and more. Check out our Dukes of Hazzard auctions. If there’s something specific you’re looking for, use our handy search function or contact us and ask us to add a page for the items you’re looking for. Enjoy!

Ask anybody around here and Dukes of Hazzard fans would say “YEEHAA!”

AOL Television recently put out their list of TV’s 50 Sexiest Women Ever and Catherine Bach came in at a Dixiefried number 9!

Of course, she’s number 01 to us and always will be!

We love the folks over at TVShowsOnDVD.com. Back in October, they broke the news and we passed along to y’all about the rumours of WB releasing the two original cast reunion movies to DVD (along with the “Enos” series and the short lived Dukes cartoon series). Well mark your calendars y’all! June 10th, The Dukes of Hazzard: Reunion! and The Dukes of Hazzard: Hazzard in Hollywood are being released together! Check out the packaging!!

You can read more about the upcoming release here.

(Thanks Jax for the heads up!)

Despite a weak storyline and endless close-ups of Ford logos, the new Knight Rider tv-movie solidly captured its Sunday night time slot.

Knight Rider pulled away with the highest audience numbers, being over 12 million people, including the all-important male demographic of 18 to 40-something. We’d break down all the numbers in more detail, but we’re lazy and this ain’t about the Dukes of Hazzard anyhow.

NBC is in full peacock strut over Knight Rider’s Sunday night victory, and barring anything unforeseen, the new Knight Rider series is locked in for the fall.

A number of questions remain in light of the Knight Rider resurgence. Will KITT’s new camouflage colors include Hemi Orange? As a Ford, will KITT require even more trips to the maintenance bay for repairs? Can he tow himself?

Meanwhile, The General Lee remains the number 01, all-time popular tv and movie car. Will Warner Bros ever wake up and smell the motor oil?

In 1982, NBC rolled out Knight Rider as their answer to CBS’s wildly popular series, The Dukes of Hazzard.

The two fandoms have raged debates ever since about which car is cooler; The General Lee or the Knight Industries Two Thousand. KITT was everything the General Lee was not; modern, gadget-laden, and smarmy. While the General Lee couldn’t talk, there was something more genuine about the legendary abilities of our favorite Dodge Charger.

Whatever side you’re on, that debate is gearing up to start anew, as the Knight Industries Three Thousand prepares to flash itself around this Sunday night on NBC. The new made-for-tv movie has been heavily promoted on television, radio, and the web, but there’s a fan base in particular NBC is hoping to reach.

It has not gone unnoticed by NBC that all recent Dukes of Hazzard incarnations have drawn a good sized audience. Just as NBC counted on Dukes fans to tune in to Knight Rider back in 1982, they’re hoping for us to show up again on Sunday night. If the ratings are high enough, Knight Rider will go into turbocharged production for a new tv series next fall. A big-screen movie version, long-delayed, is also in the works.

Why should Dukes fans care? Well, if KR makes a successful comeback, it’s possible Warner Bros. might finally bless the new Dukes series project that has been nothing but hushed whispers for the last three years.

Meanwhile, here at HazzardNet, we recognize that Knight Rider fans share our neck of the woods more often than not. Indulge us while we pander to them with a  few KITT pictures. Our Forums contain a Knight Rider discussion, so if you have two cents to throw in about the new KITT, jump in!
