Dukes Of Hazzard - Revisiting The Filming Locations

0:25 when I think of television shows that

0:25 molded my life I think of a few one of

0:28 them has to be the Dukes of Hazard in

0:31 1979 the first season of Dukes of Hazard

0:34 was filmed right

0:58 the a lot of the car chases were

0:58 actually filmed right behind me here on

1:00 this town circle see all around me here

1:04 ladies over there sitting on the vent

1:05 are staring at me wondering what I'm

1:06 doing I guy driving the truck is

1:09 disturbing the audio on this video but

1:11 yes right along this road here where the

1:14 general Le is being chased by Rosco

1:43 right there is where the General Lee

1:44 would have parked check out this

1:47 tree check out this tree right here you

1:50 can see in the shot from the show the

1:52 tree was just little teeny now it's

1:54 grown up the General Lee would have been

1:57 parked right here here's where the two

1:59 guys were sitting watching the cars run

2:01 around the town square they were looking

2:03 back and forth left to right they were

2:05 sitting right here check out these

2:07 railings in the original TV show these

2:09 railings are exactly the same the doors

2:12 have been redone and they're in the

2:13 Christmas spirit here in Covington this

2:16 railing right here is definitely still

2:19 in the Dukes of Hazard Spirit see if you

2:21 can figure out the concoction known as

2:23 the Covington Town Square Road

2:26 area none of it makes any sense stop

2:29 lights field signs got a little bit of a

2:32 traffic jam up here we need Rosco to

2:33 direct some traffic the Duke boy had a

2:36 Heyday here and that guy is having a Hey

2:38 Day listen to his rap music that guy

2:41 definitely not a Duke

2:43 fan what would Uncle Jesse say what

2:46 would Uncle Jesse say you might

2:48 recognize this shot from the opening

2:50 credits this is where the General Lee

2:53 ramped

2:59 off I'm going to recreate the scene now

2:59 for

3:11 you lost my glasses this would be a shot

3:11 of where the orphanage was from the

3:14 original Dukes of Hazard episodes it's a

3:16 lot nicer than it was originally not hit

3:19 too hard the whole orphanage is going to

3:20 fall in right along in here you can keep

3:22 an eye out for a young Rusty from

3:25 National Lampoon European Vacation

3:32 was in the back of the General Lee right

3:32 here in this vicinity spitting at bugs

3:35 on the

3:37 windshield so you may wonder where we're

3:39 at now on a small college campus and

3:42 right behind me is the final shot in

3:44 every credit sequence from The Dukes of

3:46 Hazard check it out over

3:53 there modern day Robin Hood

4:04 General Lee would have jumped Rosco's

4:04 car right over here in this

4:18 area Rosco would have ducked his head

4:18 down cuz he was scared the general re

4:20 would have landed right

4:23 here that's my sound effect

4:32 why is my hubc cap off well I lost a

4:32 hubc cap trouncing through Hazard County

4:35 just like the General Lee going over

4:37 Hills bouncing through the Wilderness I

4:39 don't even know what I'm saying anyway

4:41 if we look over this way right down this

4:44 path here past my van many times the

4:47 General Lee went down that hill and

4:49 straight towards what now is the New

4:51 Vision Baptist Church Boss Hogs old B's

4:56 Nest right down the same exact pavement

4:59 The General

5:00 scooted down many times and straight

5:03 ahead this way was the B's Nest home to

5:07 the office of Boss

5:08 Hog it's where Daisy Duke worked at the

5:12 bar it's where all the Dukes hung

5:21 out right over in here is where the gas

5:21 pumps would have

5:22 been the entrance would have been right

5:25 here underneath the church

5:26 steeple how interesting now that Boss

5:29 Hog place of gambling boozing and

5:32 womanizing is now a Baptist Church you

5:34 got to wonder if they even know that but

5:37 all along here this was the Bor Nest

5:38 memorabilia Bor L sign was right up

5:49 here the B's Nest owned by Boss Hog is

5:53 the slickest club in Hazard all the

5:55 elite go there on this very spot a

5:58 pretty famous scene from The Dukes of

6:00 Hazard from the first couple episodes

6:02 when Daisy Duke pushed Rosco down right

6:05 here and then stole his cop car and sped

6:08 off that way Rosco pulled his gun out

6:11 and tried to shoot and that's also seen

6:14 in the opening credits from every

6:16 episode right here Rosco would have been

6:19 it's Rosco's area hijacking that's

6:22 what's

6:29 the Rosco PE Cole train chased Daisy

6:32 Duke all the way through this entire

6:34 parking lot here it seems so much

6:37 smaller but there was an entire half an

6:39 episode dedicated to a police chase

6:42 right here in this parking

6:45 lot follow that

6:49 car you

6:51 kid

7:07 the piano that was busted was right in

7:09 this area

7:26 here right through here this other door

7:26 down this way right through there is

7:28 where Boss Hog's office would have been

7:30 right on this far end is where Boss Hog

7:33 conducted all his

7:34 business uh well now boss you you know

7:38 I'd do anything in the world for you but

7:40 you know I can't be hauling moonshine in

7:42 the police

7:45 a distance we have ventured off to find

7:47 the Duke's Farmhouse Uncle Jesse's house

7:52 lot of the shots as well as this big

7:54 tree if we come right around here you'll
