The Dukes of Hazzard - Wikipedia

On January 26, 1979, “The Dukes of Hazzard,” a television
comedy about two cousins in the rural South and their
souped-up 1969 Dodge Charger known as the General Lee,
debuted on CBS.

The show, which originally aired for seven seasons, centered
around cousins Bo Duke (John Schneider) and Luke Duke
(Tom Wopat) and their ongoing efforts to elude their nemeses,
the crooked county commissioner “Boss” Jefferson Davis
Hogg (Sorrell Booke) and the bumbling Sheriff Rosco P.
Coltrane (James Best).

The show was consistently among the top-viewed television
series in the late 1970s and early 1980s (at one point, ranking
second only to Dallas, which immediately followed the show
on CBS’s Friday night schedule).
