12. Yep

Ben Jones, who played Cooter on The Dukes of Hazzard TV series, has urged fans of the show to stay away from the movie version when it is released in August. Jones, who went on to become a Georgia congressman, before he was defeated by Newt Gingrich in 1994, said that after reading the script of the movie, he had concluded that it was "a sleazy insult to all of us who have cared about The Dukes of Hazzard for so long." Jones's remarks were posted on his website, www.cootersplace.com. "Sure it bothers me that they wanted nothing to do with the cast of our show, but what bothers me much more is the profanity laced script with blatant sexual situations that mocks the good clean family values of our series. Now, anybody who knows me knows that I'm not a prude. But this kind of toilet humor has no place in Hazzard County. Rather than honoring our legendary show, they have chosen to degrade it," he wrote.

Translation: I am a bitter, defeated ex-Congressman who has been living off of the small part I had in a TV show from 20 years ago. I haven't seen the new movie, but I'm sure it sucks because I'm not in it.

14. When I think of "Dukes of Hazzard",...
..I think of Daisy Duke and the General Lee. I don't remember anything about "good, clean family values." As if Daisy Duke wasn't titillating?

It wasn't exactly the most dignified portrayal of rural Southern life. Cooter needs to lighten up a bit.

9. I always thought Coy and Vance were MUCH cuter than Bo and Luke
and they took their shirts off more...like, at least once every episode, plus in the opening credits.

Okay, maybe even at nine years old I was already a LITTLE gay...
