Thumbs down Coy and Vance

Do you think the show was pretty much finished when Coy and Vance replaced Bo and Luke? Even when Bo and Luke returned- I think they were only gone for a year, I don't think the show was ever as good as the first few years.

What do you think?

I agree...

You're right, the show was much better in the first two or three seasons.

There was definitely damage done when the original Dukes left.
Since I watched the show regularly from the first episode, it was a big disappointment when John and Tom left.

Yeah, I'm in agreement with you there as well.

The show jumped the shark when John Schneider and Tom Wopat left, and in came Byron Cherry and Christopher Mayer. Hard not to notice the change in everything once that happened. Just wasn't as fun anymore.

I stopped watching the show after Coy and Vance joined the show. I didn't see the later shows with Bo and Luke until they went into reruns.

Coy and Vance were a waste of time. They should have changed the name of the show to The Idiots of Hazzard when those two became the main characters and switched it back to Dukes when John and Tom came back.

The Idiots of Hazzard. Finally someone speaks the truth! Coy and Vance stunk up the place for sure.

Bringing Coy & Vance to the show was like replacing Folgers Crystals with regular coffee grounds

I won't be purchasing the Coy & Vance season if they make to that season with the DVD releases. Hopefully, they'll just skip over that season. It'll make things easier for the true Duke fans.

I know when they show it on tv I don't even bother watching them. I just wait for the real Duke Boys to come back. I don't know what CBS and WB were thinking anyway. You lose both your stars and you think the show will be just as good.

A horrible show? Oh my dear God, I must be seeing things. Either that or Rod Serling is about to enter this thread. Or I'm having a freakin' nightmare.
