K&F Show Summary:

2025 is here! We're kicking things off with a look at what we're in for this year, Bernie on the News, and a look at Tim Allen's new ABC car-themed sitcom: Shifting Gears. We're going to add it to the pop culture review!

Dukes Review: This is the first episode to release in 1985 and was (as of right now) exactly 40 years ago! By this point in the show the series was actually over. Filming had ceased. Actors were looking for new jobs. General Lee’s were sitting idly, waiting for a young Corndog to document them, knowing that there were 27 General Lee’s at the time and he stashed 8 of them for himself to find when he grew up. Tom Wopat directs the episode and - like his previous episodes - really gives fan service, interesting camera angles, and always establishes where the General is. There are no miniatures used of any kind - only recycled footage of jumps and new wrecks. At the end everyone is on scene together and happy. Rosco is over the top funny. It’s a really nice episode. White there are no new jumps, there are new stunts in it - including a big General Lee wreck that is potentially that last GL to be wrecked on screen. But I have to admit…it kind of seems like a goodbye.

8 Corndogs.
