100 free Dukes of Hazzard trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
47 free Dukes of Hazzard trivia questions with answers. The Dukes of Hazzard was Friday-night appointment television from 1979 to 1985, second only to Dallas in the ratings and responsible for more wrecked Dodge Chargers than any show before or since. This quiz covers the whole run: the Duke boys' probation and dynamite arrows, Daisy's Jeep and her shorts, Uncle Jesse's feud with J.D. Hogg, Rosco and his basset hound Flash, Enos and Cletus, Cooter's garage, the Balladeer, the year Coy and Vance took over and the 2005 film with Jessica Simpson. The easy questions ask what kind of car the General Lee is and who narrated the show. The hard ones want the 1975 film it grew out of, the real moonshiner behind Bo Duke, Rosco's middle name, why Bo and Luke walked out in season 5, and how many Chargers were used. Built for fans who can still whistle the horn. Every answer was checked against Wikipedia's articles on the series, its characters, cast and cars, and each question carries the sentence that backs it up.

Q 01On which network did The Dukes of Hazzard air from 1979 to 1985?
CBS
CBS ordered only nine episodes, meaning the show as a stopgap in its schedule, and then kept it on the air for seven seasons.
Q 02Which soap aired directly after The Dukes of Hazzard on CBS's Friday nights?
Dallas
Dallas followed it on Friday nights, and the double bill worked: in the 1980-81 season the two shows finished first and second in the Nielsen ratings, Dallas on top.
Q 03Bo and Luke Duke are on probation for what offence?
Running moonshine
Running moonshine: after their conviction Uncle Jesse struck a deal with the government, giving up his own still for good so the boys could go free on probation.
Q 04Because they cannot own firearms, what weapons do the Duke boys use?
Bows and arrows
Bows and arrows keep the boys inside the terms of their probation, and when a plain arrow isn't enough they strap a stick of dynamite to the tip.
Q 05The General Lee is a customised example of which car?
1969 Dodge Charger
1969 Dodge Charger: creator Gy Waldron first pictured a Pontiac Firebird, then let the studio's car experts pick something that could take the punishment.
Q 06What number is painted on the doors of the General Lee?
01
01 was meant as a racing number: creator Gy Waldron said he told the studio's car crew he wanted 'a Zero One on the door as a racing number'.
Q 07After her first car goes off a cliff, what does Daisy Duke drive for the rest of the series?
A Jeep
A Jeep replaced the yellow Plymouth once Bo and Luke, not Daisy, had sent it over the cliff.
Q 08Why do the Dukes climb in and out of the General Lee through the windows?
The doors are welded shut
The doors are welded shut, as on a real racing car, and the scramble in and out through the windows became one of the show's trademarks.
Q 09The car in the 1975 film behind The Dukes of Hazzard was named after General Lee's own horse, called what?
Traveller
Traveller carried Lee into many Civil War battles; for television, creator Gy Waldron renamed the car after the general himself, asking 'why not use the real thing?'
Q 10In its final season, what did The Dukes of Hazzard use for some big jumps?
Miniature models
Miniature models were cheaper than wrecking a real car for every jump, though Tom Wopat said the toy-sized stunts embarrassed everyone on the show.
Q 11Which animation studio turned The Dukes of Hazzard into the 1983 cartoon series The Dukes?
Hanna-Barbera
Hanna-Barbera sent the Duke boys abroad, racing Boss Hogg through places like Greece and Hong Kong, but the cartoon lasted only 20 episodes.
Q 12Which 1975 film, written and directed by Gy Waldron, became the basis for The Dukes of Hazzard?
Moonrunners
Moonrunners, by Waldron's own account, so impressed a Warner Bros. TV producer that he rang in the middle of the night asking for a one-hour action comedy version.
Q 13Who played Daisy Duke in the original Dukes of Hazzard television series?
Catherine Bach
Catherine Bach gave a poster of herself to her old schoolteacher, by then working at the White House, and First Lady Nancy Reagan took a shine to it.
Q 21Where does Daisy Duke work?
The Boar's Nest
The Boar's Nest belongs to Boss Hogg, so waiting tables there lets Daisy overhear his schemes and tip off her cousins.
Q 22When producers wanted Daisy Duke in a poodle skirt and go-go boots, what did the actress bring instead?
Cut-off shorts and heels
Cut-off shorts and heels won the day, but the network feared its censors would object, so she wore sheer tights under the shorts.
Q 23Which deputy almost marries Daisy Duke in the show's second-to-last episode?
Enos Strate
Enos Strate calls the wedding off at the last minute, when the excitement of marrying Daisy brings him out in hives.
Q 14After five episodes shot on location, which state hosted filming of The Dukes of Hazzard?
California
California: production moved to the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, and countryside near Agoura doubled for Hazzard County.
Q 15Who played Bo Duke in the original Dukes of Hazzard series?
John Schneider
John Schneider won the part at 18 after telling the producers he could do stunt driving; by his own admission, he never once jumped the car himself.
Q 16Which Duke usually drives the General Lee?
Bo
Bo drives because racing is his trade: he is the former stock-car driver of the pair, while Luke, the ex-Marine, rides shotgun and makes the plans.
Q 17What is Bo Duke's full first name?
Beauregard
Beauregard stays a secret until the fifth episode, 'High Octane', which unmasks the cousins' legal names; Luke, it turns out, is really a Lucas.
Q 18Which Duke performed the famous hood slide seen in the opening credits?
Luke
Luke's slide began as an accident: Tom Wopat meant to vault the hood, caught his boot heel on the fender and skidded across, and the stumble became a signature move.
Q 19What CB call sign do Bo and Luke share?
Lost Sheep
Lost Sheep fits the family code: Uncle Jesse, forever rounding the boys up and getting them out of trouble, answers the radio as Shepherd.
Q 20The General Lee's horn plays the opening notes of which song?
Dixie
Dixie, long the unofficial anthem of the Confederacy, suits a car named for its most famous general; the custom air horn plays the tune's first twelve notes.
Q 24What is Deputy Enos's catchphrase?
Possum on a gumbush!
Possum on a gumbush! is Enos's cry for every occasion; Rosco's name for him, meanwhile, softened from 'jackass' to 'dipstick' once the show caught on with children.
Q 25Who replaced Enos as deputy in seasons 3 and 4 while Sonny Shroyer starred in his own spin-off?
Cletus Hogg
Cletus Hogg, a cousin of Boss Hogg, traded a job at the local junkyard for a deputy's badge when Enos left for the big city.
Q 26Who played Uncle Jesse Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard?
Denver Pyle
Denver Pyle switched sides for the part: he had been the Texas Ranger who hunts down the outlaws in Bonnie and Clyde, and as Uncle Jesse he helps his nephews outfox a sheriff.
Q 27The Dukes of Hazzard's 1980 spin-off sends one of Hazzard's deputies to join the police in which city?
Los Angeles
Los Angeles: the country lawman joins the LAPD, but the spin-off lasted a single season and he later went back to patrolling Hazzard.
Q 28What do the initials J.D. in Boss Hogg's name stand for?
Jefferson Davis
Jefferson Davis Hogg is named for the Confederacy's president, and in one episode the same actor plays his kindly twin, named for the other side: Abraham Lincoln Hogg.
Q 29What colour are Boss Hogg's trademark suit, hat and Cadillac?
White
White from hat to bumper, and the look runs in the family: his scheming nephew Hughie turns up in a matching suit, driving a little Volkswagen Beetle in the same colour.
Q 30Who played Boss Hogg in The Dukes of Hazzard?
Sorrell Booke
Sorrell Booke was nothing like his greedy backwoods boss: a Yale drama graduate with a long stage career, he spoke five languages, Russian and Japanese among them.
