Well, apparently someone expects The Dukes of Hazzard to return to TV. On Everything2.com, someone has written how to write a Dukes of Hazzard episode. The author goes over all the perceived formulas and cliches found in the run of the series.
Admittedly, given the popularity of southern culture, a Dukes of Hazzard return isn't outside the realm of possibility, merely outside the realm of probability. I think it was written more for a laugh than anything. I would give more credence to the post if the author actually wrote one or more of the episodes, but this doesn't appear to be the case.
The article can be taken as an analysis of the differences between television in the 70's/80's and television today. Today we have the Internet and a variety of research tools for instant access to a television show's history. Back then, there wasn't. Every episode had to end the same way and "reboot" so things were back to normal by the beginning of the next episode.
People embrace changes now that they didn't back then. Coy and Vance were proof of that.
