2 unusual facts about Bo Duke


Bo Duke

(Actor Tom Wopat had trouble mastering the high-pitched yell early on, and on the opening credits and many examples within the episodes, it is actually a recording of John Schneider's version used twice to represent both Duke boys' yell).

Bo later left Hazzard County, along with his cousin Luke, to join the NASCAR circuit (coinciding with Schneider's and Wopat's decision to walk out of the show during the fifth season over a dispute over royalties owed), although how they managed to do this with the probation conditions in place, was never revealed; Bo's cousin Coy (Byron Cherry), who was very similar in both appearance and nature to Bo, replaced Bo until he returned to the show a few months later.
