Heartwarming / The Dukes of Hazzard

Go To

  • "The Great Santa Claus Chase," the only Dukes' Christmas episode.The Dukes are spending the holidays together, and invite Rosco over with a present for Flash. (Cletus is also invited.) Meanwhile, Boss Hogg ends up reading a copy of A Christmas Carol that Roscoe gave him for Christmas. After finishing it, he feels some remorse for how he usually acts, and drives over to the Dukes' house with an armful of presents, and Uncle Jesse is more than happy to let him in. They may be enemies most of the time, but in their own way, they're all important to each other.
  • "Opening Night At The Boar's Nest" features a sub-plot where Rosco (by way of a magic trick) thinks he made Boss disappear for real (and forever). When Boss sees how genuinely distraught Rosco is, he's very touched. When he reveals he hasn't disappeared after all, Boss gives him a hug... and even allows Rosco to pinch his cheek, something Boss usually absolutely HATES for Rosco to do.
  • "Ghost of the General Lee" is full of heartwarming examples. Enos jumps into the pond to save them and is saddened to only find Bo and Luke's clothes, and wants Rosco to come in and help and Rosco can't as he is unable to swim. Rosco P. Coltrane is deeply saddened to hear of the so-called passing of Bo and Luke Duke. He stated he enjoyed the police chases and usually just let them get away. Uncle Jesse's reaction is that of sadness when he thought Bo and Luke were dead.
  • "Enos and Daisy's Wedding" sees Daisy decide to marry Enos to stop herself being forced to testify against him when he's framed for a bank robbery (a wife can't legally be made to testify against her husband). And even after he's proven innocent, she still wants to go through with the wedding to stop him figuring out the original reason for her decision and being hurt.
