Haven't herd either but I am going to the Smoky Mountain fan Fest in Sevierville TN July 18th-19th.
Takes a MOPAR to catch a mopar!

There is not going to be a dukes fest this year from what I have herd. The last one was down big time. With out CMT sponcership and the economy I think waiting would be the smartest thing to do!
69 440 RT matching.. mostly original!

The size of DF in the last several years was never sustainable in the long-term. 

Maybe something like that could have been sustained several more years if the new DOH movie series had been decent.  But not with the old TV series still being the only thing to draw upon.

Hell, even I've gotten pretty burned out on DOH this last 1-2 years.

-----------------------------------------



I think right now DOH finds itself in the same position as a lot of old franchises.  Still has fans and still could appeal, but it currently lacks a good enough incarnation of TV/movies to really run with it.

The entire DOH hobby isn't going anywhere.  Just scaling back a bit this year.  Taking a breather.

Sorry for the repetitive question, I sent it out before I read the rest of the posts. Do you have any idea what the times are for both Daisy (Katherine Bach) and Bo (John Schneider)? Thanks

I believe they will be there all three days pretty much all day.  The ones that are going to be there only on Sat and Sun are marked as such.  They do usually leave for lunch and what not.  I had to wait about 30 minutes for Adam West one time, we did catch Dirk Benedict eating a sandwich one time.  My buddy asked him if he was gonna eat the pickle...he started laughing and just about spit his food out.  They should be there for the hours listed on the site that the convention is open...

Hey , get me Banky Edwards and Holden McNeil's autograph while you're there.  :lol:
Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

Thanks, I am going to see if there is any way I can make it there one of the days.

Back from the comic con, John Schneider says no Dukes fest this year.  Last years wasn't too good I guess.  Everyone was really cool, especially Catherine Bach.  She let my kids sit in her jeep and talked to us for quite some time.  I will get some pics up soon..

Same with the MAD MAX hobby. hopefully this new movie they're making will revive things better than the DOH movies.
