Stifler is not a good ol' boy
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_pictures/4744801.stm
John Schneider and Tom Wopat -- the good ol' boys of Hazzard. My sister and
I used to fight over who had dibs on whom. (I always ended up with Tom
Wopat, since Erin had seniority, but that was fine with me!)
We loved the Dukes growing up. I still love it. Don't get me wrong, I'm
not suggesting the original series was some masterpiece of fine plots and
flawless writing and brilliant acting. (Tires squealing on dirt roads?)
But at least the actors projected some sense of intelligence. Good ol' Luke
Duke, for one, always had his head on straight. So did Uncle Jesse, and
even Daisy had more wits than her short-shorts suggested.
The new movie just looks... stupid. (Oh, and is anyone else disturbed by
Jessica Simpson and Willie Nelson cozying up in her new "These Boots are
Made for Walkin'" video? Ew.) And as I heard a female radio DJ comment
this morning, "The Duke boys were always hot. Stifler and the Jackass guy
are just...not hot."
At least the General Lee is still hot.
Ben "Cooter" Jones and calls the movie a "sleazy insult" and calls for fans
to boycott it.

I'm with Cooter -- I think I'll stick to the reruns.

You know, even the woman playing the role of Daisy is not hot. The original actress was extremely beautiful.
The original Daisy (Catherine Bach) was in town recently for a car show and a Daisy Duke-lookalike contest was held. Catherine Bach was the judge. I thought briefly about entering but I didn't think the prize (a few hundred dollars) would be worth the effort of making myself up, coifing my hair, and strutting around in high heels and short-shorts. (Although The Boyfriend expressed some interest in the idea.) I've never been much of a strutter anyway...
