==Legacy and influence in popular culture==
===Hazzard County===
In 2005, the [[Humana Festival of New American Plays]] premiered a full-length comedy drama entitled ''[[Hazzard County (play)|Hazzard County]]'' by [[Allison Moore]]. The story centers on a young widowed mother and a visit that she receives from a big city television producer. Interspersed with recollections of Bo, Luke, and Daisy, the play takes a deep look at Southern "good ol' boy" culture and its popularization through the lens of American mass media.

===Smallville===
Tom Wopat and John Schneider were reunited in 2005 during "Exposed", a [[Smallville season 5|fifth-season]] episode of the television series ''[[Smallville]]''.<ref name="smallville">{{cite episode |title=Exposed |series=Smallville |series-link=Smallville |credits=Kelly Souders & [[Brian Wayne Peterson|Brian Peterson]] (writers); [[Jeannot Szwarc]] (director) |network=[[The WB]] |airdate=November 3, 2005 |season=5 |number=6}}</ref> Wopat guest-starred as [[Kansas Senate|Kansas State Senator]] Jack Jennings, an old friend of [[Clark Kent (Smallville)|Clark Kent]]'s adoptive father [[Characters of Smallville#Jonathan Kent|Jonathan Kent]] (portrayed by Schneider).

After the 2015 [[Charleston church shooting]], renewed debate about the symbolism of the [[Confederate battle flag]] (which was prominently featured on the ''General Lee''{{'}}s roof, and the panel behind the rear window in the first five episodes) prompted [[TV Land]] to pull reruns of the original series.<ref name="amazon_considers_fox">{{Cite web |url=https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/amazon-considers-removing-dukes-of-hazzard-racial-tensions |title=Amazon considers removing 'Dukes of Hazzard' from its streaming library over Confederate flag: report |website=[[Fox News]] |date=June 12, 2020 |access-date=July 11, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200630012515/https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/amazon-considers-removing-dukes-of-hazzard-racial-tensions |archive-date=June 30, 2020 |url-status=live }}</ref> Warner Bros., which owns the property, announced it would also no longer create merchandise bearing the flag, including miniatures of the ''General Lee''.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/tv/2015/07/01/confederate-flag-gets-dukes-of-hazzard-yanked-from-tv-land/29571785/ |title=Confederate flag gets 'Dukes of Hazzard' yanked |date=July 1, 2015 |work=USA Today |access-date=September 15, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170711192544/https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/tv/2015/07/01/confederate-flag-gets-dukes-of-hazzard-yanked-from-tv-land/29571785/ |archive-date=July 11, 2017 |url-status=live }}</ref> During the 2020 [[George Floyd protests]], Amazon reportedly considered removing the program from its streaming service.<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-06-12/amazon-considers-pulling-dukes-of-hazzard-from-video-service |title=Amazon Considers Pulling 'Dukes of Hazzard' From Video Service |newspaper=Bloomberg.com |date=June 12, 2020 |access-date=July 11, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200705165543/https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-06-12/amazon-considers-pulling-dukes-of-hazzard-from-video-service |archive-date=July 5, 2020 |url-status=live }}</ref>
