Comedy, Adventure, Action
USA  /  English

In a prequel to the original TV series, we meet Bo, Luke, and Daisy Duke (Jonathan Bennett, Randy Wayne, and April Scott) as teenagers. Bo and Luke have been in legal trouble back home and are exiled to live with moonshiner Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson) as their parole. Daisy, lusting after a bartender Hughie(Todd Grinnell) , creates the “daisy dukes” and gains a job as a waitress. Meanwhile, Boss Hogg (Chris McDonald) is envious of Jesse’s fine still and declares Hazzard County dry with a $25,000 reward for uncovering a bootlegging operation. He’s already blackmailed Uncle Jesse who must try to sell enough “shine” to pay him off or lose his home. The “General Lee” is created to be a vehicle fast enough to make the deliveries to sell the hootch. Hughie turns out to be Boss Hogg’s nephew and uses secrets she tells him to have Jesse arrested. The young Dukes learn of this and turn the tables and catch Hughie selling moonshine, get the reward, and buy back Uncle Jesse’s farm. The uncle is freed, but Hogg ends up being elected County Commissioner and pardons himself for all his crimes.
