The Dukes of Hazard

Whoever came up with this title was a genius. The show itself was hit
and miss, probably should have just been cancelled after they tried to
replace Bo and Luke with the scab cousins Lo and Buke. In today's
television market, that's clearly what would have happened.

But back to the title: once you know anything about the show, the
titles says it all. Before that point, however, there is nothing at
all in the title that reveals anything about the show. It would be
equally as likely to be a sequel to "Tess of the Durbevilles" instead
of a show about a family of reformed moonshiners that own an awesome
car and solve crimes notwithstanding the crooked but hapless county
sheriff.

Sadly, they never had enough really silly episodes.
