K&F Update:
Corndog is back....so it's time for a re-run! This is a re-broadcast of Episode 145's amazing breakdown of the TWO General Lee's used in the 1992 Mel Gibson movie titled "Forever Young." We are confident that the "soundstage" car is still missing!

Forever Young
K&F Movie Summary from Episode 145: This is a full review of the 1992 Mel Gibson movie, Forever Young. This is the one where Mel is a test pilot in 1939, gets cryogenically frozen for a year to avoid the pain watching his girlfriend die in a hospital slowly, and then waked up over 50 years later to find out he was abandoned by everyone he knew and loved. Only he wasn't.....and if you love history, romance, flying, and Chargers you'll absolutely love this movie. The audio alone is with your time. Yes....we believe the last "Sound Stage" General Lee is the car in this movie, and yes, that's the primary reason we reviewed it. However, this movie gets a Perfect 10 from ALL OF US for just being a great, fun, enjoyable story to watch and enjoy!
OK....with that said, the deep dive on the Chargers in this film is somewhat exhaustive and definitely sickening. We can absolutely say FOR SURE that there were two Generals used in the movie, as documented in the episode. Remember, Warner Brothers kept the "Sound-Stage" car as well as one Hero car. The Sound Stage car was a '68 Charger faked to look like a '69 (grille and taillight changes), and the Hero car was a '69. We feel pretty certain that the '68 was used for the bulk of the movie....except for two interior scenes.
Remember these words: DOME LIGHT.

Classic Dukes Review: S2E23
"Southern Comfurts"
K&F Dukes Summary: All that you need to know about this episode is two things. First, we are going to get to the bottom of what a second cousin twice removed is, because on the Dukes in Season 2 that seems to be the clear sailing point for everyone wanting to hook up with everyone. Second, this is the episode with the green General Lee in it. And after a deep drive on this episode I think we can all conclude that the only reason the General is green in this episode is......(insert made up reason here). Anyway, the dukes 2nd cousins get rich and sell their land for a fortune, thanks for Jesse’s shrewd negotiating. To thank him they bring presents to Hazzard before starting on their way to a new life. In the midst though, the money gets stolen and the General lee gets painted green. Kinda dumb, yet kinda fantastic. The end.
