Title: James Best 88, (Sheriff Rosco of Dukes of Hazard)
Post by: richb on April 07, 2015, 07:43:04 PM

One of my favorite actors when I was a kid,  James Best passed at 88 after a short illness.   Best known for playing crooked, but still likable Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane.   Dukes of Hazard is still one of my favorite TV shows.  RIP Mr. Best.

I have to confess I have no idea who this fella is. I never watched a single episode of "Dukes". Not because I consciously chose not to - just never did.

Rest in peace.  ::praying::

RIP James Best. He made many a character in yesterday's western TV programming. You'll find him when you least expect.
