* AbsenteeActor: James Best was in the midst of a mid-season walkout. Several critics panned this episode, which they thought had potential as it stood but was nowhere near as good as it could/should have been because Rosco was nowhere to be seen.

* BadCopIncompetentCop:
** Partially averted with Daisy. But even with her still being a rookie, she broke several rules in the jailbreak scene: 1. Never set your gun down to tend to an inmate who is in distress; 2. Call for backup; 3. Never fall for the old "sick" gag, one of the oldest tricks in the book. She makes up for it by her determination to capture the crooks, which Enos comes to admire.

* AbsenteeActor: James Best was in the midst of a mid-season walkout. Several critics panned this episode, which they thought had potential as it stood but fell down because Rosco was nowhere to be seen.
* BarBrawl: A big one as Bo and Luke, who come to the Boar's Nest to stop a large fight in progress, end up causing even more damage themselves. By the time the fight is over, the Duke boys have knocked at least a dozen men (no exaggeration) unconscious and thousands of dollars in damage to the bar/restaurant area.
