At one point, you can see the hat the unknown driver wears turns to the hat worn by Rosco, as you can see the brim. Later, it's revealed that the unknown driver was Cooter.

Return of the Ridge Raiders - S2-E20
Continuity mistake: The boys are driving along an open dirt road, being chased by the Sheriff. As they meet a blue car, they wave, and you notice that there are no bushes anywhere to be seen. When the blue car meets the cop cars, there are suddenly bushes on either side of the road, poorly disguising ramps used to flip the cop cars.

Audio problem: When Bo and Luke come up behind the visitor in the blue car, Bo honks the horn and waves. When he does, only the last part of "Dixie" plays when the camera is on him. Then the camera cuts to her, and only the last three notes play about two or three seconds later.

Continuity mistake: When in town, the boys see Enos coming out of the courthouse. They go to get out to get Granny Annie, you see Bo in the driver's side.

Audio problem: In the Boar's Nest, when the Oak Ridge Boys are singing, you hear a familiar "Yeee-haw!" This is from Bo, and you hear it now and again, even when you see Bo in a close up, and his mouth doesn't move.

The Dukes of Hazzard (1979)
Continuity mistake: When the Dukes meet up with BB, they come from a side road onto the main road. When the shot goes in to a close up on BB, you don't see a side road. And half the time, you don't see any dust kicked up by the opposing vehicles.

Audio problem: Any time that the cars are squealing tires, there is an appropriate sound. However, every time they are sliding in dirt, there is the same sound. Unless there is asphalt or concrete under the dirt, there couldn't be any squealing sound.

The Dukes of Hazzard (1979)
Continuity mistake: The General Lee is a souped up Dodge Charger, often called a "stock car". As such, it has roll bars mounted inside. Every so often, you see no roll bars in it, meaning that there was more than one General Lee used in the series.

Revealing mistake: Toward the beginning, when the Dukes meet the Texans, when the Texans toss up shot glasses to shoot, you see a white wire attached to one of them, probably to bust the glass on cue.

Revealing mistake: In the driver closeup shots, look at the backgrounds. A lot of the time, it shows the vehicle making turns, and the driver doesn't match the motion. Also, there are a lot of closeups where you see blue screen instead of scenery, or they go from city to country in a moment.
