Cletus Hogg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Deputy Cletus Hogg was a fictional character featured in the American television series, The Dukes of Hazzard. He was played by Rick Hurst.
Cletus was Boss Hogg's dim-witted cousin and deputy sheriff of Hazzard County. Although generally friendly to the Dukes, he would usually gladly assist Boss Hogg and Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane in their unprovoked pursuit of the family, mainly Bo and Luke Duke. Each of the Hazzard County Sheriff's Department officers drove various Chrysler "B-body" patrol cars (1976 or 1977 Dodge Monaco, 1977 or 1978 Plymouth Fury).
Cletus regularly pursued the Duke boys in high speed car chases, which usually ended with Cletus landing in water, thus allowing the Dukes to evade the inept deputy.
The character of Cletus joined the cast of The Dukes of Hazzard as a regular when the character Deputy Enos Strate (played by Sonny Shroyer) left the show in 1980.
Cletus Hogg appeared regularly on the show from 1980 to 1983.
