- Hughie Hogg
Played by comedian
Jeff Altman , Hughie Hogg is afictional character on the Americantelevision series "The Dukes of Hazzard ".Hughie was
Boss Hogg 's equally crooked (maybe even more crooked) nephew. Hughie also wore an all-white suit, but unlike Boss Hogg had a slender build. A con man and a disguise artist, Hughie seemed to completely lack any moral compass while his "Uncle Boss" deep down had aconscience .Altman appeared as Hughie Hogg six times in the series. However, the episode that introduced the character, "Uncle Boss", despite being filmed two episodes into the second season, was not broadcast until the third season, by which time, Hughie had already been seen in his second appearance, as temporary sheriff in the second season episode "Arrest Jesse Duke". ("Uncle Boss" is noticeably out of sequence even to the more casual viewer as, besides Hughie's introduction despite him having been seen before, Enos is still the deputy despite having left for Los Angeles a few episodes before, and Daisy is still driving her yellow Plymouth Roadrunner that her cousins Bo and Luke had let run off a cliff the season before.)
