    Good actor... hide show

    Sonny Shroyer is another one of my favorite Tv actors. As most people know him for his role on the Dukes of hazzard. He played Enos Strate the Clumsy deputy who was also honest. I think that he played that role really well. he was in a little bit of season three of the dukes then he left and did a spinoff called Enos. I guess that never did very well, but I have never seen it. I really liked it when he was in forest Gump, he played the football coach and when he saw forest running across the field he said "That must be one of the stupidest Son of a B-cth's I ever saw, But he sure can run fast". That is one of my favorite lines ever and it is pretty funny to. Hopefully we can see sonny in some show in the future. Later...
