R.I.P. James Best

The actor James Best died Monday at the age of 88.  While he had many appearances on several shows in the 1960's and 1970's, he is most well-known for his character Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane on TV's "The Dukes of Hazzard."

He was easily one of the most entertaining TV characters during my childhood, and to this day his bumbling portrayal of Roscoe telling someone to "hush" never fails to make me smile.  

I hope he and his trusty dog "Flash" are together again and resting easy.
