I'm watching the show!I lived in Danville growing up and it's interesting to see the old stomping grounds.I'm visiting for Christmas and the agent went to school with my son-in-law.They say there are only 2 episodes left and I think Tim and Tickle will get busted before the show ends.Does anyone remember when Buddy Arrington got busted and then he was the Grand Marshall of the Martinsville Christmas Parade?
