"Well, you know, shows are a mystical thing at best, because you never know what's going to work and how things are going to click," Bach explained to Fox News Digital. "And you have to have a good writer. It can't just be writing on an idea."
Bach emphasized the importance of a strong script and execution before committing to a reunion. "You have to execute that idea. So, yeah, if everything comes together. Of course," she noted. "I'm still here, the guys are still here. It would be great, but I don't know."

"Dukes of Hazzard," which followed the adventures of the Duke boys in Hazzard County, aired from 1979 until 1985. The show's enduring popularity has kept fans eager for a revival.
Bach revealed that she still occasionally wears the classic denim shorts that her character made famous. "Only if you come to my house and watch me garden," Bach said with a laugh. "Or at the beach. I'll be honest, at the beach."

Bach's close relationship with her former co-stars was evident at Schneider's August 1 wedding to Sorvino. She joined the couple in celebrating their union.
Before landing the iconic role of Daisy Duke, Bach initially hesitated. "They've been looking for a year for that part," Bach recalled telling Fox News Digital in 2019. "I said, 'That's very nice of you to think of me, and I know you're doing this as a favor to my husband, but you don't have to.' I just didn't think I had a chance."

However, Bach's audition proved to be a pivotal moment. "After I did my reading during the audition, there was total silence," Bach said. "I thought, ‘Oh no, they didn’t like what I did.’ Then everyone, we’re talking about 30 people, got up and started clapping."
"They just connected with my vision of how this part should be played," Bach continued. "Two weeks later, I was on a plane to Georgia."
