HOGAN'S HEROES 💥 THEN AND NOW 2021

John Banner and Werner Klemperer had some of the best lines ever written for the show and their acting was just spot on brilliant.

John Banner, was a big old lovable German Shepherd.

[@troysmoliak4924]

Rest in peace to all those wonderful actors that made Hogan's Heroes probably one of the best shows of all time it's honestly nice to watch the old episodes still on MeTV it doesn't really matter how many times I've seen the same episode I still get a big kick out of it cuz that's how funny the show really is still to this day?

All Schultz wanted to do was to navigate the war alive and avoid being sent to the Russian front. He had a live and let live attitude and basically had a good heart. John Banner played that character brilliantly

Schultz was my favorite character. So glad he will live forever in reruns.

The fact that Otto Klemperer wasn’t just glossed over, and even his image appeared, is a credit to your narrative’s integrity. I know it’s not terribly popular to talk about orchestral conductors in the context of popular television shows, but Otto Klemperer remains so iconic to every orchestral music lover, he is still more popular within this world today, than his wonderfully talented son is.

I am from Germany and I love it so mutch. In Germany the translation was often not the same text as in the USA. Many things was different. Klink often mentioned his housekeeper Mrs Kalinke for example. Only later did I find out that this did not even occur in the original. Each of the actors also spoke in a different dialect.

[@RichardDCook]

I have read that the German dubbing was well-written and very funny. Did they retain John Banner's Austrian accent? He was a native German speaker from Austria.

[@nosoupforyou425]

Was a fan during its airing. Loved all 6 seasons and was saddened when it ended. Shultz is by far my favorite, just think he stole every scene he was in. That lovable frenchy was a close second. Hell, I loved them all !!!!

[@launcesmechanist9578]

Schultz also stole the spotlight from Bob Crane during an 'I Love Lucy' episode where after Crane and Lucy duck after an explosion, there's Schultz standing in the doorway, covered in plaster and Crane blurts out: Oh no, Schultz! You're in the wrong war!

I had the honor and privilege of running into Robert Clary at a restaurant in Phoenix, Arizona. We chatted for a few minutes about Hogan’s Heros and about his artwork. Robert and his party got up and left the restaurant. But to my surprise, Robert came back into the restaurant with a copy of his book. He sat next to me and autographed it with an inscription.

@@csnide6702 Apparently it was a challenge for him but he developed close friendships with other Jewish actors John Banner (Schultz) and Leon Askin (Burkhalter) and once quipped 'Who could play Nazis (and embarrass them) better than Jews? We saw everything.' Banner, it is worth noting, publicly defended his character saying that Schultz was the embodiment of those Germans who never embraced the Nazis and resisted their evil, instead remaining good and helping the Resistance, Jews, and the Allies whenever possible. In a show of support for Robert Clary, Banner also wore long sleeve shirts throughout the series as he had also lost his entire family to the Holocaust and Leon Askin lost his parents after he was sent to America.

[@brianmorris8045]

@@csnide6702Another thing, Clary died on the 16th November, this year, 2022. The thing that might have helped Clary, was the majority of the cast were Jewish. It was one of the best jokes played anyone who hated Jews, yet they, the haters, liked the show not knowing of the Jews in the cast. To me that was wonderful. Had to be one of the best shows in the 60's. Along with Star Trek, and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Sadly there is not many shows made anymore of the quality of those 60's shows.

They certainly were and as we sit here today , October 14th, 2021 ...only 2 remain. Robert Clary of course ...but also an actor many forget was on the show. Kenneth Washington, who replaced Ivan Dixon after he quit the series. He played Richard Baker who basically did the same job as Kinch. That fact is probably one of the biggest reasons the show ended in that final 1970 - 1971 season. Still, a finale would have been nice. Washington went on to be in the cast of the police drama "Adam 12".
