The inmates of a German World War II Prisoners of War camp conduct an espionage and sabotage campaign right under the noses of their warders. While the enemy is often gullible, easily fooled or downright incompetent - the real strength of Hogan's men are the elaborate ruses and sometimes dangerous lengths they will go to complete their mission.System Requirements: Running Time 882 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE
 


Editor's Note

Despite a historically and morally questionable premise, the 1960s sitcom HOGAN'S HEROES was wildly popular during its premiere run and continues to remain one of the most classic (not to mention utterly unique) comedy series in television history. Set in a Nazi prison camp during World War II, the series follows a group of Allied POWs--Englishman Peter Newkirk (a pre-FAMILY FEUD Richard Dawson), Frenchman Louis LeBeau (Robert Clary), and Americans Andrew Carter (Larry Hovis) and James Kinchloe (Ivan Dixon, one of the first African-American actors to get equal billing)--led by the irrepressible Colonel Robert Hogan (Bob Crane) in their hilarious attempts to sabotage the Nazi war effort. Though often mischaracterized as a tasteless gloss on the real-life horrors of Nazi Germany (the series was set in a prisoner-of-war camp, rather than concentration camp), HOGAN'S HEROES was intended as parody and certainly pulled no punches in its unflattering depiction of idiotic Nazi officers such as the pompous Colonel Klink (Werner Klemperer), bumbling Sergeant Schultz (John Banner), and irascible General Burkhalter (Leon Askin)--in fact, Klemperer, Banner, and Askin were all Jewish, and Clary was a Holocaust survivor. This collection includes all 32 episodes of the controversial series' debut season, which was nominated for two Emmy Awards.

"The late Crane's Colonel Hogan is plenty winning and John Banner's Sergeant Shultz a guilty pleasure." 03/18/2005 p.53

5 of 5 A great way to start laughing! Tuesday, September 25, 2007
cbarrows77 from West Chester, Ohio 45069  

This show may have been filmed when color TV was a new thing, but my kids routinely laugh their heads off. If MY kids think it's funny (an old show like this!!)yours will die of laughter over Hogan's crews antics and silliness of the German guards. Lots of good comedy to lighten up serious times. Laughter is good medicine, just watch that you don't overdose on it!It's never quite clear who runs the stalag camp, but I'm sure it's not the Germans. There's good action,danger, fighting, and bungling on both sides just to blow up some factories,keeping away the gestapo,confusing the German war machine. And the beautiful Frau Hilda, waiting for some American colonel to come along and save her. The plots and stories are good as the heroes struggle to fight the war while prisoners of war. They're just as dedicated to making you laugh as they are to beat the Germans.

5 of 5 The best comedy show of all time!!! Hogans Heroes Tuesday, July 18, 2006
Seth from Rocky Face, GA  
I loved this season because it’s what started it all. I bought some of the tapes years ago, then they disappeared. One day I was watching TV and I saw a commercial about the release of the first season of Hogan’s Heroes on DVD, I just had to buy it, so I did! It was one of the best purchases I ever made!! It’s full of laughs! You should get this as soon as you can! You won't regret it.
