    According to the Wikipedia bio, Werner Klemperer was also a very accomplished musician -- violinist, concert pianist and operatic baritone. He came from a musical family. His mother was an operatic soprano and of course his father was the famous conductor Otto Klemperer. I guess he (Werner) most enjoyed acting.

    • @loge10

      I agree with all but the operatic baritone. He did work in opera but they tended to be non-singing parts. I actually did a production with him in Seattle in the early 80s of Die Fledermaus and he performed his role (Count Orlovsky) has Rex Harrison did his in My Fair Lady. Needless to say it was a wild production and included Buddy Hackett and Paul Sorvino (about 8 years before Good Fellas).

    A very humble and charitable man, who makes most of today's actors" seem rather pathetic. I agree, he was the star of the show; he had most of the dialog or at least as much as Bob Crane. It seems to me that folks back then were very much into the craft of being a performer and not necessarily so much into being famous. Thanks much for the upload.

    Ivan actually left the show in 1970 after the 5th season because at that time he felt there was nowhere else for Kinch to go. HH was supposed to have gone on until at least 1972 but the 1-2 punch known as the rural purge and the Primetime Access Rule put paid to plans for a 7th season.

    I thought it was very classy of him to mention all the other co stars in the way he did. And although he was deserving of the award, it's hard to imagine John Banner not winning the same award because anyone who has seen Hogan's Heroes would probably agree that Sgt. Schultz was easily as important and good a character as Klink was.

    I believe Dixon had left the show by '69. He was replaced by Kenneth Washington. It was a tumultuous time and EVERYTHING seemed to have a political undercurrent to it. Dixon later regretted leaving the show. Kinch was a very positive black character who was an ammunition and espionage master, when their weren't too many blacks on TV AT ALL. Thanks for Ivan Dixon heads up.

    • @robertgoines2855
      @robertgoines2855 5 лет назад

      He didn't. Hogans Heroes ran for 6 years. Ivan Dixon was in every season except the last which I believe was 1971 so nah whoever trying to make excuses for WK should probably try a different argument then Ivan Dixon might have already left the show. Look i grew up during the 60s + 70's + the racial animus towards black people was still in a fever pitch. So maybe WK just a product of the times even after what he witnessed in Nazi Germany against himself + his people. But hell you had slave owners who couldn't stand black people but were raping black women every chance they got. Not gonna lie it was a little disappointing to hear him leave out the 1 black guy but named every other character, even the secretary

Sergeant Kinchloe ended up dying in Col. Hogan's arms. Kenneth Washington was a new arrival at Stalag 13 in that episode, and took over Dixon's spot in the cast of the series.
