@@Boskov01Actually in their “What happened after” bit, he did, with Klink joining him as a business partner after serving a heavily reduced sentence due to testimony from the PoWs at Stalag 13. Schultz didn’t face any true sentence and was allowed to return to civilian life. I do recall it said Hogan went missing though, some believing he went after SS who had fled.
“And when that refinery is blown up, and it comes out that it was your idea …”. The writing on this series is second only to the superior role playing of the actors. What a great show!
Schultz "Knew nothing, and saw nothing"! It was his way of letting the Allies win the War! What better way to get out of trouble, then to pretend that he knew nothing, and saw nothing?!? It's the perfect out for an Ordinary Soldier, such as Sergeant Schultz!
Fun fact, if you were able to return to allied territory via an escape system such as "the underground" you would not have been returned to the same theater of operations. because if you were captured on a subsequent mission, you would know the routes and be a security risk if tourtured, and you would be tortured....
I think there was a line in Stalag 17 about that. You get away and say you make it home? Then what? They re-equip you, load you onto another bomber and you go down over the pacific. And that's if you're lucky. The Japs made the nazis look most humane next to their standards for treating POWs.
All the Germans were Jewish. Leon Askin's (General Burkhalter's) scar was real, given to him by the buttstroke of a guard at the concentration camp he was interred at.
Shultzy. Saw John in a war movie. 36 hours I think it was called. Portraying a guard on the Swiss Border. Similar to Shultz, except he extorted a toll from those wanting to flee Germany. He said to James Garner;” A German must make enough money during a war, to survive between them!” So true.
The security around the refinery is based on an actual refinery in Ploesti, Romania. Because it was a highly productive refinery, it was surrounded by dozens of AA guns, including a train with nothing but AA guns. The train track circled the refinery, so the train was able to defend an attack from any direction. The Allies lost dozens of planes and hundreds of men while trying to destroy it. With plenty of slave labor available it was quickly repaired after each raid and remained in operation until the Russians captured it, late in the war.
“...Even two over”😂 This channel is awesome! It’s the channel I’ve been looking for for a long time. I watch most of these shows, and I often just want to watch a quick clip for a laugh! Thank you for this! And thank you for keeping it clean! Really appreciate that!
Hi everybody, I only vaguely watch the show when my relative were watching it years ago…..l now I’m retired and I live to watch the show. The writing is fabulous. The characters are very well defined and I love all the. I love the MacGyver planning…… always against the Germans… they wouldn’t make this show today. We all know it.
Okay, my own head canon is that Schultz fought in the First World War, and the horror of it made him vow to never be a soldier again, but in WW2 he found a place where he could help the Allies as quietly as he could, but he didn't want to betray his own country. So he had to walk a fine line to do what's right. Haven't seen enough episodes to prove this, and I watched it sometimes back in the 70's, but I'm sure it's close to the actual plot. Any interviews with John Banner about his character?
It really sounds close enough, not a bad Theory. I actually met John Banner at I think it was the muscular dystrophy Telethon it is very nice and humble man Warner Klemperer was a card too,the man had a pretty astounding career in show business.
That makes a lot of sense, and what Schultz really wanted was for the war to end so he could get back to being a toymaker. He was no Nazi, just a good guy in a bad situation.
That's overthinking it a bit. Schultz was simply determined to survive the war and decided the best way to do that was to remain as uninvolved as he could possibly get. And after all the other shit he's seen and didn't report, he knows the prisoners have him over a barrel so he keeps his mouth shut. And since that also is remaining uninvolved in anything, that suits him. He also doesn't hate the prisoners and it's clear they don't hate him so likely he has trouble seeing them as enemies. And although he's a German patriot deep down he's also likely quite disturbed by the Nazi regime and let it spill once he's a closet monarchist: "Things were so much happier in Germany when we had an Emperor."
I could never figure out why the one and only tunnel out of camp was the "emergency tunnel". That term implies that there are other tunnels that get used under normal circumstances.
I think they called it the emergency tunnel because they have it in case they need to get out, but their overall plan is to stay in the camp to collect information on the German War effort. If they wanted to escape, they could, but they are getting more done from inside the camp. So, naturally, the escape tunnel only gets used in emergencies.
@@alecbrinker7268 Exactly. I always picture him at the end of the war. I imagine him walking up to Hogan and shaking his hand, and giving him a wink. Maybe even joking that since he's a heavy man, he was always careful not to walk over the tunnels.
@@alecbrinker7268While a number of people may have been playing dumb to help out, it's been suggested that Burkhalter or Hochstetter were more likely candidates for Nimrod because they moved around more and had access to more intel.
Timeless humor I have watched this over the years and it never dates I think the idea of a prison camp being run by the prisoners especially prisoners of war during the second world war a classic of course the stars make series and the comedy isn't just making fun of the war there were many stories in this series I say inspired by real events from real prisoners of the times and the series itself came from a movie and possibly other movies about the same theme? I definitely think this series should have a celebration or something how old is this series 50 years old or more? Without this show there would be no MASH and in that series a former star of the show appeared in MASH or more?
No… because he knows based on everything that’s already happened he would be sent to the Russian front… he would rather ignore all that’s going on than risk that… since you didn’t come back from the Russian front
John banner is an absolute legend
One of the best!
A fine actor, as Banner is always playing the fool.
@@jkrasney1 You didn't see him in "36 hours" did you?
Poor ol’ Schultz. He just wants to make toys.
Still a nazi
My headcanon likes to think that Schultz went back to making toys after the war and died at peace and happy.

@@hiddendesire3076 I don't see that Klink and Schultz had to serve any sentence. They were only doing their jobs at a P.O.W. camp.
@hiddendesire3076 Where is this "what happend after" bit? Is it part of the show?
“And when that refinery is blown up, and it comes out that it was your idea …”. The writing on this series is second only to the superior role playing of the actors. What a great show!
"I see no-thing!"
"I hear no-thing!"
"I know NO-THING!"
Very well put. 🖕
Wonderful storylines
"You really want to know what this is Schultz?"
Schultz: *No!*
I do love that part.
I must have watched each show over a dozen times and I continue watching them!! I feel so sad how most of their life’s ended 😢

Schultz is the best. He makes the show. Loveable & so funny. Didn’t realise he was Jewish as were so many of the cast.
All the Germans were Jewish. Leon Askin's (General Burkhalter's) scar was real, given to him by the buttstroke of a guard at the concentration camp he was interred at.
You might notice that LeBeau always wore long sleeves. That was to cover Robert Clary's concentration camp ID tattoo.
This series is truly a marvel. Each actor is magnificent in his role. And John Banner is just sheer delight. 😊
Schultz was such a sweet heart

I once saw Hogan's Heroes on German TV dubbed in German...even the German public liked it.
Only after they gave all characters funny accents! First run didn't take

Leave it to Beaver
Yeah I love this show as a kid. And from what I've seen I still like it

Lovable Schultz, he probably was the best actor on Hogan's Heroes too !.
Thanks for the laughs!🤣🤣🤣!!! Gotta rewatch the series!
The writing was just brilliant

John MADE the show. I know it would not been such a big hit without him. He was a riot!😅😊
Hold that Tiger:
"Guard coming!"
All right fellas knock it off."
"Ah it's only Schultz."
"Ok get back to work."
I'm gettin old, I remember when this episode was live.

There are fan theories that Schultz and Klink were Allied spies helping Hogan without Hogan knowing

And after all the other shit he's seen and didn't report, he knows the prisoners have him over a barrel so he keeps his mouth shut.

I always have thought that Schulz saw EVERYTHING. He did not agree with his country's politics, and intentionally played dumb.
I have always believed Schultz was Nimrod. It was an act and he was helping the operation without Hogan knowing it.

John Banner made Hogan's Heros.
And they were delicious!
Him & the Babes!

What’s That Episode From
It's Season 2, Episode 1. It's called, "Hogan Gives A Birthday Party." 🎂🙂
@@cleancomedyclips I Recorded That Episode Of Of Sundance TV

Schultz is Nimrod!
Maybe, alot of people say its Langenscheidt.
Klink is Nimrod
I humbly subscribe to the notion it is General Burkhalter. My brother is equally certain Nimrod is Hilda 😁
No… because he knows based on everything that’s already happened he would be sent to the Russian front… he would rather ignore all that’s going on than risk that… since you didn’t come back from the Russian front
That should read tiny mustache not time.
why did they never make an ending to this show
Hate to say it but Schultz almost looks like Hitler with the time mustache.
