@@cupcakequeen0617John Banner said of his character, 'Schultz is not a nazi. He's there because he has to be and for no other reason, in fact, I see Schultz as an example of the good you find in every generation.'
I remember seeing this as a kid, haven’t seen it in forty something years. What great acting, all three of them. Don’t see how they could keep a straight face. “Ohhhh, it’s a button, it says “Us” hilarious. Excellent writing
I think part of why John Banner was so good at being a bad sergeant is because he knew what a real one looked like. Banner fled to America at the beginning of the war but when the US joined, he enlisted. Being a foreign national he rode a desk state side, but he discharged as a supply sergeant. The US typically didn't let foreign nationals fight, especially those from countries like Austria for fear of spies, but that didn't stop people like John Banner from contributing.
Howard Caine who played Maj. Hochstetter was born in Tennessee and was an award wining bluegrass banjo-fiddle player in real life and mastered many American as well as foreign accents in english.
A massive talent. It's almost unbelievable that Hogan's Heroes had so many top-flight actors as regulars. Banner, Klemperer, Askin, Caine, Crane, Hovis, Clary, Talbot, et al.
All of the major hochstetter episodes I've always been my favorite. Those three actors was so talented and each one so funny in their own ways! I wish they could have made at least 10 more seasons
I ran a role playing game set in WW 2 using the GURPS system and during one of the missions, a German guard got his backside handed to him by one of the characters. She was a nurse, among other things, who was trained in hand to hand combat. As they were getting away they heard a suspicious voice yelling "A NURSE? YOU VERE BEATEN UP BY A NURSE???" The group broke up as they realized it was me imitating Hochstetter. Great character, and added a classic moment to the game.
Hogans Hero's was one of my favorite after school shows as a kid in the 70's. I used to find old WW2 clandestine radio plans in books at the library and build them because of this show.
Klink said in an episode the men in his family lived to 80, and that's how long Klemperer lived, ironically. Burkhalter (Leon Askin) lived to age 97. And as of late 2018, LeBeau (Robert Clary) has made it to 92.
I wonder if Howard Caine watched a lot of Looney Tunes cartoons before playing Major Hockstetter. He played the character like a German Yosemite Sam! 😂😂😂😂
You called me sir? Why would anybody call you??!! Classic show, awesome cast and writers, directors on and on. These people made a show now legendary!!!
Two of my favorite lines from the show. Klink: Ah, General Burkhalter what an unexpected pleasure. Burkhalter: Unexpected yes, pleasure no. Klink: Ah, General Burkhalter, I have some wonderful news for you. Burkhalter: You've transferred to the navy?
Actually Sergeant Schultz was personal friend of the Kaiser and served with the Kaiser in World War I. And Sergeant Schultz's family for about a hundred generations or so I've been hand carving the finest toys in the world
Watch "War takes a holiday". There is a scene where Klink and Hochstetter have been duped into thinking the war is over and are told by Gen Bussey that it is not. That is the best scene I have ever seen. Tell me what you think.
@@antonioacevedo5200 That is a good scene, too. There are so many. When Schultz played Col. Klink and drives Hogan into another POW camp to pick up and bring back to Stalag 13 Newkirk, LeBeau and Carter, who were transferred. Schultz was hilarious. Or the scene where LeBeau is teaching dance lessons to Hochstetter in the jail cell and in walks General Burkhalter, who orders Hochstetter under house arrest.
@drolgh8 Yep! And it'd be followed by, "Anyone going OUT of my office will be shot! Anyone going INTO my office will be shot! Er, forget I said that last part."
Believe it or not Howard Caine was actually from a Jewish family,born and raised in Nashvillle,TN. (yes Nashville) and was a fantastic banjo player. On top of all that he was a damn good actor especially in this role.
@@DMS-pq8 Klemperer actually had it in his contract, at his own insistence, that he could leave the show if Klink and the Germans ever came out on top when dealing with Hogan.
My favorite episode with Hochstetter is when he's trying to decode the message from Nimrod in front of General Burkhalter and Newkirk comes in Klink's office to clean up, and makes up a phony message. Newkirk: "This looks like the ol' Wellington cipher. I'll have a crack at it. Of course, I'm not an expert like the Major." Burkhalter: "Don't be so sure..." LMAO
HIlarious episode. I always speculated that Hilda, the secretary, was Nimrod. She had access to Klink's files, phone, etc. She knew what the Allied prisoners were up to and supported them. The bomber plans were in her office when Hogan grabbed them in front of Hochstetter and Burkhalter and brought them back to the barracks. That's when Hogan found the note in the box directed to him from Nimrod. Howard Caine had to play Hochstetter somewhat out of character in that episode: he normally would have been the last guy on Earth to eat a wad of paper, but he played a bit of fool and cowered to Burkhalter in that episode.
Yes, it was a funny scene, but I can't say it was the "funniest scene ever" because there were so very many funny scenes! it may tie with the top 200 or 300 funny scenes! When Hogan's Heroes was originally on television I worked in a Ford truck assembly plant in Mahwah N.J.. My work partner on the assembly line was an ex-German soldier that we called "Ziggy", and he had fought with Germany in WW2. We would talk a lot during the day, just to pass the time. I remember him telling me that "It was nothing like Hogan's Heroes!" and "Hogan would have been shot in the very first episode." When I see Hogan's Heroes today, I sometimes remember Ziggy!
All the guys who were involved in The Great Escape said the same thing, they were careful and subtle... and 50 of them (including three of my countrymen) got shot for it with nothing too gain from it.
@@thepointmanonshade Actually Ford stands for For Outstanding Reliability Dude. Every Ford I've ever owned proved it. Want a Crappie vehicle? Try Chevy! Crap Heap Every Vicious Year! LMAO! 😂😂😂😂
All 3 of the actors in the scene are Jewish and of them John Banner was in Europe when the Nazi's annexed his homeland of Vienna, luckily he was in Paris when that happened and was able to escape to the States.
It would have been great to have a final episode where Allied forces liberate the camp, and Hogan shows Klink, Hochstetter and Burkhalter the hidden tunnels - and then helps them get to safety. And, of course, Schultz already knows about the tunnel, but played ignorant to the prisoners' schemes so as to keep in everyone's good graces.
i love Hochstetter when he says at various times on Hogans Heroes....' He will surround the camp with a ring of steel' and when he screams, 'What is this man doing here? Love it!
I believe I remember that as well. Didn't he also play a couple of other "minor" roles in the show before he became Maj. Hochstetter? On a different note: I also seem to remember is a verry early episode that Gen Birkhalter was a Colonel.
He also played Col.Feldkamp in episode where he battles a Wehrmacht General over using Stalag 13, and Stolen Staff Cars.Hogan and his men help out underground people being held by Feldkamp,they shoot floor and Feldkamp and his men fall down thinking they were shot.
Another funny part of this episode is the conversation Hogan's men have when Carter and Newkirk forget to set the timer and the bridge does not explode. Kinch: "You two are becoming the Laurel and Hardy of demolition teams."😄
just for the sake of accuracy major hochstetter has the wrong rank on his collar insignia, his shows to be a ss standartenführer which is the equivalent to a full Colonel, a SS major would be the 4 small silver squares on black, of the Sturmbannführer or major
@@lomax6620 and on the opening credits scene (of every episode) the German guard in front of Colonel Klink's office has a US Thompson submachine gun. It's whatever they had at the Culver City lot!!
I always wonder why the makers of the show would have Klink wearing the Iron Cross. It was normally an award given to men that exhibited bravery on the battle scene. Klink was not only an idiot, but he was an out and out COWARD of the greatest order.
I hope y’all will reply to this in 1982 I met Werner Klemperer he came to Houston and read the story Peter and the Wolf with the Houston Symphony Orchestra
I liked the episode where Hochstetter forced LeBeau to give him dancing lessons and Hogan arranged for Hochstetter to get in trouble with General Burkhalter. I wish I knew the title of that episode!
Hochstetters rank insignia ( one single silver oak leaf on both sides of collar patch) denotes the rank of SS-Standartenführer ( Colonel) not SS-SturmbannFührer who wears 4 silver pips only on the left collar patch and the SS Runes on the other. So he is a Standartenführer and not a SturmbannFührer.
Schultz's delivery of "it's a button and it says us" gets me every time.
Schultz is the cutest. 😊
@@cupcakequeen0617John Banner said of his character, 'Schultz is not a nazi. He's there because he has to be and for no other reason, in fact, I see Schultz as an example of the good you find in every generation.'
Priceless -- especially following the pevious exchange with Klink that infuriated Hochstetter :)
This is my favorite scene. Klink and Schultz are on the same dysfunctional wavelength and Hochstetter looks like he's gonna blow a gasket
More like blowing a few cylinders
😝😂🤣
When doesn't he?
Poor Hochstetter...lol.
"Stalag 13?! Nein!! I resign!!"

That's why the series worked so well, the actors were very good with each other, knowing how far to go.
Maj. Hochstetter was the most hilarious Jerry officer on the show, he was a hell of an actor.
Funniest after the 2 main German actors.
And a pretty good banjo picker.
Reminds me of Rizzo from Mash or his character in police academy!
IMO it's General Burkhalter instead....
Wow this scene is pure gold. The 3 actors really shine on this one.
Howard Caine who played Maj. Hochstetter was born in Tennessee and was an award wining bluegrass banjo-fiddle player in real life and mastered many American as well as foreign accents in english.
He played same of the music used in this series.
Interesting. I would never have pictured him as a musician.

“Why would anybody call you?!” The one time Klink and Hochstetter are on the same page lol!

ALL TIME FUNNIEST SHOWS....Werner Klemperer, Howard Caine, John Banner were all such EXCELLENT ACTORS AND THIS SHOW IS AN ALL TIME CLASSIC.....
Didn't it always make watching Hogan's Heroes more fun when Major Hochstetter or General Burkhalter showed up?
And they were only in nine episodes together. I wish that series would've run a few more years.
my favorite line in this scene by Major Hochstetter: "How can he watch the prisoners like a hawk, when he's as blind as a bat!"' lol!
Perfect acting, perfect dynamic. Without these guys show would have died after season one.
Throw Hogan and Burkhalter in there and you've got a group of men who play perfectly off each other.
I so wish they would have put the Hochstetter character in more episodes. He was hilarious.

So was the actor who played General Burkhalter, Klink's nasty superior.
Most Austrians would correct you, telling you there's more to Austria than just Vienna, but many people from Vienna would disagree to that.
@@trinitymplayers true. So was Lebo
When the American Tanks rolled into Stalag 13, Hogan may have requested leniency for the Major. Based on the fact they outwitted him every time.
Its also likely they’d ask their comrades to treat Klink and Schultz leniency as well.
It would have been great to have a final episode where Allied forces liberate the camp, and Hogan shows Klink, Hochstetter and Burkhalter the hidden tunnels - and then helps them get to safety.
