I'm so glad this interview is on YouTube. Hogan's Heroes is one of my all-time favorite comedies. I've watched each episode countless times and will continue to watch it countless more times! RIP Colonel Klink.
I must admit I never watched Sajak's talk show, but after seeing this he would have been a much better replacement for Johnny Carson than the classless Leno!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had not seen this interview before... what a terrific guy... I also remember him from Judgment at Nuremberg. He gave me many moments of laugh with his role as Col. Klink... thank you Mr. Klemperer
Werner Klemperer was such as great actor as I remember him from Hogan's Heroes, he was great in the way that he acted and he was very funny and charming. RIP Werner, he will be missed by many.
Mr. Klemplerer was a very inteligent and talanted man. Tho I never new him by all accounts was a very gracious and kind person. A true gentelman and the world is richer for his time on earth. RIP Her Klemperer.
Facts: Robert Clarey that played LeBeau in Hogans Heros was in WWII and was a Jewish person, he had a serial number on his left arm written on him with a pin by a Gestapo colonal and that is the reason he had long sleeve jumpers on at all time and Werner Klemplerer a.k.a Colonal Klink and Leon Askin a.k.a General Burkhalter were all Jews Germans that flead to England at the start of WWII, the show was originally going to take place in a Consentration camp but because of that they changed it
he went though alot of bad stuff in his early years fled Germany before all hell broke loose and he joined the US Army Special Services unit during ww2 great actor and a great man
I wonder if they modelled Mr Burns off Colonel Klink, i wish Hogans Heroes could have gone from 6 seasons to 60 seasons, through and after the war if necessary. It would have been great that at the end of the war Klink finaly got his promotion to General.

I have always admired Werner Klemperer. I enjoyed watching him on TV and in movies and as an opera singer/conductor myself, getting to know his father Otto Klemperer's work as a conductor has been a very important part of my development. I was lucky to have had the opportunity of seeing my first opera, Strauss' "Ariadne auf Naxos," in a concert performance by the Philadelphia Orchestra, with none other than Werner Klemperer in the spoken role of the Majordomo. Needless to say, he stole the show.
@CambotSOL You are correct - His father was Otto Klemperer, one of the greatest conductors of all time and a personal friend and assistant to the great composer Gustav Mahler
He was a gentleman. He agreed to play Col. Klink only if Klink would be a bumbling klutz who lost to Hogan all the time. He also had a very good supporting role as a Nazi in "Judgment at Nuremberg." There, he again showed Nazism as wicked but in a serious dramatic way.
Rest in peace, Werner. Nobody can play Col. Klink the way he did. I hope they never make a modern movie of Hogan's Heroes like they did for Get Smart, because you just can't replace people like Werner Klemperer and John Banner. Rest in peace you awesome guys!
I loved Hogan's Heroes when I was little, they showed reruns of it here in Norway in the 1990s and it was probably my favorite show as a kid! RIP Werner Klemperer
Most of the cast from Hogan's Heroes are dead now. But I was able to write to both Leon Askin (Gen. Burkhalter) and Larry Hovis (Carter) before their deaths. I received autographed pictures and nice letters from both of them. Both were class acts as I'm sure Werner Klemperer was too.
had sex with a Yak and isnt ashamed to admit it. The yak on the other hand was enbarassed and commited suicide after admitting doing the nasty with such a lower life form as babist. Babist kept the videotape... the nasty bastard.... still watches it....
If you want to see how great an actor this man was, find a copy of the movie "Get Eichmann!". Herr Klemperer played Eichmann. He was brilliant in that role.
Pat Sajak's...."Indian Givers" quote.....lol wow .....it probably didn't even cause a stir back then, unlike today were he'd be on Larry King explaining why he used the term and that he is in fact not a racist lol......still any way you look at it ...its a lame quote...especially considering that Klemperer seems like such a classy type guy.
What a great interview! He looks fantastic for around 70 years (1989 or 1990 here).
"I'm slightly manic." he says. His father, the famous conductor, had bipolar disorder. I always wondered if Werner had it too, since it is hereditary.
All the guy's on this show Hogans Hero's were legends in their own time... amazing group.. Just Like the crew Of star trek.. Just incredable group....
Werner Kemperer was great! May he rest in peace. I can't believe that Pat Sajak used the term "Indian giver" at the end of the interview...sorry, but not appropriate.
rip werner.. u bought joy in my childhood,, i couldnt wait to get home from school to watch hogans heroes.. those where the days i will always remember....
@imperatorcaesar100 So there was no final episode then - it just stopped as "Gilligan's Island" did? Pity they didn't make a movie for final closure as Gilligan did.
@RipCurlRR lol too right mate! the show was so insanely clever and funny, all of the characters were hilarious instead of these new shows where maybe 1 or 2 characters are funny or at least try to be.
id love to see an interview with Banner/Schultz :)
I hope since you made this comment you have seen the Universal airs FIVE shows in HD every friday, twice a day. My wife and I have been enjoying these episodes for months now with no repeates... Gorgeous widescreen HD.
I will trust that wasn't sarcasm... Universal airs FIVE episodes of Hogan's Heroes in HD every friday, in the morning, then repeats the five in the afternoon. To this point, we have seen perhaps 100 different episodes, most in glorious HD...
@nicnacnic It wasn't, and thanks for answering honestly. I was wondering if The Pat Sajak Show still aired. Ah, well. Hogan's Heroes will suffice just fine! :-)

Sadly, the era of great TV is over. Man, that stinks!! Hogan's Heroes, Bonanza, Little House, etc. most of today's TV shows are dark and evil. I however, do like Walker Texas Ranger and the Law&Order series. There's still good stuff, ya just gotta look for it.
Klempener was the one who really made Hogan's Heroes successful. He was the most intelligent and talented of any of the cast members, but insisted that his character, Col. Wilhelm Klink, be a buffoon who would always end up looking like an idiot in order to make the show a smash hit!
One little known fact. After Bob Crane met with his tragic death, fellow Hogan's Heroes actor Robert Clary (Louie LeBeau) was a prime suspect. Klempener was the lawyer, and who served as Clary's defense.
I had always suspected Major Hochstetter and the gestapo being involved in Bob Crane's murder. They certainly had the motive being that he made them look like fools consistently when he was a prisoiner at LuftStalag 13.
Wow...who knew that Col Klink suffered from obsessive compulsive behavoir? I hope he found his original monocle before he died. The late great Mr Klemperer was such a gifted talent. Thanks a bunch for posting this very entertaining & informative clip! :)
I love Colin Mochrie's impressions of Klink. And he's a man worth impersonating. He did a very good job in his role.
This is actually an extra on the Season 2 DVD set--the only season with bonus features, sadly enough. Robert Clary and Sigrid Valdis even did audio commentaries for two of the episodes.
Werner comes across in this clip as an incredibly NICE GUY !! He has real charisma .. he's the kind of guy you'd love to be introduced to at a party .. to engage in discussion for some time .. and to attempt to develop an endearing friendship with. In this increasingly negative, declining, deteriorating modern-day world in which we are forced to survive these days, including the people in it - many, many people can take their lead in terms of their demeanor & their 'pleasantness', from him.
Sad truth is if he told a doctor that same story about how everything in his dressing room has to be the same and never changed, etc, the doctor would tell him "Oh, well you have autism then."
A style of television...WITH STYLE. Hogan's Heroes was indeed great TV. It was "escape-ism"! Fun, imaginative. Nothing on these days but depressing junk. Thank God that era was saved to be viewed over & over again.
the show was what run from 1989 to 1990 the man would have been 69 years old or 70. Ten or so years before his death- it was a good show. .. .I think Banner was a refugee/ if I remember from the Nazis in WWII . .. .

Thanks for posting, I've been a fan of Werners since Judgment at Nuremburg. He played a small part but he was great.

Wow...who knew that Col Klink suffered from obsessive compulsive behavoir? I hope he found his original monocle before he died. The late great Mr Klemperer was such a gifted talent. Thanks a bunch for posting this very entertaining & informative clip! :)

Col. (Oberst) Klink Rulez! What a great Comedy Serie this is. Even in our times, today! Love it so much :-)

Werner got out of Germany because he was Jewish. John Banner and Robert Cleary lost family in concentration camps.

I love Colin Mochrie's impressions of Klink. And he's a man worth impersonating. He did a very good job in his role.
This is actually an extra on the Season 2 DVD set--the only season with bonus features, sadly enough. Robert Clary and Sigrid Valdis even did audio commentaries for two of the episodes.

What a first class gentleman Warner Klemperer was. Made so many of us laugh. God rest his warm hearted soul.

LOL! I doubt Dawson's a pickpocket in real life. But then, you never know.

Werner comes across in this clip as an incredibly NICE GUY !! He has real charisma .. he's the kind of guy you'd love to be introduced to at a party .. to engage in discussion for some time .. and to attempt to develop an endearing friendship with. In this increasingly negative, declining, deteriorating modern-day world in which we are forced to survive these days, including the people in it - many, many people can take their lead in terms of their demeanor & their 'pleasantness', from him.

I can believe that someone stole his monacle. Maybe someone has it for sale on Ebay. Whoever stole that should be so ashamed of themselves.

Sad truth is if he told a doctor that same story about how everything in his dressing room has to be the same and never changed, etc, the doctor would tell him "Oh, well you have autism then."

A style of television...WITH STYLE. Hogan's Heroes was indeed great TV. It was "escape-ism"! Fun, imaginative. Nothing on these days but depressing junk. Thank God that era was saved to be viewed over & over again.

the show was what run from 1989 to 1990 the man would have been 69 years old or 70. Ten or so years before his death- it was a good show. .. .I think Banner was a refugee/ if I remember from the Nazis in WWII . .. .
