I was lucky to meet Mr.Klemperer in NYC years ago.He was nothing like "Col.Klink"..he was a sweet,kindly,intelligent and caring man..(Crying)I still miss him.
@madahad9 Oh I think by that time Col. Klink had paid for his crimes and was a fully productive member of society, citizen. Batman on the hand, seems to have lost touch with reality. Word is he has migrated to a small town in Rhode Island where he claims to be the mayor.
It's quite unfortunate the appearance of Col.Kilnk and Lurch (from the Addams Family) prevents the series from being on DVD or Blu-ray nowadays, due to copyright issues.
Actually, they might be able to work it out, if not for the fact that Batman is underneath Warner Bros. and the TV series is owned by Fox.
@syafiqjabar Don't forget that the Batman character is owned by DC Comics as well! Another complication that traps Batman in one of the most tangled copyright issues preventing DVD release.
LOL...I got a kick out of this clip. And for all these fools so insulted by a "nazi" being on Batman, Werner Klemperer was not a real Nazi during WWII. And he and John Banner (Schultz) were actually much funnier than Hogan and his men, although I always found Larry Hovis (Carter) really funny too.
@Gunganfan Actually, he and Hogan made friends after the war and went into business in Gotham City. They became real estate moguls. And Klink was known for liking to get back into his Luftwaffe uniform while walking around the skyscrapers he and Hogan owned.
Klink was a Luftwaffe officer (German Air Force) and most of them, along most of the regular Wehrmacht (German Army) officers, never committed war crimes. That was mainly the purview of the Gestapo, SS, and members of the German High Command.
@IlliniDave68 Klink was never shown to commit war crimes on Hogan's Heroes anyway. War crimes were implied with Gestapo officers like Hochstetter. When they showed up there were insinuations and even threats of torture - and on occasion it was against Hogan himself.
@TheLastCurlbender Not when it comes to the fact that both Klink and Helstrom will probably be killed in a firefight when the Allies reach their camp's position or tried for war crimes and executed after the war is over and the Reich falls.
@cheeseshoes I meant the 1940's was only "20 years ago" back in the 1960s. We're about 2x away from Star Trek original air date than Star Trek was away from World War 2.
@zenzmurfy well yes thats obvious but you talked as if you were dumb enough to think that HH was real (I knew you weren't) or you didn't know the taping date. its just the way my brain processes text. some times i read too much into it or not enough.
@cheeseshoes I know I am stating the obvious, but it is so easy to think WW2 was ancient history(especially if you are young), but in the 1960's, it was only 20 years ago. I am in my forties and it didn't dawn on me until that clip that all that stuff I watched as a kid was only 20 years away from WW2. To contrast this, 20 years ago from the present, is 1991. The 1990's was the far future in the shows I watched as a kid and we're 20 years after that.
News Flash from the New York Post: Batman busts Col. Klink. Holy nazi war criminal Batam, Batam captures Col. Klink. While on mission to capture the Joker but got away due to interferance of the Col. Mad at this batman hunted him down with in few minutes after some POW BUFF on the Nazi Col. Klink has been wanted for war crimes including the excution of one of Hogan heros escapeese. Why was Klink in Gotham City? Rumours has he was meeting up with the Joker.
Seriously...FML, what in the name of God would a Nazi internment camp commander be doing in Gotham in the 60s EXCEPT evading war crimes courts and extradition!
They blew it. He should have said he was in town for a reunion. "Und guess what, Batman? They had their own version of your Batcave right under MEIN camp! Und Schultz knew about i! Ooooh! No vunder we lost!"
okay - this makes zero sense. What would be more entertaining is the writer's bull session when they pitched this scene. nothing follows any logic. I'm not even gonna start... so 20 years after the war and B & R are chummy with nazis sneaking around the USA ...they ask about hogan..what do they think, Klink and him are buddies - Hogan was a soldier and would have knived Klink at first site out of the prison camp..Batman should have done the same. all of a sudden Batman's a dumbass? wha?
@80sVideoLord Haha, as much as I can't beliefe you actually take this seriously I also can't believe you think Hogan would ever knife Klink. He wasn't some murderous concentration camp-boss but a bumbling POW-camp commander, and when did you ever get the impression during Hogan's Heroes that either of those two guys were ever willing to kill each other? lol
does anyone else notice that batman and robin are always climbing up the side of the same exact building everytime they are going after a criminal..i mean look at any episode where they are climbing a building,its the same building everytime...and as far as people always popping thier heads out to talk to them it almost like they are sitting by then window just waiting for batman and robin to show up
@cobra42029 That's because all of the villains in Gotham City live in the same building....LOL. I remember reading somewhere that Egghead became eggggstremely upset at all of the ticking constantly coming out of Clock King's apartment. And Mad Hatter and Mr. Freeze were constantly at odds about the temperature in the apartment building's hallways.
doesnt batman and robin ever get annoyed anytime someone stops to talk to them while they are climbing the side of a building,im amazed batman and robin can hold themselves on the building like that while they are talking
It's hard to imagine Klink or Schultz for that matter as being bad guys. They're kind of like that little Japanese guy on McHale's Navy. They might be on the wrong team, but they're still kind of likeable.
Warning a Nazi to be careful not to get picked up by the Commissioner. This would be a great segment to use on a commercial against those who oppose the illegal immigration law (LOL)
Incredible -- they would try anything on that show. Even cross-promoting another network's product?! Weren't the Network Standards people doing their jobs? Or by this time, with Batman a huge hit, were is producers really untouchable from a creative/script-approval perspective? My final guess is that all concerned, on both sides of the camera, were too high to notice...
@bsmack66 Several of the stars of Hogans Heros were Jewish; Robert Clary, Leon Askin, Richard Dawson, Werner Klemperer, Dave Morick, Noam Pitlik, not to mention the directors, producers, writers, and several guest stars. I think the irony was intended.
Meh...who cares about world history accuracy in a show like this? As with Lurch and the Hornet & Kato, It was the in-joke of its time. Here is a classic example of characters and actors on the 60's US TV market, sharing their success by making crossover appearances on each other's shows. And BATMAN being a campy melodrama in its day, WHO CARES? It was good for a laugh. If anything, it's true to TV history.
This is just good comedy! "Colonel, what are you doing here in Gotham City?" "Well, say hello to Colonel Hogan for us." That's just good stuff. I wonder if I caught all this stuff when I was a little boy! Thanks for posting. Werner Klemperer was a good actor!
This is real. whats funny is klink hasn't aged a bit in 20 years from the 40s to the 60s lol. this ties to of my faverute things together... only if hogan were to team up with batman and trick schultz in to telling hogan and batman where hitler and joker are. mean while Klink thinks he is on the set of a t.v sitcom from stalag 13.
@sweiland75 The actor (Warner Klemperer) playing Klink was a Jew born in Germany, who escaped Hitler's Germany and emigrated to this country! Why don't YOU make an attempt at some intelligence?
How could Klink, who was under contract to CBS, do a spot on Batman on ABC? Met Werner and Adam West the same day at a con in Chicago in 1991. Werner was a wonderful guy. Adam West was his usual sweet, kind, humble self.. hahaha.
He actually came out on to a stage and wouldn't let anyone take pics. It was like ha had secret service all around.
So...Batman is giving helpful advise to a Nazi war criminal in hiding within the United States? Hey, at least now we know what Klink did after the war...
Hmmm...strange. Burt Ward sure was thin back then. Bumped into him in an elevator in downtown Riverside, CA a few years back. He lives in nearby Norco, CA and breeds dogs...probably can't stand Michael Vick!
So in the Batman universe, the Axis won WWII?
