Hogan's Heroes: The Complete Fifth Season

Book given to granddaughter who enjoyed it

When I bought this, I was a little concerned about the low price. I thought it might be one of those deals where someone had recorded the show off a tv broadcast and is now selling it as legit. But, I was pleasantly surprised to find a good professional copy of each episode and as far as I can tell, it is as it was originally broadcast, meaning no edits to make more time for commercials. If you're a fan of the show, I would recommend this DVD set.

This is a review for the entire series. One of the great TV shows made during the 60's featuring good "clean" dialog and a good cast. The backstories for Clary and Klemperer are also interesting.

I was able to complete my collection because couldn't be found in retail stores anymore.

The stories are unreal how the prisoners can openly dress in German uniforms and walk around freely in the nearest town.Sergent Schultz is by far the most entertaining of the lot and getting away with repeating his few frames all the time.Yoy wonder where the French cook manages to get all his prime ingredients from.Very high restored copy with quality pictures and sound,recomended.

"Hogan's Heroes" came to TV the year I graduated from high school, so between working in the evenings and going to college, I didn't see it very often, but I thought it was kind of cute. Now, we own the whole series and my husband and I watch an episode every night. We're on our second time through. Most of the storylines follow the same formula, some humanly impossible assignment, and everything turns out okay in the end. Nobody dies, at least not on camera, so they're involved in a good, clean war. It's the characters who make the show so compelling to watch. The heroes are a talented group and they all, except Kinchloe, seem like natural comedians. Even Hogan, although his humor is more dry than the other POWs. I enjoy the subtle touches, like Lebeau's side comments in French. When I can understand them (high school French was a long time ago), they are hilarious. My favorite character is Schultz. He steals every scene he's in. Love that man. My least favorite is Klink. He could use the same script for every show. And he's the only one who received an Emmy award for it. Go figure!

I watched Hogan's Heroes back in the day and I still love it. I still laugh at the funny parts like I did before. I'm glad I bought it.

This was a gift for my father-in-law, and he absolutely loves them..

the shows are great buy them you will be happy with them lots of funny shws.

Once the DVD is altered to play any format (easily done in a few minutes with online directions) - keeps my husband laughing for the duration of the videos.

Gift

Loved this when I was growing up.

This DVD set is funny. It is the original 5th season of the classic TV show with all of the original cast members. There are 26 colour episodes that are each about 25 minutes long. It is entertaining to watch with a mixture of comedy and suspense.
