Hogan’s Heroes was a band formed in World War II by a group of POWs in the prison camp Luft Stalag 13, located outside of Hammelburg, Germany. The band was actually a front for their secret espionage ring, being an excuse to get to their targets without being caught by the Germans & having to spend time in the cooler. They played a variety of musical genres & were responsible for a number of musical innovations (see below). Despite the obvious connections between their live performances & the acts of sabotage committed, Colonel Klink, the leader of the camp & the other personnel of Stalag 13 remained oblivious to their activities.

- Hogan's Heroes is a US TV comedy show set during World War II. It aired from 1965 to 1971. The show was set at the fictional "Stalag 13", a German POW camp known for never having had a successful escape. However, this isn't due to German efficiency. The prisoners at the camp remain their of their own choice to work with the Resistance.
- During its six years run, the series received twelve Emmy Award nominations, winning two (Werner Klemperer won twice as Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series), with the series itself receiving three Emmy nominations for Outstanding Comedy Series (1965-1968). 168 episodes were produced. The show continues to be presented in syndication. Series writers created the fictional device gonculator which has since entered the English language. At the moment, all of the episodes are available on VHS tape from Columbia House, while all six seasons of the series are now available on DVD from Paramount.
- In "Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater", as Brian is helping Peter to become a gentleman for the forthcoming auction by starting with polite conversation, Peter instead mentions Bob Crane' death from having his skull crushed during rough sex. Paddy Tanniger is shown to have a secret tunnel like Hogan's Heroes in "Fore Father". In "Emission Impossible", after seeing Stewie emerge from the Peter robot, Cleveland utters Sergeant Schultz's catchphrase, "I seen nothing. Nothing!"
- During the European campaign in World War II, a group of multinational POWs in a small German prison camp execute daring sabotage and spying missions right under the noses of their Nazi keepers. It's just like watching The Great Escape or Stalag 17 -- every week. And the best part? It's a comedy! Starred Bob Crane as Hogan, Werner Klemperer as the supposedly bumbling Colonel Klink, and John Banner as the lovable Sergeant Schultz.

| - In "Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater", as Brian is helping Peter to become a gentleman for the forthcoming auction by starting with polite conversation, Peter instead mentions Bob Crane' death from having his skull crushed during rough sex. Paddy Tanniger is shown to have a secret tunnel like Hogan's Heroes in "Fore Father". In "Emission Impossible", after seeing Stewie emerge from the Peter robot, Cleveland utters Sergeant Schultz's catchphrase, "I seen nothing. Nothing!" Cleveland Brown playing a black Nazi in "I Take Thee Quagmire" is similar to Sergeant Kinchloe played by Ivan Dixon, a black man, frequently and successfully impersonated Nazi officers on the show. Richard Dawson references his role on Hogan's Heroes of Sgt. Newkirk in "Big Man on Hippocampus" when he notes he served in the fictitious military. At the beginning of "Be Careful What You Fish For" a live-action clip of Sergeant Schultz is used for the Channel 5 News report of Mercedes cars found at the bottom of the ocean.
- During the European campaign in World War II, a group of multinational POWs in a small German prison camp execute daring sabotage and spying missions right under the noses of their Nazi keepers. It's just like watching The Great Escape or Stalag 17 -- every week. And the best part? It's a comedy! Starred Bob Crane as Hogan, Werner Klemperer as the supposedly bumbling Colonel Klink, and John Banner as the lovable Sergeant Schultz. Ironically, all the major recurring German army characters were portrayed by Jewish actors. (An old story claims that Werner Klemperer would only do the show when assured that the Nazis would never be anything close to successful or competent.) And Robert Clary (Cpl. Lebeau), born Robert Max Widerman, survived Buchenwald (12 other family members didn't). Hogan's Heroes is one of the first American sitcoms to feature a black character as an integral member of the cast. Kinchloe is Hogan's second-in-command and the camp genius (also very unusual for the time period). The producers cast a black actor to play Kinchloe in part to prevent the network from providing Southern stations with a "black-free" cut, as was common at the time -- Kinchloe was too important to the story line for his scenes to be removed.
