Watched Hogan's Heros on German TV pretty much every day. It was kind of funny seeing Colonel Klink and Sgt. Schultz dubbed in German.

I've seen it over there, too. Where the original scripts called for the line "Heil Hitler," they dub in nonsense words or words like "gesundheit."

Ironically, since both Werner and John Banner were both Jews that got the hell out of Germany before the s#it the fan...

I haven't seen them, but I've read that they dubbed in other jokes that weren't in the original -- like Klink having an affair with his secretary, and dubbing "how high does the corn grow?" along with the Nazi salute.

I read that the actors who played Germans in every major recurring role on HH were all Jewish.
