Hilarity finds a home in the most unlikely of places -- a World War II German POW camp -- in this 1960s comedy series.
Bob Crane stars as Col.
Robert Hogan, an irascible wise guy who leads his fellow prisoners in a variety of mad escape plots.
The butts of the jokes are the starched-stiff Germans, particularly Col.
Wilhelm Klink (Werner Klemperer), whose exasperated cry of "Hogan!" became one of the show's many repeatable catchphrases.
