Hogan's Heroes is an American television sitcom that ran for 168 episodes from September 17, 1965, to July 4, 1971, on the CBS network. The show was set in a German prisoner of war camp during World War II. Bob Crane starred as Colonel Robert E. Hogan, coordinating an international crew of Allied prisoners running a Special Operations group from the camp. Werner Klemperer played Colonel Wilhelm Klink, the commandant of the camp, and John Banner was the inept sergeant-of-the-guard, Hans Schultz. The series was popular during its six-season run. In 2013, creators Bernard Fein through his estate and Albert S. Ruddy acquired the sequel and other separate rights to Hogan's Heroes from Mark Cuban through arbitration and a movie based on the show has been planned.

At Stalag 13, a German prisoner-of-war camp, Colonel Robert Hogan and his fellow cohorts are a subversive group with many hidden talents. However, a spy has been planted amongst the men by the Germans.

When Colonel Klink boasts that the Nazis' new Tiger Tank will lead the Germans to victory, Colonel Hogan devises a plan to get his hands on one of the vehicles, have it disassembled, send its blueprints to the Allies, and reassemble it --- right under Klink's nose.

A Secret rocket bomb developed by the Germans is being hidden at Stalag 13. When an Allied scientist is sent to photograph and sabotage the weapon, Hogan and his men plan a distraction — in the form of a bogus "Kommandant of the Year" ceremony for the clueless Colonel Klink.

To prevent Colonel Klink from being transferred to the Russian front, Hogan and his men attempt to convince a visiting Inspector General that the Colonel is a cold, heartless disciplinarian. But their plan backfires when, as a result, Klink is promoted to a post in Berlin!

Hogan's scheme to help a German baroness escape to London is thwarted by the arrival of a new prisoner of war, Colonel Crittendon, whose repeated, bungled attempts at escape are wreaking havoc on Hogan's mission to spirit away the baroness.

While on a sabotage caper, Hogan and Carter encounter a German general, overpower him, and smuggle him back to Stalag 13. Once there, they come up with a ploy to trick the disoriented general into revealing his troop's attack plans.

Several attempts by Hogan and his men to destroy a German bridge end in failure—until they decide to use the Nazis' own ammo to accomplish the task!

What's inside a visiting German general's briefcase that's chained to his wrist? The mystery becomes too tempting for Hogan, who not only wants to photograph the case's contents, but then sneak the photos out of Stalag 13, as well!

When a heavily guarded "water" truck appears one day and is parked inside the camp, Hogan and his men decide to find out just what kind of cargo the vehicle actually contains.

Hogan's only chance to pass some important information off to an underground contact is via a rendezvous in a nearby village.
