#Hogan's Heroes

Come watch Hogan's Heroes, we have...

• Short king firecracker chef & self-proclaimed uncle of dogs

• Sweet goofy neurodivergent cinnamon roll who does the science & has the highest kill count in the show

• Fearless leader who definitely has favorite children & could probably convince you a brick was made of solid gold

• Lovably sleazy James Bond reject card shark who charms his way into your heart & your safe

• The quiet, capable sane one who holds everything together & has occasional bouts of sass

• Guy acting friendly & refined in an unfriendly unrefined business who wonders why he loses street cred daily

• Guy who can't always be bothered, but can always be bribed with food & we don't talk about how lowkey relatable that is enough

I wanted to try that colour wheel meme! I think the Doctor gets to count as a bit of a wild card...

Hello, @he-ate-with-the-wrong-people

I'm not too familiar with who's who on Tumblr. The HH tag is a good thing to keep tabs on posted content. I don't know who consistently posts mostly HH stuff. We're an eclectic group with lots of different interests. But I'd say you have to check out @belphegor1982 and her art/stories (she's so good at writing LeBeau) and @benevolenterrancy has the most adorable HH drawings (she's been a consistent PBA winner since we started to include multimedia). @incorrect-hh-quotes @incorrect-stalag-13 are hilarious. There are more of us out there but I'm terrible with handles. So start there!

Listen.  Listen.

I need you to understand why the whole Goncharov thing is so hilarious to me as a Hogan’s Heroes fan.

In 1968, the second episode of season 4 of Hogan’s Heroes centered around the Heroes coming up with a nonexistent piece of electronic equipment to trick the Germans into bringing a defecting electronics expert within their reach to smuggle him to England.

The Heroes put on an Entire Bit, using a rabbit trap one of the Heroes made, plus random electronic parts, complete with nonexistent technical jargon for the Germans to overhear.  And not one of the Germans wants to admit that they have no dang clue as to what the Heroes are talking about, not even the recurring character of a general who is (normally) one of the most foreboding foes for the Heroes.

And the name the Heroes gave for this piece of nonexistent equipment, which makes what’s going on now even more hilarious?

The Gonculator.

From a rabbit trap becoming a Gonculator to a shoe becoming Goncharov, it’s practically full circle.

Col. Hogan was THE original gatekeep gaslight girlboss

Klink, who has done nothing wrong: They’re coming for me

Colonel Hogan, currently wanted for spying, identity theft, counterfeiting, blackmail, bombing matters and arson: *sipping a smoothie* Yeah, probably

And the winners of the first ever Hogan's Heroes best episode tournament are...

"The Swing Shift" and "Klink vs. the Gonculator!"

I want to give a big thanks to everyone who voted! Running this tournament was a lot of fun, and it was cool to see how people voted. There were definitely a couple of episodes I was sure would get farther than they did.

If anyone has any ideas for another Hogan's Heroes-themed tournament, feel free to send them my way!

I’ve thought about this a lot & sometime over the years here made this post, but it was on a blog that got deleted so I’m doing it again! I always think about what D&D class the Stalag 13 crew would play as & maybe someday will write a full fic of them playing but for now here we go!

The Hogan’s Heroes Cast’s DnD Characters

Hogan- Human fighter, no need to worry about all that fancy stuff. Almost went paladin but he’s not out for the glory or exactly in the market to become the party tank. Still pulls risky moves to save the others, though.

Newkirk- Elf rogue one hundred percent. He considers being a bard but just goes with a rogue really good at disguises so he can break into places for the party instead of having to worry about giving inspiration at the right time.

Carter- Knows more than anything he wants to be a wizard to be able to cast fireball, but isn’t sure what race he wants to be until he learns he can also be a literal fire genasi. Somebody stop him. Except don’t actually, his character usually ends up doing the most damage. Boom!

Kinch- Goes for artificer and the others end up envying his armor and subsequently amazing AC. Plays a gnome and has fun doing a voice for his character. He and Carter are the only ones that take the roleplay that seriously unless an attractive NPC comes along. His character should be the tank but all the others always rush in first so it’s more like cleaning up their mess.

Lebeau- The others insist he play a halfling and after chewing them out he goes elf instead just to prove a point. Goes for cleric so they’ll have some healing, duh! His character acts like the others are unrefined, but occasionally turns around and goes absolutely feral in battle.

Klink- Thinks his character is going to be the smooth one like Newkirk isn’t sitting right there. Makes a Tiefling Rogue based on the ‘handsome devil’ concept but doesn’t build/play him that stealthy, trying for a more swashbuckling approach. It doesn’t usually work.

Schultz- Has no idea what he’s doing, accidentally creates the party cinnamon roll everyone wants to protect because he’s the nicest to the NPCs out of fear. Thinks being a wizard sounds fun so his character is a little halfling in the classic pointy, starred wizard hat. Halfling because he’s tired of the size jokes, thank you very much!
