Over the years, this post has continued to get comments two, in fact, in the last couple of weeks. And, being a comedy, we can be pretty sure that it won't be a tragic end that befalls these much-loved characters. Additionally, there's the unique dymanic of the relationship between the captors and captives, especially that between Hogan and Klink, that really begs a "rest of the story" story. After all, the concept is a closed circuit we all know that World War II ended, and so the heroes' time in Stalag 13 would have come to an end as well.

But if there were ever a series that deserved a closing episode, it's Hogan.
Back then, though, that generally wasn't the case. Today, of course, it would go without saying just about any series that isn't cancelled in the middle of its first season gets the chance to have the last word. Today, though, I make an exception.Ī few years ago-almost nine now, if you can believe it-I wrote what I thought was a fanciful little piece speculating on what would have happened if one of my favorite shows, Hogan's Heroes, had been given a final episode.
Idon't think I've ever given an old piece a bump to the top to be sure, I've resussitated a few old pieces here and there, if they prove to be timely in their subject matter (or if I prove to be untimely in my ability to come up with something new), but usually once I write something, it becomes part of the archives, destined to be found only by people looking for it (or stumbling upon it).
