Hogan's Heroes launched its fifth season -- and also returned to the series' original Friday-evening berth -- with the episode titled "Hogan Goes Hollywood." Frequent series guest star Alan Oppenheimer plays his flashiest role (with the aid of an elaborate toupee) as Byron Buckles, a vainglorious Hollywood actor who has been captured by the Germans. Klink hopes to star Buckles in a Nazi propaganda film, a fact that Hogan uses to his advantage as part of a sabotage and information-passing scheme. Taking over direction of the film, Hogan decides that Klink should play Schultz and vice-versa -- but this will hardly be the only blow to Klink's enormous ego. Scripted by Richard M. Powell from a story by Tony Thomas (son of Danny, brother of Marlo, and later a prolific TV producer/director in his own right), "Hogan Goes Hollywood" first aired on September 26, 1969. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
