Col. Klink and Sgt. Schultz singing “Silent Night” in German
And the entire cast of Hogan’s Heroes joins in holiday song:
You have to give it a couple of minutes before the full-on weirdness begins, although for me Bing Crosby and Bob Crane sharing a stage is right up there with the Bing/Bowie video everyone always trots out this time of year. I almost hoped that John Banner, the actor who played Schultz, would toss in an “I hear nothing!” what with it being a Silent Night and all. No such luck, but it’s still pretty fabulous.
This is why baby Jesus made the YouTube. I’d have the video here for you to watch, but embedding has been turned off on this one for some reason. So click and enjoy your holiday just a little more.
