1. I loved Hogan's Heroes. The whole cast of characters on the show made it, IMHO, one

of the most popular shows on TV.

2. It's a favorite here, too. Even my 20- something son laughs at it.

3. He was also the morning guy at KNX in LA for years

before Hogan’s Hero’s.

4. My father was a startlingly convincing Bob Crane look-alike.

Even though he was twelve or so years younger than Crane. My dad's name was also Bob, so any time we went out in public, like to a restaurant, my dad would attract attention for his resemblance to Bob Crane, especially when someone in our party called him 'Bob.'

This happened several times even after Bob Crane's death was reported. Strange way for me to grow up.

5. "Has Anybody Here Seen Quincy?"

This episode of Quincy aired not too long before Bob Crane was murdered. Maybe the police should have considered Jack Klugman a 'Person of Interest'?
