Hogan's Heroes: Colonel Klink's Secret Weapon (1967)
Season 2, Episode 28
7/10
There's a new sergeant in town.
25 September 2014
When Klink's prison camp gets a poor rating by the Inspector General, Klink transfers in another sergeant with strict disciplinary procedures. Sergeant Reinhold Franks comes into the camp and starts quoting regulations to the point of making every sick of his presents. Even Klink gets sick of the sergeant when he has to file a report advising that Klink's paperwork is months behind. Now everybody, including Klink, wants this mad man gone.

With the Inspector coming back in a few days Hogan will have to come up with a plan where the new sergeant looks bad. With the help of LeBeau's sewing techniques, they just might accomplish the task.

There is another small semi-plot concerning an American flier getting out of camp but that really gave nothing to the story. The concept of the strict sergeant was a nice touch and needed no further sub-plots to enhance the story. The episode was enjoyable enough with the only minor flaw being the overacting of Milton Selzer in the part of the sergeant. But perhaps he was directed to be over-the-top in the role which was enjoyable enough to make for a nice show.
