Fan Favorites: The Best of "Hogan's Heroes"






Join Colonel Hogan and the rest of the gang at Stalag 13 in Fan Favorites - The Best of Hogan's Heroes! The single disc release, containing eight episodes of the series (as selected by fans), brings the "best" of the 168 episodes to one DVD.

Starring Bob Crane, the series takes viewers back to World War II (although the series was produced and aired in the 1960s) where Robert Hogan and his Allied prisoners are captured by Nazis and living in a POW camp. But this is no serious drama about Germany during the war.

Instead, the series follows the hilarity of Colonel Hogan and his fellow Allied prisoners always plotting and scheming to undermine the Germans from within.





Episodes:

'The Flight of the Valkyrie'
'Hogan's Hofbrau'
'Happy Birthday, Adolf'
'The Safecracker Suite'
'Praise the Führer and Pass the Ammunition'
'Some of Their Planes are Missing'
'D-Day at Stalag 13'

Fan Favorites: The Best of "The Honeymooners"






Jackie Gleason, Art Carney, Audrey Meadows, and Joyce Randolph return to DVD once again with eight favorite episodes from the "classic 39" episodes of "The Honeymooners", as selected by fans. The single-disc release from CBS Home Entertainment has eight of the episodes from the only season of the series (as a separate entity, anyway).

The characters which we are all familiar with were conceived a few years earlier as skits on "The Jackie Gleason Show", and the popularity of the characters--Ralph, the working-class bus driver, wife Alice, his friend Ed Norton, and Ed's wife Trixie--lead to the creation of the classic series in the 1955-1956 TV season.



While the series was loved by many, star and creator Jackie Gleason was not really a fan of the limitations and demands created by needing to create exactly 39 episodes lasting exactly 25 minutes (no more and no less) every week and returned the characters back to their familiar home on his variety show, which allowed much more flexibility (and opportunities to "repurpose" scripts, as he often did).

Despite that, the "classic 39" episodes are the ones that linger most strongly in the eyes of the fans and are the most memorable of all of the different eras of "The Honeymooners" (which continued in different forms all the way in to the 70s).

Now, CBS Home Entertainment has complied eight "favorites" of these classic episodes into a value-priced single disc collection.





Episodes:

'TV or Not TV'
'Funny Money'
'The Golfer'
'The Sleepwalker'
'Better Living Through Television'
'The Man From Space'
'$99,000 Answer'
'Young at Heart'
