Is the show Hogan's Heroes overrated?

I'm a huge M*AS*H fan, and I started watching reruns of Hogan's Heroes on TV. But I just can't get into it though. It's not funny to me.

    IMO, it's got a broader, more predictable comedic sensibility, much of it based on stereotypes, so I'm not surprised someone who liked a "smart" comedy like M*A*S*H doesn't care for it.

    Other smart comedies include Frasier, Community, The Office, and Shameless.

    It was by no means overrated. It was funny in a somewhat understated way, and clever in many of their story lines.

    I loved the show as a kid.  It had spies, bad guys, funny guys, etc.  I still enjoy it as an adult, but with that nostalgic sense.

    I like it.  It's not as good as MASH, and it has a pretty ridiculous premise, but it can be entertaining.

    Surprisingly

    it's actually listed among the worst TV series in multiple online lists

    but I thought it was hilarious.

    I especially like Schultz (that guy can make me laugh and laugh)

    I do not think so. I happen to like it.

    The first three seasons were great. The following years sucked.
