Sex, Fame, and Murder: The Bob Crane Story

Ever heard of Hogan’s Heroes? A lighthearted sitcom about POWs outsmarting the Nazis sounds odd now, but in the 1960s, it was a hit. And no one benefited more than its star, Bob Crane. He skyrocketed to fame as the charming Colonel Hogan, but behind the scenes, things were far from picture-perfect. Bob’s obsession with women, his descent into homemade pornography, and his complicated friendship with John Carpenter led to a tragic end. Found brutally murdered in 1978, Bob’s death remains one of Hollywood’s most infamous cold cases. In this episode, we dive deep into Bob’s rise and fall, the controversial investigation, and the lingering suspicions surrounding those closest to him. Was it his best friend? His estranged wife? We’ll untangle the mystery and let you decide.
