Kinda mean to pit father against son.

Where is your last pic from, Cato?  It's not familiar.

Another famous Klemperer was their cousin, the diarist Victor Klemperer.

"To get a Italian officer to defect, they use pizza to tempt him."

Ah, yes, that sounds like the sophisticated humor we all came to expect from that show!

(HH is one of a tiny handful of shows of which I've seen every episode. Which is pretty weird since I'm 23...)

Klemperer the Younger appeared at least once in a MET broadcast, as the jailer in Die Fledermaus.
IIRC, he started out as a musician, then switched to acting.

the phone rings and somebody says,
"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."
