I am watching the entire series, have gone through over 120 of the 142 episodes. I think it is pretty good stuff. Bilko is a conniving schemer who is always trying to scam a way to make money. Poker, raffles, plots, schemes, etc. you name it he will try it. There are the episodes where he has a spark of humanity and after taking his mark gives it back one way or another. No matter how hard he cons Bilko never really gets ahead and wins. No army reality here though. The colonel knows Bilko inside and out but still can't seem to stop him. In the real army of course Bilko would have been been busted down and in the brig many times, but then the whole show would not have worked would it?
score 8/10
