Some are doing quite well actually, but most of them just don't get the proper pronounciation.
Well, apparently, proper German is quite difficult to speak if you're not a native speaker - also, the writers should try to understand that in German there's a difference if you say "Get in the car!" to one person („Steig ins Auto!”) or to more than one person („Steigt ins Auto!”).
Nonetheless, as a "German native" I'd really prefer to (just once in a while) see Germans referenced in American tv shows without making them the bad guys, without making them bavarian accordion playing nazis! Just for once! Please!
You must realize, WWII was last millennium - most of us don't even have relatives who can tell us about it any more - and in only one single "state" in Germany people wear "Lederhosen" and play German folk music on the accordion! All the others don't!
