I got M.A.S.H. - Seasons 1- 7 for Christmas

[dr.strangelove]

This is maybe the best gift I ever got, way better than a sweater. My wife was debating between this and some power tools I have been hinting at. I am glad she made the right call.

I'll be watching every episode of MASH for the next few months (at least the first 7 seasons worth). Since nothing on TV today even comes close to making me laugh, this will be very much appreciated.

My wife is the BEST!!!

1. hi, I'm your new best friend!!! can I come over?!

she can only top that gift by making you a 'still, just like Hawkeye's

[dr.strangelove]

2. Whenever you want, stop by

I love that TV show. I figure I will need 6 months to watch them all.

If she makes me a "still" I'm going to nominate her for wife/best friend of the year. Let me think, woul dI rather have a table saw or years of laughter. She made the right decision.

4. Once BJ started wearing a pink shirt...

The series turned to crap.

[dr.strangelove]

7. Wrong - MASH never jumped the shark

You really think it went bad at some pink shirt point?

[KSAtheist]

10. Yes.

Then it turned from a series about people dealing with the war in unique and clever ways to a series about people not dealing with the war--craziness, alcoholism--blah blah blah.

I think that episode of Futurama with the iHawk was right on the money. The iHawk robot could switch between "Irrelevant" and "Maudlin" modes. Like this exchange:

Nurse: Leave Dr. Zoidberg alone, he has twice the training you do. iHawk: Yeah, he's a doctor and a butcher.
Zoidberg: Oh, see, this is how it starts. First with the jokes, then comes the heavy stuff.



iHawk: When will the killing end?

5. Definitely better than power tools-------enjoy!

6. Just stop watching when McLean Stevenson left

After that, the show was absolute dogshit.

8. Col Blake was a great character, but the show was great after he left too

I loved the Col Potter character, but not as much as Blake. That Col Blake death episode still makes me cry.

11. Decent point

I'm just a bit more old school regarding MASH. After Blake/Burns/Hunnicut, it was over for me.

12. The last season was weak, but the Finale was GREAT.

9. Looks like 70 hours of Mash
