Before Cheers, MAS*H was a long running sitcom that spanned a decade (ironically, was much longer than the war itself).

There were hilarious moments, and there were serious, heart wrenching moments. We said goodbye to Henry Blake and hello to Sherman Potter, goodbye to Trapper and hello to BJ, and goodbye (and good riddance) to Frank Burns and hello to Charles Winchester. And we had a definite goodbye to Radar.

But there will always be iconic moments from drinking spirits in "the swamp" to Klinger in dresses!

MAS*H was a truly fantastic and brilliant sitcom. Glad I got the whole... llegiu la resta.

This Korean War medical team unit is really two shows. So, it's rated in two parts. MASH is sort of four different shows. I've read the book. I've seen the movie, and I've seen the two different formats of the TV show. The book was much like the first show, where Major Burns is a total scapegoat. There's no way to believe that Hawkeye is a god and Burns is responsible for every terrible thing that ever happened. That's the book and the Larry Linville portion of the series. Linville himself knew this was a career ending role, and that the character of Burns was ridiculous. It did make for... llegiu la resta.
