MASH Idiots

[ClearShot89]

So who likes MASH? I sure do. I'm borrowing my friends full season collection and watching them from Sea.1 to Sea.11. Right now I'm on Sea.3 I find it hard to believe though that Potter appears in Season 3 as a 2 star General, then comes in on Season 5 as a Full Bird. I'm sure things will come to I continue on though.

But anyone else feel free to tell about your favorite episodes

I love MASH as well. It is great to watch when you have had a hard day. I noticed that Potter was a two star and then came back as a colonel. One of my favorite characters is Major Charles Wichester 3. What is one of your favorite characters?

I have never liked MASH. Does anybody know what this show is called,It's about a American POW in a German POW camp. It's a comedy. The guy who watches him is a extremly-overweight Sergeant.

That's Hogan's Heroes.

I like it but I do get nit-picky about all the little details, uniform mess ups and the thing with the Gen/Col as well. They did it as a comedy and I respect it as much, but their details could use some work thats for sure.

If you actually pay attention, Harry Morgan played two distinct roles in the the series. The first being the visiting general which was a one-time part. Later, when McClean Stevenson left the show, the search for a replacement actor to play the role of the commanding officer was offered to Morgan and the character of Sherman T. Potter, Col, USA was born.

I watch M.A.S.H. on satellite and cable. On satellite I watch MASH on TV Land and Hallmark. On cable I watch MASH on ION television. Do any of you know of any other stations that MASH could be seen on?

Thank you. I really like that show. My favorite episode was when the Sergeant went out with a SS officer and lied to her, and then she got arrested.
:D hahah that was funny.

Personally, I would almost have to say "Hawkeye" cause if I was in his shoes, I would be the exact same way, but probably not so much drinking...

I've only really seen it on ION, cause it's all I have, but I'm watching it from my buddy's box set of all 11 seasons, which is easier on me cause I watch it about 10 hours a day except when House is on, my other equally favorite show... all my shows have to do with either medicine, or military. MASH convieniantly does both with a comedical sense.

And yes I did notice that. My buddy had to explain it to me when I told him when I had noticed it. I just thought that for those who would pay attention would find it peculiur

Which one of Hawkeyes co-stars did you like the best? Personally I liked Captain Honeycut. I think Radar was one of the most memorable characters on MASH. Does anyone know the story of the MASH theme song? I heard something about a producer's son wrote it...............................

I can not honestly decide who I like better. Both were great roles and great actors.


And as for Radar yes he was one of the most memorable one. But watching all the episodes before he left makes me think he was just assigned there for temporary duty, like how Charles Winchester was soppose to fill in for 48 hours, and ended up having to stay....

I have heard that Clinger was a stand in in the first episode, but I have never heard that Winchester was a fill in for 48 hours. Could you explain a little bit more?

Watch the episode when Winchester first appeared. Potter calls this General at I Corps I believe and when the General told him he was to be assigned to the 4077, the General told him it was soppose to only be fore 48 hours. But when he was hoping on the jeep to leave after the 48 hours, the General calls Potter back and says that Winchester's staying.

I remember that episode, thanks for refreshing my mind. Did you know that Winchester was a composer, I think?

Before he was drafted to join the US Army at the start of the Korean War, he was on track to become Chief of Thoracic Surgery.

I was talking about in real life. Did you see the movie made about the MASH characters in th early 90's. The movie is really cool, it talks about all of the characters including Radar, Clinger, and the wacky staff sgt.
