Horrible. I believe it's why some of you are messed up in the head. We could probably look into getting you monetary compensation for watching that bologna during your formative years.  

Not me. The last great sitcom was "Barney Miller".

The interaction between the cast was brilliant and groundbreaking genius. Sadly all this was interwoven around political garbage.  

Alan Alda was a snake.  

Hey! Don't dis Alan Alda! He's cool!!

I love you Smudge, but no.    

They have back to back re-runs between 7-8PM each day. I look at them and would swear they are not repeats as I don't remember the original broadcast of the episode.

hawkeye is the reason I went into military medicine.

MASH...a great show....watched reruns for years....still enjoy it...Klinger in the Gone with the Wind Dress

Second best show ever.

...when I was a Hospital Corpsman, the navy nurses were not nearly as hot as the ones on M.A.S.H.  

M.A.S.H. was awesome.   Col. Potter had more in his little finger than you have in your whole body, and we haven't even gotten to the awesomeness of Radar, Corporal Klinger, and Fr. Mulcahey.

So hear me Cheese, when I say to you -Suck it, Trebek.

 

Capt. Pierce taught me that competency buys some lee way.  

And to always question.....everything  

You guys are proving my point. We could get together and start a class action lawsuit.

...in order to win damages, you'd need to demonstrate causation. I've been messed up in the head for years, and it's very doubtful waatching a couple of seasons of M.A.S.H. had anything to do with it. Much more likely are drugs, hippie agrarian commune living, free love, and the music of Tom Lehrer.

 

 

 

You are correct, PT, impossible to pin down your insanity but I definitely think M*A*S*H might be the answer for otherwise normal folks like Zephyr and Parr8, possibly Smudge.  

HB and Further, definitely Wheels and Petite would be unprovable like you.

Tom Lehrer is simply awesome. A friend gave me a cassette tape of his satire waaaaaaay back in high school (1978) and I've been a fan ever since.

MASH doesn;t hold up as well in reruns as a lot of other classics.   It did have some great characters, though.   Radar and Potter 'specially.

Rg is Jerry-Seinfeld-picky so ahspose he would only perve on the hot ones.

When I was in grad school at IIT, one guy had a color TV in his room in 1973-74 and we loved MASH, All in the Family, Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart, and some others.

Another guy had a great radio system and in his dorm room we listened to "The National Lampoon Radio Hour" which was the precursor to Saturday Night Live on TV and featured Chevy Chase, Gilda Radner, John Belushi, Jane Curtain, etc.
