Good MASH trivia. :thumbsup:

Ass.

I remember as a kid being excited for that show's premiere episode. Ack, what a mud duck.  Felt so bad for Harry Morgan.

I've always wanted to see After MASH again.  I briefly remember watching like one episode and yeah, not very interesting.

But there's also an element of "what were they thinking?" about it.  A show set during a war used as a thin allegory for another war, sure.  But a comedy based on the goings-on of a midwestern hospital in the 1950s?

What's wrong with that idea? Scrubs was great.

Well, none of them were that much on the ball.  I mean, they were fighting a war for eleven years that ended in three.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The same could be said of postings of more than a few Languishites.

Scrubs was great.   :lol:

IIRC, AfterM*A*S*H didn't even have a laugh track.  Or that much in the way of jokes.  It really was Harry Morgan's vehicle:  of all the M*A*S*H cast, he was the one that wanted to keep going--and he took everybody else on the cast that wasn't burned out or did not have a realistic chance for survival with him.  Because you simply can't be a Special Guest Star on The Love Boat every week.

My Latin teacher was a MASH fanatic and had a MASH trivia game in the classroom.  You got extra points if you got MASH questions correct.

I have to say I was never a huge MASH fan.  Only watched it in syndication.  A few episodes were entertaining but overall I just never got the appeal.

Extra credit in Latin.

My middle sister is currently in full on "rampaging hordes of Muslims are stampeding on a Djihad through Europe and threaten America" mode, sharing all kinds of "real truth" stories and videos from alternative news sources that bring you all the truth the mainstream media censors keep from you. :bleeding:
