I love MASH, too. And I'm thankful for re-runs, otherwise I'd probably never have started watching it.

I agree Lisa that there's a lot of bad TV, but I actually think there's been a lot of good shows on in recent years. Shows that are well-crafted, well-acted, and intelligent. Dexter, Lost, The Wire, just to name a few. I'm hoping it's a trend that will continue.

once in awhile the cosmic forces come together to give us something as brilliant as MASH, and we're so lucky that the network didn't get rid of it before it took off. shows like MASH and All in the Family make me so angry that we have so few good shows on now....this reality crap is such crap. television is such a wonderful place to bring art to everyone. i'd like to see it used far better than this. MASH was an example of art and popularity mixing so well.

Yes MASH is a gift! We would watch it every night before bed,, especially in my 20's and 30's. A real treat of laughs and tears I truly enjoyed. Potter, BJ and Alan Alda as well as many other stars.. Now all we have up here in the northland is the Red Green Show which is funny and a guy show..LOL! They are re-runs out of Canada on our local PBS station..... Ernie was cool..too!

ok, so back to the "too many choices" thing for a minute.  i had to buy bandaids today.  i had no idea what i was doing. there are the barbie ones, the sponge bob ones, the ones that don't let water in, the antibiotic ones, the airtight ones (weren't they always?), the kind for knuckles, the kind that are fabric....and i could not find the old fashioned original regular ones that i know how to use!!! ...

 

MASH is so good, bob. it is just classically good. one of those gifts from television. and there's soooo much about my three sons that i do not understand. the only character i could relate to is ernie!

Was there a Barnaby Jones? Marcus Welby MD..Dr Killdeer?  Wow? I didn't watch them much so I'm guessing..Wasn't there a Vincent Edwards who was a Dr Casey? and who was doctor who lived in the motorhome in the parking lot of some hospital? My Three Sons with Fred MacMurray ring a bell from back then as well as Father Knows Best with Robert Young.. and of course, my personal all-time favorite M*A*S*H the tv show.

McHale's Navy and Gomer Pyle, USMC were both hilarious military sit-coms. From the '70s, and not funny as such, Ba Ba Blacksheep with Bobbie Conrad was a fave. Love his pitbull terrier!
