Did anyone else change the channel when this show came on?


I don't remember what came on before this during the re-runs, but once I saw that intro come up, the channel was guaranteed to change.

reply

NOPE...I LOVE MASH...ALWAYS HAVE...ONE OF MY DAD'S FAVORITE SHOWS TOO.

reply

I like Alan Alda, but this show irritated me.

reply

YOU EVER WATCH HIS FILMS?...HE MADE SOME STRANGE MOVIES...LIKE SWEET LIBERTY.

reply

A few. Sucks what he's going through now.

reply

I would watch the first 3 years in reruns but now the whole thing is quite tired to me so I always change the channel.

Yes, I change the channel to whatever channel is running MASH unless it's from the early years or some of the more preachy ones.

There was a time, when I was young, that I loved this show. I found the irreverence and constant complaining about authority entertaining. Now, after having matured, I see Hawkeye and Trapper as irresponsible and juvenile, and I can't stomach the sanctimonious preaching or Alda's irritating imitation-Groucho line delivery. Now, if a promo for "M*A*S*H" pops up during a commercial break, I hit the mute or fast-forward button as quickly as possible until the show I was watching resumes.
