Who remembers the first time they saw mash? I do I was in a military hospital and all the old diggers used to watch it. That was 1981

As much as I love Mash, I would really really love it if we could watch Mash episodes as if they were new. Like no cutting clips out so there is more commercials. from the pilot - season 11, episode 18. plus goodbye & farewell....... please?

Hey MeTV! The "letter" regarding Trapper's toenails was a TAPE RECORDING! So Hawkeye didn't "write" it. Ferret Face!
9 out of 10.
The only one I got wrong was number 6.
I thought it was BJ, but obviously it was Col. Potter.
Thinking back, I realize that it WAS Col. Potter.

If i'm not mistaken there was one with the psychiatrist Sydney Friedman called "Dear Sigmund"(as in Sigmund Freud)that I always thought was one of the better letter writing episodes.
Only one I missed was #6, and I knew someone who called himself the "new kid" wasn't going to be Frank Burns, but it could as easily been either Potter or B.J.
That's what I thought too.
Obviously we were wrong.

I got 8 out of 10 correct. Now that's something I would write home to
