What the bleep is AfterMash? Only one I missed.
It's the show that documented the aftermath of M*A*S*H
If there are those who don't even know what AfterMASH is, that means it's time for MeTV to get the rights and show it once or twice. (Hallmark showed The Golden Palace once or twice after runs of The Golden Girls.) Or maybe it would be more suited to AntennaTV, since they seem to show more one-season and season-and-a-half series such as The Paul Lynde Show, Three's a Crowd, The Ropers and Lotsa Luck!
12 out of 15. A couple of tough ones.
13 out of 15...not too bad.
Just forget it! 😉😄
That bad, huh?!?! Sorry to read that! Better luck next time!
😂 oh yeah 😄💩
Must have been pretty bad.,..
"Les? Les, are you there?...Les isn't there...Thanks for that on-the-spot report, Les. In case you missed it, the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been bombed with live turkeys...Film at eleven."
