Summary: Great Season
Review: Well I have seen it all and this season of MASH has been very good because 20th Century finally did something smart for these DVDs for seasons 5 and 6 that is put in a PLAY ALL button on the menu of the first screen after the 20th Century Fox logo scrolls up. I have enjoyed all 6 seasons of MASH and just getting started people have said it gets a little boring after season 7 because the famous character Radar goes away for good well your dead wrong Jamie Farr who plays Klinger the Corporal who wears dresses just to get out of the Army has decided to start getting rid of the dodge. Season 6 we see alot of people come and go for instance we see the enviable Frank Burns played by Larry Linville leave the beloved 4077th for the states after he gets discharged with a Section Eight because he becomes crazy. The actual character who played Frank Burns Linville became home sick and decided to have the Execs write Burns out of the script so he can go home to his real life. Enter Charles Emerson Winchester the 3rd played by David Ogden Stires who enters the season in an episode called Fade In Fade Out he is playing a British surgeon who is stationed in Japan for a couple of weeks and gets called up to the MASH 4077 to work in the OR for a two day stint and ends up being permanent because of Frank Burns leaving for home. I have seasons 1-6 on DVD and I have to say without a doubt this is the greatest of them all a sad season and somewhat happy season. But as you all know Radar played by Gary Burgoff leaves after the next season 7 and he leaves in a one hour episode entitled Good Bye Radar in a two part episode they write him out as he is gone on leave because he needed it and Klinger fills in when he gets back Radar's mom is on the phone and his uncle who helps his mom run the farm dies and is needed at home and they send him home on a Hardship Discharge and he leaves amongest the maddness that occurs at the 40 double 7 because the generator that supplies the light in the operating room becomes dead and they need to get it going again but Klinger doesn't amass the expertise it takes to cut thru the red tape in order to get the generator and it takes him a while to get that we see Radar leave behind his beloved teddy that we see him go to bed with every night in each of the episodes. In the very last season we see BJ played by Mike Farrell bury the teddy in a time capsule telling everyone it is for all those who have come to this war a kid and gone home a man and that is what Radar does he leaves the 40 double 7 a kid but goes home a man. The episode is in season 11 entitle As Time Goes By and that shows also a famous fly baidt made by Henry Blake that is said for all of those soliders that never made it home that Henry died in episode 72 of Season 3 in an episode entitled Abyssinia Henry. Hopefully we will see 20th Century make a 4 Disc Special Edition marking the end of MASH season 11 with the finally episode of the series entitled Goodbye Good Luck and Amen on a seperate disk from the others with special feature maybe the 30th Anniversary of The Television series MASH and the making of the show itself with interviews with all the cast and crew who make the show possible and who made children who were born in the time of MASH now about the real people. But overall the season of MASH was awesome.
