Summary: Returning it!!
Review: It took a long time to receive this item and when I finally did the set contained 1 tape of Volume One and 2 tapes of Volume Two in 2 Volume One covers and 1 Volume Two cover. Got all of that! Plus the quality of the tapes is very poor even for used.

Summary: A Jewel For Fan's Who Where Too Young During The 70's- 80's
Review: At 26 I was to young to see the show during it's original run. Syndication cuts out Approx. 4 min from each episode which cheats the viewer especially the "Fans" of the show.
I also appreciate the fact I was able to turn off that stupid laugh track which I have always thought to be annoying.
Final thought I cant wait for the next 10 seasons to be released.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EXCELLENT DVD COLLECTION
Review: If you ever watched this show the early episodes are the best. This set is great for the money. They package the set well and compress the entire season onto to as few discs as possible. This is a great way to watch. No commercials!!! Any fan of the show or comedy will enjoy these. I only wish other shows would come out this way.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: M*A*S*H is back
Review: Although comapared to many I am a young fan of the show. And fans everywhere will be more than happy to add this to their collections. I can't wait for season 2 to come out. The organization was terriffic although they could have done alittle enhancing of the actual pictures. But the laughs and good old friends are still same as ever! And unlike other TV shows put on DVD all the episodes from season one are all there! No fan can be without and wonderfully priced for the buying!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The TV episodes, no more, no less
Review: Usually this kind of DVD release would get 2 stars from me. Why? Not because of the content, because if you buy this DVD you are a M*A*S*H fan who is just delighted to get it on DVD so you can get rid of those old VHS tapes.

So what's wrong with this DVD? Well, it doesn't have ANYTHING that my old VHS tapes didn't have already. The picture hasn't been cleaned (looks grainy), doesn't additional commentary, footage, etc. This is a bit poor considered this is the collector's edition (I haven't seen the non-collector's, though).

However, the DVD has a good price tag. One buck a episode is more or less what it cost to have them on a VHS tape, so it's a very good deal. If all TV shows I love were released at this price, I would buy as many as I could afford. I love M*A*S*H the show, so I'm not really interested in additional material that is not the show itself. Sure, I expect it on a DVD when it costs [...] for a movie, but for 24 episodes of M*A*S*H, I don't need any material that could make the DVD more expensive.

Three single sided DVDs are included. Also a booklet listing the episodes, and a brochure of season 2, being is announced for May 2002.

Technical information: 612 minutes. Closed captioned. Audio in English and Spanish (both mono). Subtitles in English and Spanish. Comes with optional laugh track (they don't say how it aired, by the way). 4:3. Region 1.

Included episodes: 1. Pilot. 2. To Market, to market. 3. Requiem for a Lightweight. 4. Chief Surgeon who? 5. The Moose. 6. Yankee Doodle Doctor. 7 Bananas, Crackers and Nuts. 8. Cowboy. 9. Henry, please come home. 10. I hate a Mistery. 11. Germ Warfare. 12. Dear Dad. 13. Edwina. 14. Love Story. 15. Tuttle. 16. The Ringbanger. 17. Sometimes you hear the bullet. 18. Dear Dad...again. 19. The Longjong Flap. 20. The Army-Navy Game. 21. Sticky wicket. 22. Major Fred C. Dobbs. 23. Cease Fire. 24. Showtime.

Summary: mash is a masterpiece
Review: This collection of the 24 original first season episodes has been carefully mastered to dvd from top quality original sources. It has been assembled in correct broadcast order, with interesting menus that have great graphics. One of the better features is that you can disable the laugh track on any episode you wish. The only thing missing from this splendid dvd set is I only wish they would have included an outtake reel and perhaps some commentary from the surviving cast members. That would have made this set extraordinary. If you are a mash fan, this set is a must have. I look forward to the second season of episodes on dvd. I hope they are done as well as the first.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: At last!!!
Review: At last the show comes to DVD! It was well worth the wait. Not only is the DVD very well done but the episodes are uncut. If you've been watching the reruns for years you will see footage you have never seen before in almost every episode. The only bad thing to say is that the DVD does not include a 'play all' feature to allow marathon shows of all the episodes one after the other. You have to pick each episode specifically to watch. If you like M*A*S*H this is a must have collection.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: VHS edition has extremely poor picture quality
Review: As delighted as I am to finally get the whole season one of MASH on video, I am very disappointed by the poor quality. The VHS tapes are recorded in EP mode, and somehow I could adjust my VCR's tracking only to either get a distorted picture and good sound, or acceptable picture quality and distorted sound.

Also, the episodes are arranged in production order rather than broadcast order. This makes more sense as far as some of the story lines are concerned, but the VHS boxes list the episodes in broadcast order, and therefore are useless.

MASH is a great series, and it was great to see these episodes again, but the viewing pleasure was spoilt a lot by the extremely poor quality of the VHS edition. If you own a DVD player that plays region 1 tapes (mine only plays region 2), go for the DVD edition, by all means.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: M*A*S*H - Season One (Collector's Edition)
Review: After watching the first few episodes I could not stop watching them, and after a couple of nights after work they had all been watched. My wife, who had never seen any of them before in her native Philippines is now hooked also. My 12 and 10 year old daughters even like it, a family show in a time where most are not. I cannot wait for all the other seasons to come out.
From "Yankee Doodle Dr." to "Capt Tuttle", the 4077th MASH keep the laughs coming. Great for any time.
