Summary: POOR SOUND
Review: The DVD video xfer is outstanding, but the sound. It is mono and I need to turn everything up to here the dialogue. Why can't they put the same sound effects that FX obviously had (stereo).

Other than that it is outstanding, and well worth the time I am going to spend remastering the sound!

Oh well, again!

Summary: Thank You Alan Alda and FOX for MASH on DVD!
Review: MASH is one of the best DVD collections I've seen. I've been watching MASH since I was kid, and now you can view sceens that havn't been broadcast in many years. Each episode looks excellent and there are short scenes added back in that were edited because of commercials, some of which havn't been seen in nearly 30 years! This is the complete UNCUT MASH television series in all it's glory!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MASH AWESOME
Review: I am so happy to be able to see MASH the way it was intended. Meaning, without the commercials and unedited! 24 episodes for a great price is wonderfull! I am so bored with VHS and glad that I dont have to watch the Columbia House tapes that come 3 episodes per tape. Great stuff! Besides that, they look terrific!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Keep 'em coming!!
Review: I've been waiting for DVD editions of the best show on television for AGES. Thanks to Fox for finally seeing that DVD is where it's at. I love that a whole season is available for purchase at one time. Unlike the FRIENDS DVD's, which are arranged in inexplicable order, and only 6 at a time. Friends producers should take a clue from MASH DVD--it's wonderful to watch a whole season, start to finish. I can't wait for the second through 11th seasons! Sign me up!

Summary: The best is back -- and better than before.
Review: The best comedy series is back, and in the original order and in the original un-cut versions, on many episodes with scenes not seen since they were first aired in the 1970's and 1980's.

But the one thing that always wrecked the episodes for me was the canned laughter telling us when to laugh, sometimes needlessly, so I for one am glad to see that in the DVD version of the episodes, you have the option of turning off the canned laughter.

While Columbia House has collected these episodes in their own collection, it was always out of order, and you had to shuffle through the tapes if you wanted to watch them in order. But with this you can go right through the episodes in order.

The best part about collecting MASH on DVD is that the entire collection won't overpower your collection of tapes. Think about it, 12 DVD boxes (if you count the movie in the collection) about the size of a video tape with all of the episodes accounted for, with 8 episodes per disk or 72 boxes about the size of a video tape with 3 episodes on a tape with about 50 or so episodes missing. I guess it's your choice, but this collection is for me, and I'm getting rid of the Columbia House space takers.

From the way it looks, they'll be doing the entire series from "M*A*S*H: The Movie" all the way up to "Goodbye, Farewell & Amen" in about 4 month intervals, season 2 will be out in May, and by that count season 3 will be out around September and so forth.

I wonder if they'll be doing any of the spinoffs? There were three I think: "Trapper John MD" (the best and most successfull spinoff), there was another with Radar as the main character after he goes home, but I forget the title, and of course "afterMASH".

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: M*A*S*H Fan? If so, then this is a must have.
Review: I'm new to the DVD world, but I believe the transfer to DVD went well - especially for a 1970's era TV show. Not too many features, but the ability to turn the laugh track on or off is great!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Job Well Done!
Review: Being a die-hard M*A*S*H fan (movie and tv series) I've always enjoyed the well drawn characters and their evolution. I remember having to wait a "whole" week to watch a new episode. I can honestly say the last two years, the charactors (and actors) did show some wear, but nonetheless, I still drew some enjoyment. FOX really did a good job with this release, but one drawback is FOX should've included more extras (like background information on the series itself and comentary from budding actors appearing on the show0 Young actors appeared on this show including Ron Howard and John Ritter. But anyway, HATS OFF to FOX!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally! Uncut episodes!
Review: The best part of the MASH DVD series is all of the episodes are uncut. I have watched the first four episodes on the DVDs so far and in every episode, there is three or four minutes of material which is not shown on the re-runs. Highly recommended for any fan of MASH!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Uncut Episodes
Review: I just love the DVD because it is uncut. From the original pilot through. I have only been through the first four episodes. I have watched them recently on TV and I know that they cut out some scenes for syndication purposes. I am laughing harder. I can't wait for the second season to come out in May.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Polished Classic Series
Review: The M*A*S*H series began airing a little less than ten years before I was born. So, I didn't grow up watching it, yet when I watched my first rerun episode with my father when I was around the age of ten, I was hooked. I've been taping every single episode I could get my hands on. Unfortunately, I've never seen the uncut versions, so I didn't know what I was really missing.

Well, everything has been made right. The new boxed sets of each season are uncut, unedited, and I can even turn off the laugh-track if I wish. Not to mention that the picture is much more polished than what is currently being shown on TV. I highly recommend these DVD's to anyone who is even remotely interested the series... Whether you're 45 years old and grew up watching it, or are 20 and caught reruns as a kid. It's a pure classic.
