Summary: Are you the Yankee Doodle Doctor?
Review: I don't care what extras come with it. Laugh track or no, just the opportunity to see "Yankee Doodle Doctor" unedited again is worth the price!

Summary: One of the Best Times for One of the Best TV Series of All T
Review: While I haven't seen the DVD transfer yet, and though the extras published to date seem rather skimpy (one may watch the show with or without a laughtrack; big deal), this is one of those must-own purchases. Thie early seasons of M*A*S*H* - with Frank, Radar, Trapper, and Henry - were arguably the best, and it's high time that they were released on home video (in ANY format) in their entirety - this will be the first time that many of these episodes have been made available to own.No doubt M*A*S*H* - The TV Series, Season 1 will contain years' worth of entertainment, and one can only hope that subsequent seasons are released in a timely manner (and not one per year, like the Sopranos)!

Summary: Fantastic!!!
Review: I am looking forward to finally seeing the parts of season one I have never seen. Each and every time the pilot i on FOX or our local programming I miss it and have to wait to try and catch it in the future. The fact it is on DVD is also a bonus as MASH is a program that can be just as funny today as it was in the 1970's when it started. I am very happy to see this television program brought to DVD!

Summary: Welcome to M*A*S*H!
Review: MASH is great. Just thinking of the show makes you smile. It's perfect humor, always with a message and always saying that war is hell. For example Klinger, who wore dresses and ate jeeps just to get out of the war. That makes for great humor, and if you look deeper you can often see a serious part of the show.
MASH is definitly something special, and you can watch almost every episode over and over again without being bored. And the price for it is great! Let's just hope the other seasons are going to be released too!

Summary: One of the easiest shows to watch again and again
Review: M*A*S*H is certainly one of the best shows in TV history. Every other year or so I find myself watching them again and enjoying them even more. The Colonel Blake years are my favorite and the first season was really great. I like them all though and having them released on DVD means many years of great use and for the price of 24 episodes on one release can't be beat. It would be nice to have a few extras, but the show is good enough for me.

Summary: The Glory Years ...
Review: The Wayne & McLean Years. Probably one of the finest comedy/dramas series ever made. I'm buying the first 4 years. Wayne Rogers & Mclean Stevenson left after the 3rd year. The 4th year with Henry Morgan & BJ Honeycutt was terrific as well. 24 Episodes for $30. How can you beat that? The X-File Seasons Cost 5 times as much! Don't expect any extras on this. I hear it's limited to: viewing with a laugh track or without one. Grab it! Enjoy it!

Summary: Truly a classic TV show
Review: "M*A*S*H" is definitely one of the greatest shows to ever grace the small screen-I recently purchased the first season episodes on home video-These episodes introduced us to a memorable cast of characters:Captain Benjamin Franklin Pierce aka "Hawkeye",Captain John Mc Intyre aka "Trapper",clueless Colonel Henry Blake,pompous Major Frank Burns,no nonsense head nurse Margaret Houlihan,alias "Hot Lips",myopic company clerk Cpl Walter "Radar" O'Reilly,& the cross dressing Cpl Max Klinger-Ironically,"M*A*S*H" didn't become a top 10 Neilsen favorite until the following season-I didn't realize that the reruns seen in syndication had been trimmed to allow for the airing of more commercials-That was clearly evident when I watched the first batch of episodes-Someone asked if the show was still on somewhere-It's presently seen on cable's Hallmark Channel-Unfortunately,I don't happen to receive that particular station-Thank God I can watch these classic episodes in this format.

Summary: The best of M.A.S.H.
Review: The first series is my favourite, so I'm delighted to have it on DVD at last. It contains my two favourite episodes. 'To Market, To Market' is the one where Hawkeye and Trapper steal Henry's new oak desk to swop for medical supplies with a Korean black marketeer ("You know how it is, Colonel, we all look alike"). Even better, my all-time favourite episode " Tuttle" where Hawkeye and Trapper convince everyone that the imaginary Captain Tuttle is a real person. Every episode has a cracking script, and the cast are all wonderful, especially Alan Alda as Hawkeye and gorgeous Wayne Rogers as Trapper (how I adored him, it broke my heart when he left the series). And Maclean Stevenson is wonderful as daffy Colonel Blake, and Loretta Swit is brilliant as belligerent Margaret Houlihan, before they made the terrible mistake of softening her character and turning her into a nice, cuddly person (yuk). I've lost track of how many times I've watched this wonderful series over the years, and now I have it on DVD I can watch it even more.

Summary: Finally, Not Chopped For TV Versions
Review: When MASH is on, I HATE it. There are so many commercials that the plots don't even make sense!
Thanks God for the DVD sets. Granted I don't really like the show after season 3 or 4, but those first seasons really needed to be put on DVD in their full format. All the jokes are here! The DVDs look as good as one of Klinger's high heels.

Summary: The best TV series ever!
Review: By my title above, you can see I am a MASH fan. I have been since the shows were first run on TV, through several reruns, and now after they are out on DVDs. I have seen each episode at least four times, most several more times, and still don't get tired of them. I have become so familiar with all the actors and their characters, it is like visiting old friends each time I watch an episode. Yes, I do have a life, and am not as obsessed as this may sound, but I am true fan.
This show is one of the really finest sitcoms ever made for TV. "The Andy Griffith Show" and "All in the Family" are two others, among many others, IMHO, but this is my favorite. Why write a review now months after the DVD release? Just because I am a fan and am excited the series is on DVD and finally on the market. I wrote a similar review for this a while back, and deleted it because there are many here who have summarized what the show is all about much better than I can, but I hoped maybe just one person would catch my enthusiasm for the series and enjoy it at least half as much as I have. I enjoyed the movie, but think the TV series is much better. This is, of course, because the TV series had a much better chance to develop the characters over several years than the movie had in just two hours.
My only complaint about the whole series is the long time between the release of each season on DVD. I am an old man, and hope to get them all before it's too late. Season Seven is in the mail as I write this, with five more to go if I rememeber correctly. As I said, I am getting old.
I can't believe there are many who haven't seen MASH or who aren't aware that this series is available now. But, if you are hesitating to make the investment--don't. This is entertainment at it's finest.
