Rating: Summary: What to do on a sunny day.... Review: Watch M*A*S*H. Yes, its worth giving up a sunny day. The great thing about the first three sets is we see the ENTIRE episodes. So many segments, up to two minutes long, have been cut out of the reruns for the sake of time and/or censorship. Well, they are on the DVDs in all of their glory.I wish the folks responsible would speed up the release schedule. I would like to get the rest of these before I get too old to watch them.
Rating: Summary: LOTS OF FUN.... Review: We now own all 3 of the MASH CD's and have a great time watching them. If you are a true MASH fan, you will LOVE all of the CD'S! Can't wait for Season 4!!
Rating: Summary: M*A*S*H fans will be happy for a 3rd time! Review: Well, this series of DVDs kicks off the 3rd season. The characters become more rounded out. The interaction quicker and more witty. And most importantly, the characters have gelled in the minds of the writers. In fact, this was the first season that Jamie Farr was offered a full time contract!!! Before that, he was a "day player" and only made a few appearances. Now, if you are a M*A*S*H fan, this should pose no surprises to you. You probably already knew this. So, for big fans you are asking yourself, what will I get by buying this? The answer is simple: A concise collection of the 3rd season with each episode in its entirety. For commercial reasons, there always seems to be a little missing from each episode, and these DVDs are able to ensure that the ENTIRE episode is delivered. Now, understand that there are still no behind-the-scenes interviews or "special features", etc. You will simply get 24 episodes with no interruptions (which is always better than having to watch them with commercials and having a few seconds cut out). So, for you die-hards, I happily recommend this title, it is definitely worth the reasonable price.
Rating: Summary: Another silly Army season!! Review: What can I say about a TV series that is already great. This by far is one of the best seasons. The season opener starts right out with a big laugh in "The General Flipped at Dawn". This is the episode that won Harry Morgan an Emmy and the role of Col Potter. You must see his interaction with Klinger! Of course you see two more appearances of Col Flagg, the infamous CIA agent, who never leaves. This is also the season that has Trap and Hawk (with Radar's help) looking to have ribs delivered from Chicago. And what a great episode when Gen Macarthur decides to visit and Klinger dresses up as the Statue of Liberty and the General salutes him! The season ends in a with the leaving of Lt Col Henry Blake. I am sure to be happy when they release this season and can't wait for the others! They're all a must buy!!!
Rating: Summary: Best of the McIntire/Blake years, but not the series Review: Yes, season three is the best, but only the best of the first three seasons. For me, MASH doesn't really get good until Harry Morgan and Mike Farrell come on. However, there are some great episodes during this season. My favorite is "Adams Rib" where Hawkeye goes crazy in his desire for take out ribs from Chicago. Once they figure out the rib place, they have to get them to Korea. One of the funniest MASH recurring characters, Cl. Flagg, makes an appearance in "Officer of the Day," and later in "White Gold." Finally, Henry says goodbye in the last episode, a MASH classic. I have all 3 seasons so far and working toward building a collection. But, at least for me, the five star seasons don't start until season 4, the best season of the series. I look forward to that release.
