Does anyone remember Father Mulcahy’s bicycle?

I was just watching season 8’s “Heal Thyself,” specifically the scene where Hawkeye, BJ, Margaret, and Father Mulcahy are outside OR looking for Dr. Newsome.

I’ve never noticed it before, but Father Mulcahy comes riding up on a bicycle while he’s searching for Newsome. I know it’s not a major plot point or really important at all, but I’d never seen Mulcahy on a bike before that I remember.

This was a rough one to get through. There's a mystery thief at the camp, and Hawkeye has to play detective to clear his name! Could we get more 70’s sitcom-shlock if we tried?! My cohost JB even had to record from the surgeons' lounge at the hospital for this...

I love two lines in this exchange:

"I can't sir it makes me woozy" and the ultimate gut-buster "You eat it!"

But here's my question - are they playing tic-tac-toe with peas and whatever those white things are?

PSA: don’t fall asleep during season 11

54 Upvotes

I have loved this show for years and have seen it through countless times at this point (I have a few episodes memorized). I’m not sure how relatable this is for anyone, but do not under any circumstances, ever fall asleep to season 11 of mash when you’re 16 days postpartum. You just might wake up to Goodbye Farewell and Amen and due to unbalanced hormones (and that part where Hawkeye relives the baby on the bus scene) won’t be able to console yourself for hours. This episode used to wreck me pre-baby but it really hits different when you have one of your own. I love this show and how it never shied away from all of the emotions, but wow. So many facets of this episode are beautiful and cathartic but if you’re caught unawares, it can get ugly fast.

These are the episodes that I love the most; I never tire of revisiting them, and they're always a pleasure to revisit whenever I get the chance. Of course, these are just my personal opinions, so you don't have to agree with any of them if you don't want to, because M*A*S*H has so many great episodes, there's something for everyone.

Either way, these are my personal Top 10 M*A*S*H episodes:

Question What was the budget of a typical episode?

In all honesty I’ve been watching season 4 and I’ve been frankly blown away by the production budget for the time, pre-cable explosion. I can’t find any verifiable sources however, so I thought id ask

Discussion Something to Look For the Next Time Anyone Happens to Watch GFA

25 Upvotes

We know that during the filming of GFA, Malibu Creek State Park endured a brush fire that destroyed pretty much all of the exterior 4077th compound set, and as such, the fire had to be worked into the script.

However, if you pay close attention, there are a few scenes that took place before the fire in the episode that were actually filmed after the fire. There are a few signs to look for: trees in the immediate surrounding of the compound is covered in jarringly fake-looking green leaves while trees along the mountains are either completely bare or have some brown leaves on them; tents look like they were just thrown together in a hurry (with the exception of the Swamp); the main hospital building already has brown burn marks that look like they attempted to clean off.

Perhaps the most obvious and noteworthy example of such is the scene in which Hawkeye drives the tank out of the compound and into the garbage dump because, as some fans have pointed out, it's an entirely different tank than the one that was driven into camp and left where it was.

This guy just drove me crazy. His snarky look to Winchester, his whining about not getting his eggs? That very punchable face.

Can't think of a minor character who is a member of the 4077th that I despise more.
