It doesn't get funnier than this show, particularly the early episodes. An integration of intense drama and bone numbing humor, MASH is one of a handful of gems that came out of the seventies, when sitcoms were mastered. Larry Linville, God rest his soul, does such an excellent job at Frank Burns he has become one of my favorite comedians of all time. the early episodes in particular seemed to be full of wit. An entire series dedicated to making fun of people like Frank Burns. One line burners and vibrant personalities made this show so funny I would tape them on the old Betamax so I could see them over and over. They don't make them like this anymore. Now we are suffocated with mindless crap like Everybody loves that Jerk Raymond, Mad About You, Malcolm in the Middle, Friends and other stupid shows for stupid people. I miss the seventies. Bring back MASH, Good Times, All in the Family, The Jeffersons, Taxi, shows that integrated substance and humor and made you proud to be living in America.
