StanJr Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Then there is always my favorite, Hawkeye and BJ are asleep and Radar comes to wake up Hawkeye. Radar: (outside the tent) "Hawk...Hawk?" BJ: "What is that?" Hawkeye: "That's my wife, she always hawks like that..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) Puns aside, I love the mysterious prankster episode too. "Air Raid! Air Raid!" quoth Frank Burns Also, remember Henry Blake all soused up with Scotch. "Guess what kind of wood it is" (his new huge desk) Hawkeye: oak? Henry (slurring heavily): "Nope. It's oak".

tetrode kink Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 How about when hawkeye and houlihan are punning around in supply Hawkeye: "Where's the sulfa?" Hot Lips: "In the living room by the end tables." ... Hawkeye: "Digitalis?" Hot Lips: "No, I'm keeping it a secret." ... That was a good episode, too. -tet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrabbler15 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 "Sulfa so good." I have always been a huge fan of M*A*S*H. I really enjoyed this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkashicRecord Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Old thread, but I just picked this game up for a few bucks the other day since it just seemed so strange and obscure. Not a bad game, though I only played a few of the modes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy2600 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) For what ever reason they took a board game Operation and made it a part of the MASH stage level. Edited March 11, 2019 by Atariboy2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeekDragon Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I bought it back in the day brand new. It came with a olive green t-shirt with the mash logo on the front and 20th century fox games logog on the back. I jused to wear it all the time. I wish I knew what happened to it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt2d2 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Ah, the shows of yesteryear! It's amazing that cheap looking shows that took place in an apartment or a house set (All in the Family, Jeffersons) or some other tiny set, were massive hits. MASH was sorta the same. It was a cheap set built in the hills near Malibu. You can visit the site today, it's still a popular spot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Jentzsch Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I always wonder with these old videos if the source has aged that badly or if the transmission was really that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I always wonder with these old videos if the source has aged that badly or if the transmission was really that bad. Original transmission wasn't bad at all. These are probably from people who recorded them on VHS, never cleaned their heads/took care of their machine, recorded on cheap media, re-recorded/erased/recorded over stuff using the same tape over and over again, had their tracking set way off trying to compensate for such poor practices and then improperly stored their tapes all these years. Extremely common and typical scenarios unfortunately. And then there's today's funky file formats and compression schemes which each device handles differently, poor importing/exporting practices using cheap non-75ohm/non-shielded cables, YouTube's special brand of compression, etc. We should be lucky most vids look this nice today. Remember the original Digital Press vintage gaming commercials video tape? ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt2d2 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Original transmissions BITD (70's, 80's and into the 90's) even could really suck. Channels had static, ghosting, etc. Even cable wasn't that great in some cases. I had "Cablevision" for some of this time, and EVERY channel had this line down the left side near the edge. They didn't care one bit. Even if you take care for your machine heads, use good tapes or cables, etc, the recordings under those circumstances will not be good.

+save2600 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 ^ Right! Ah yes... taken for granted, I grew up near a big city so over-the-air channels were typically excellent. And all throughout the 80's and 90's, never experienced such poor cable performance as you're describing. I remember it being crystal clear. We and I later, when I got my own place, would have never tolerated such poor performance out of cable. Besides "no or fewer commercials" (ha), that was one of their main selling points back then... super solid, better than antenna reception. Of course, we didn't know back then that cable was really drawing off a satellite too. Speaking of which, some of my friends even had those huge C band dishes in their yards. Able to pick up foreign stations from around the world. Now that was the shit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkashicRecord Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 One thing I didn't know until recently was that Doug Neubauer (of Solaris fame) did M*A*S*H as one of his first games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt2d2 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Hahaha, Quadrunner, you were lucky. When I had Cablevision, I was living in Boston! They had this setup where you had an A and B switch. Channels 2-25 say were on A, and if you wanted to watch HBO, so SCIFI or something, you had to get up, walk over to this switch, and click it over to B. Too funny. Eventually I think they had boxes where you could press a button to go from A to B. At this time in parts of more rural New England you might be able to get 1-2 of the big network channels with varying levels of reception, and maybe local PBS.
