Television makes me homicidal

Present day sitcoms are lame, I've hated "reality" TV since it first started catching on, liberal media is worthless for receiving any real genuine fact based information, history shows are all old news, The X-Files series is completed, Even Stevens is no longer on Nickelodeon (the final step towards their demise ever since the original cast of All That was phased out), Mr.Rogers died, the people on Fear Factor are not really in danger of losing their lives, and people like Drew Carey have their own shows.

As far as I am concerned, the only real reason to watch TV right now in this day and age is to watch M*A*S*H, which is on every night at 11:00PM to 1:00AM in the morning except Sunday on the Hallmark Channel (Let me say that this is also the ONLY reason to be watching the Hallmark Channel).
Everyone in that show is just so entirely crazy in their own unique way that it makes them so very normal. This show definitely deserves to be on more channels than the Hallmark channel. That is most certainly a disgrace. It displays the lowered standards of society's entertainment. You just don't get the same spread of actors, personalities, storyline, drama, and humor anymore.

So someday when I am old and I have a high pitched frail voice, I can be the person that says "And when I was young, there use to be a bag of garbanzo beans worth of channels, and all that was playing was a dag flabbin' new reality show that was lame as a pig on a spit in the heat of July. Yep, the only show worth kicking the can for was MASH. And now, kids got no respect!"

Hmm, I did not know about the book version. I have never come across that.

I agree with you on the Colonel. When Potter came on the scene, he brought with him a bit of a more serious tone at times. Not that it wasn't funny, but the show seemed to be moving a bit from pure humor and comedy. He took a little warming up to, but I like him.

Henry Blake was cool in that he was in charge and he knew what he was doing, but he was laid back and sometimes clueless.

"General Mitchell, It's both an honor and a privilege and a pleasure to welcome you to that which only through your magnanimous generosity are we able to be standing in the middle of it." -- Col. Henry Blake.

There is a quotable line from the show every other sentence that is spoken. It is great.
