An amalgamation, some 'canned' laughter, some not

The oddities are overlapping episodes, with Henry Blake still in charge, then Sherman Potter, then back to Henry

'Ditto' Frank Burns & Charles Emmerson Winchester (the third!)
 
I was lucky that when I first saw it (on BBC 2?) in the 70s, there was no canned laughter.

Ever since, I've only seen it with canned laughter.
As you say they took off the laughter track for the BBC but when shown by non BBC Satelite channels they leave it on ..... The DVD's though you can switch the laughter off.

OK confess: we're all watching Alias Smith and Jones because it happens to be on ITV4 and we're waiting for the cycling highlights.

I had a poster of Ben Murphy cut out of Jackie magazine. Fancy Pete Duel a lot more now - reminds me of Mr G at the same age! Ben is a bit too cutesy. The women are all wearing terrifically strenuous bras - "lifts and separates"... hmm, should post that on @Marmion 's ad nostalgia thread!

[QUOTE 3174905, member: 259"]I seem to remember years and years during the seventies when the only halfway decent thing on TV was MASH.

I watched a few on Netflix recently and I wouldn't bother again. A few stereotypes and a lot of jokes repeated ad nauseam.[/QUOTE]

Have you seen MASH the movie? Donald Sutherland and Elliot Gould, and Robert Duvall as Burns, it looks like it might be fun.
