I don't recall if that was in the movie or the show. But his version was far better than the official one. <BR/><BR/>Also don't you think Dwight and Angela on "The Office" are the reincarnation of Frank Burns and Hot Lips Houlahan? I think that's why I love their relationship. It's a hilarious dymanic that still works.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-66442430302089492952007-04-10T08:22:00.000-07:002007-04-10T08:22:00.000-07:00I would like to say that MASH is arguably the grea...I would like to say that MASH is arguably the greatest comedy ever and raised the bar for realistic adult comedies.

The thing that gets me watching this is how much time of the video compilation features Wayne Rogers and McClean Stevenson. The first two seasons of M*A*S*H were so good and that cast was so tight. I don't want to denigrate the other cast members. But the show was funny and poignant in the first two seasons. Afterward, it became political and poignant. Thanks for the video. Right now, I'm remembering the great scene where Klinger tried to hang glide his way home.
