I've have watched all of the series, over and over again, it brought lots of laughter and always sadness. But it was one of the most iconic series ever. Every time I watch the finale, it brings tears to my eyes. We have lost so many of the cast over the years. But it will always remain, one of the best series ever, and one of my favourites.

Watched the whole series many times. The final episode one of the best. Full of great comedy and very moving moments!

I still tape the shows and have over 100 (all watched previously) but I still enjoy.

Have the boxed set, I love it, will watch it time and again. One of the best programs ever shown. Funny thing was it ran for years longer than the actual war.

One of the best TV shows ever made. Years later it is still funny, has not aged like some shows. Thanks MASH for funny, sad, poignant moments and human frailties we can all relate to.
