I think I watched every episode of M.A.S.H. when I served overseas, in South Korea. Oddly apropos.
Which is quite the thing because it was before "binging shows" or even VCRs.
It was the daily "social event" of the common room.... all the husbands and wives gathered for cards and TV... which meant M.A.S.H.
My father fought in that war back then... in the same country I was serving in... so M.A.S.H took on an extra dimension of meaning to me.
Oh the stories and locations...
