Merge

There seems to be a duplicate of this page at After M*A*S*H. Perhaps these two pages should be merged. --Micpp 06:21, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I removed the following text from After M*A*S*H and made it a redirect. I don't see anything there that isn't in AfterMASH:

After M*A*S*H was a 1983 CBS television series, a short-lived spin-off to the successful M*A*S*H. It featured the characters of Sherman T. Potter (Harry Morgan), Maxwell Q. Klinger (Jamie Farr), and Father John Patrick Francis Mulcahy (William Christopher).

After M*A*S*H attempted to continue in the tradition of M*A*S*H to hopefully obtain similar success. Unfortunately, without the performances of the strongest characters from its predecessor and without the balance of the tension created by the war background story, it was generally found to be unmotivated and only weakly interesting.

Another spinoff, Trapper John, M.D. (1979-1986), was more successful probably because it did include one of the stronger characters, did not mimic the original so closely, and reached a better balance between humorous and serious content.

Internal contradiction

Two paragraphs contradict one another. Was Father Mulcahy's deafness cured or never mentioned? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.21.184.95 (talk • contribs) 02:46, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

His deafness was surgically corrected in the pilot. Pat Berry 16:57, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Setting

It's not really clear where it was set. --Jnelson09 01:40, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Article has a weird attitude.

This article reads like it was written by an aspiring critic. There's way too much emphasis on the fact that the show didn't succeed like M*A*S*H* did (Duh, it's a spinoff, of course it didn't). The writer even seems to take satisfaction in the show's failure. --63.25.236.17 (talk) 20:48, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

• Agreed. This article has significant NPOV issues and should probably be rewritten fully. The criticisms made and conclusions drawn easily cross into original research. 74.74.65.213 (talk) 07:00, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

22 Episodes First Season?

There seems to be no episode 2E20 anywhere. Was this one produced and never aired? JoeD80 (talk) 23:06, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

I found the episode in the Copyright Office's database. Going by its publication date for its air date. Can anyone confirm if this episode ("By the Book") aired or is it another lost episode? JoeD80 (talk) 23:26, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

The episode is on YouTube(along with the rest of them): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qYVxss5SN3M&list=PLLtFfRyN3QnsFxWwEAACK6SbRLeaHmFTR&index=19&pp=iAQB Heat8888 (talk) 05:25, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

This was wrong. I just assumed the episodes were numbered correctly by the person who posted them. They weren't.

Also, all the other episodes have been removed from YouTube except for 1 or 2 posted by someone else. I hope that wasn't my fault. Heat8888 (talk) 11:06, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

¶ Very nice to have this article, I tried watching the series but missed some episodes AND it never went into reruns. I missed the explanation of why Klinger was on trial. Does anyone know the name that was given to the baby?? Sussmanbern (talk) 22:18, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Article 4

The link in Article 4 (i.e., to bayraider.tv) appears to be dead (as in empty). The domain is registered to a Evgeny Kunshin in postal code 350062 (RU). The domain is kept current since 2010 but there does not seem to be any content left (even at the base domain address). I am not familiar with Wikipedia policies in this area so I leave it to a more experienced agent. JimScott (talk) 16:27, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
