    Multiple M*A*S*H References on Last Night’s Community

    Friday, January 15th, 2010 at 6:47 pm

    Last night’s episode of NBC’s Community (“Investigative Journalism”) was filled with references to M*A*S*H. It was hilarious at times. I wasn’t the only one who saw the episode; Mrs. Frank Burns e-mailed me this morning saying “MASH References Galore!” I’ve embedded most of the references through Hulu, although the videos will only work in the United States and will disappear eventually. You can find a comprehensive analysis of the episode here, along with another reference from an earlier episode of Community (“Home Economics,” originally broadcast November 5th, 2009) that I watched but forgot to mention.

    Plans for 2010

    Thursday, January 7th, 2010 at 3:38 pm

    For those who haven’t noticed, I’ve been neglecting M*A*S*H, Finest Kind for the past few months. I’ve been focusing most of my attention instead on my other website, Television Obscurities. But that doesn’t mean I’ve given up on this site. The Name That Episode game is going strong, with new rounds posted twice a week. I hope to start working on a new article about M*A*S*H on VHS and DVD later this month. And I have enough entries to update My First M*A*S*H and Memorable Moments. I may also analyze the music in another episode for Music of M*A*S*H.

    I’ve been kicking around a new feature for quite a while and might finally get it off the ground during the next few months. And I will be starting a giveaway in February or March. It will be open to residents of the United States and the prize will be one pack of 1982 Donruss M*A*S*H trading cards. I still have to finalize how the giveaway will be run but depending on how it goes I may run giveaways several times during the year.

    Finally, I need a new slogan for the top of the site. “Celebrating Ten Years on the Internet :: 1999-2009″ no longer fits. Any ideas?
