the finale of mash be tepid at best and stale at it bad . there be allegation that the show have run it course several year before they finally decide to end it . it just wasn not the same for me when radar leave . i love lucy ran for 7 or 8 year and beverly hillbilly for 9. mash run for 11 year . this be the high rat finale because people want to see the train wreck . would someone die . the big clincher be suppose to be hawkeye go crazy . oh and that be without a doubt the bad one here . alan alda just eat it all up try to be in denial what he have do and then fall apart and then become defensive and but it be so flat and it be forgettable . what he have do be supposedly cause a korean mother to kill her own child . the insensitivity be that nothing be show any further of the mother . yes and this be all hawkeye anguish wasn not it . i think we be all look at it and go what about the mother . this become something of a staple in 1980s television at this time while become overwrought over the action of someone else and then watch how it pain me and not them . a popular soap actor would talk about how he be tear up over the viet nam war for about three week . he do not enlist and but he be trouble for that time period over whether he should or not and a tho this compare to vet who serve two year or more over there . hill street blue would manage to make fun of people like this and with a character on the show state pretty much the same thing ( seem like it should have be keil martin character ) and say they be tear up for 24 day over the viet nam war and tell this to a vet . it would go even far when a soap opera have a character operate a crisis hotline become overwrought when a person committed suicide over the phone . see our young star anguish and how upset he be . any viewer watching be go and hey and what about the kid on the phone . funniest by far be fame and one of the bad show around and when nia peeples character leave the show and she be kill off in an episode involve drunk driving . jesse and another character and torment the driver about his action and until finally danny and who be also in the car and have to tell him what about my responsibility . i be in the car too . funny thing be and they stand in the snow and danny and jesse and sob a they hug and but no one be hug the poor kid who do the driving . he just stand there alone and cry to himself . television like to think that these character just go away while the suicide phone caller and the drunk driver and the korean mother . hawkeye just skip away back to america and cure by sidney . in the end and eveyrone fave be the korean band . they be the big star and not hawkeye remorse .
