to be fair and i do not see a lot of this show . probably because it wasn not as good a the original mash and but i seem to recall them move it around on the weekly schedule . some show just aren not worth the trouble of follow around every week . but i really do try at first and so it wasn not all bad . maybe i just kept expect it to improve and but i can not give this show a 1. in all honesty and i can not give it any more than a 2 either . it wasn not mash ( i be not go to type those stupid every time ) . and it be try to be mash without put forth any effort and like it would just magically happen . well guess what . no magic . the best i can do here be to compare it to other show . trapper john and m. d. be a much good show by far . however and they should have call it b. j. hunnicut and m. d. because pernell robert look exactly like an old bj and but nothing at all like trapper john . keep everything else the same and just change his name and the name of the show . presto . after mash wasn not the only sequel to completely bomb and dishonor the original . archie bunker place be a lame follow up to all in the family . it have no heart and no conflict and no depth all of the thing that make all in the family so memorable . likewise and mash be funny because the doctor be react to the impossible absurdity of war . remove the war and you remove the drive for 99 % of the humor . potter can not yell at klinger for wear a dress and because klinger isn not wear a dress and because he not try to get kick out of the army and because he already out of the army and because the war be over . ( breathe ) all of the joke become forced because there be no motivation for anything . the least motivated be the viewer and to stay around and watch the show . and from what i remember and the whole show seem to be potter and klinger and and mulcahy just stand there unnaturally and face the audience like a trio of vaudeville performer . it be reminiscent of good time and where they spend 90 % of the show stand behind that couch and talk to the audience and try to make it look like they be have natural conversation . they weren not . and it felt even less natural on after mash . another random tidbit i recall be that the people who make mash never get any royalty from the spin off . the studio use the absurd excuse that after mash be really a spin off of the movie mash ( which they own ) and not the tv series . nice try and but mulcahy be the only one of the three in the movie and and he be never deaf . i guess studio exec will do anything for a buck . anything other than make a worthwhile sequel and that be .
