On this day, 41 years ago, the M*A*S*H spin-off series AfterMASH debuted on CBS! The hour-long pilot episode followed Col. Potter, Father Mulcahy, Klinger, and Soon-Lee after they returned to the United States from Korea. By the end of the episode, they were reunited in Missouri at a veterans’ hospital.

I saw a post one time about someone always looking in the background of MASH episodes to try and see Father Mulcahy to see what he’s doing, and now I do it constantly.
It’s just so fun and he’s pretty easy to spot in crowd scenes because of his hat so it’s a fun little game
I do notice pretty much immediately if he’s not in OR though and it always makes me sad cause I’m like “where is he?? where’s the boy??”
This post has no point I just felt like sharing the fact that I essentially play I Spy while I watch MASH but it’s always Father Mulcahy
[image id: a three-page digital comic about characters from the TV show MASH, illustrated by "druid-for-hire." On page 1, frank burns squints at Hawkeye from a short distance, who is next to Trapper, who is reading a newspaper that obscures his face. "Pierce," Burns asks, "what's on your face?" Hawkeye turns to face him, revealing a septum piercing. "what's what, Frank?" he asks. Shocked and affronted by this breach in army regulations, he shouts, "I can't!! Believe you!! It's not enough for you to disagrace the army uniform by being out of it all the time? You have to go and--and do that! You look like a punk! Or a cow!"
On page 2, Hawkeye, unbothered, replies "Y'know, Frank, I'm finally living up to the Pierce name. I was thinking about going for some ear tag earrings. Maybe I can get a nurse to pull my udders." Frank howls, "That's disgusting!" Turning to Trapper he shouts, "Did you have anything to do with this, McIntyre?" Trapper pulls down the newspaper to reveal that he's wearing three septum rings and says, "I sure did! He stole my look!"
On page 3, Frank says "You're both terrible. Both of your butts are going on report!" while Hawkeye takes out his apparently fake septum ring behind his back. "Report for what, Frank?" he asks; Frank turns to see that the piercing is now missing. "Yeah, what's the matter, Frank?" Trapper says, whose piercing is suddenly missing as well. Frank storms off, yelling "Neither of you can pull the wool over my eyes!! Just wait until General Barker hears about this!" Some time later, Frank is standing next to General Barker, pointing at Hawk. "General, I'm telling you, the hole is THERE!" he shouts. "Go and take a look in those nostrils for yourself!" There is a long and awkward pause. The General did not like that. Hawkeye remarks, "Gee Frank, take a girl to dinner first." end id]
