look all i'm saying is if you give mash a chance with a very grounded sense of the time it was airing in and the pressures it was rebelling against and the brand-new trends it was setting, there will be a point, maybe a few episodes in or maybe a few seasons in, where you suddenly go "okay, yeah, i see why this show became such a popcultural juggernaut that the finale is STILL TO THIS DAY the most-watched tv show episode ever"
#like. literally only superbowls ever come close to the numbers the mash finale pulled. that's how powerful the mash brainworms are#i was catching season 7 episodes on a retro rerun channel before i started watching it in earnest from season 1 onward#2 episodes a night and i think by the third night i was like ''uh oh. fucking uh oh. i can feel the mycelium growing in my cortex''#shebbz shoutz#mash
