M*A*S*H redux. Sign up for another stint with the 4077th. This three-disc set contains all 24 episodes from the superb second season (1973-74) of the series ranked by TV Guide as among the top 25 television shows of all time. The season opener, "Divided We Stand," is a deft reintroduction to these now iconic characters: bleeding-heart surgeon Hawkeye Pearce (Alan Alda in his signature role), kindred misfit spirit Trapper John (Wayne Rogers), clueless administrator Henry Blake (McLean Stevenson), buttoned-up Frank Burns (Larry Linville), and unbuttoned head nurse "Hot Lips" (Loretta Swit). In this episode, a visiting psychiatrist evaluates the 4077th to determine whether the unit "can function as a team." His evaluation can serve as this series' mission statement: "These impossible people are in an impossible place doing totally impossible things. They're mad--quite mad." M*A*S*H experienced no sophomore slump from its Emmy Award-winning first season. It continued to subvert sitcom convention with multiple-story episodes such as "Radar's Report." Scenes in the operating room play without a laugh track (this DVD gives viewers the option of watching entire episodes minus the intrusive chuckles and guffaws). M*A*S*H also tackled such issues as racism ("Dear Dad... Three," "L.I.P.--Local Indigenous Personnel"), homophobia ("George"), and war atrocities (Hawkeye and Trapper try to get the Army to take responsibility for the accidental shelling of a South Korean village). Not that M*A*S*H forgot how to be funny. "Five O'Clock Charlie" and "For Want of a Boot" are strictly for laughs. Hawkeye and Hot Lips memorably exchange flu shots in "Carry On, Hawkeye." Loyal viewers will note the emergence of several supporting characters, including Jamie Farr's Klinger and William Christopher's Father Mulcahy. One also sees the (to some) unfortunate transformation of Gary Burghoff's savvy, crackerjack clerk Radar into a naïve innocent. Allan Arbus makes his first appearance as compassionate psychiatrist Dr. Sidney Friedman in "Radar's Report." This second-season set is representative of why M*A*S*H was a cut above. --Donald Liebenson

MASH is by far one of the best series of it's time. Great humouristic style and simple to watch, it makes for great weekends cuddled up on the couch and having a laugh.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great show - great value! Jan 22 2003
By Chris
Format:DVD
I used to collect the M*A*S*H shows on videotape from Columbia House many years back. I didn't imagine that one day I'd be able to buy a complete 24-episode season of the show on a much better format (DVD) for practically the same money as each of Columbia House's 3-episode VHS tapes. Season two is even better than season one. My favorites include: "The Trial of Henry Blake,""The Incubator,""Crisis,""Five O'Clock Charlie,""Divided We Stand,""Hot Lips and Empty Arms," and "For the Want of a Boot." The only real downfall to this collection is, like the first season, there are no bonus features or material of any kind. Also, Fox is taking their time releasing these collections. It will probably be at least 6 or 7 years to get them all out. I guess it's worth the wait.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a bare-bones set, but the price is right Oct 31 2002
Format:DVD
As I said in my previous review of Season One, I am absolutely DELIGHTED to finally have the MASH episodes uncut and in order. I'm collecting the whole set. However, at the rate they are releasing these, I'll probably be on Social Security before I fnally have all eleven seasons. Come on, production folks, let's speed things up!

The DVD set itself is pretty bare-bones. There are 3 disks in a nice plastic case, but no extra whistles and bells. There's not even a sound track for the menu -- a minor complaint, but, since each episode goes back to the menu at the end, it would be nice to have something else besides silence to fill the gap while I decide what to watch next. I would also like a "play all" option so I could watch continuously without having to reach for the remote. On the other hand, the price is very reasonable, compared to a lot of other TV shows. That could be why there's no extra material. So, I'm still giving this five stars, because MASH is THE BEST sitcom ever produced!
