The build-up, behind-the-scenes moments, changes to the script, the gut punch ending and the audience reactions. We also talked for a while about the future of MASH, the Pros and Cons of the cast ...
Col. Flagg has returned! Despite the Scooby Doo music, Anthony and Ethan find some interesting things to talk about in this episode. Mainly, the implication behind Hawkeye and Trapper's silly little appendix gag.
