    On Season six, still the best show going, 2008-08-05
Season 6 is a great seaon, not as good as season 5 (the best in the series), but still a good season. After seeing Season 5 it would be an easy temptation to be dissappointed with 6, but keep in mind that 5 was perfection, and with faces changing you have to give 6 a chance to grow on you, and it will.

br /Frank is gone, and Charles is here. Charles is a great counterpart to Hawkeye and BJ in that he is just as smart and capable as they are, only in a different kind of way.
br /
br /Radar is seen less and less in this season, and it's a shame. Klinger and Mulcahy start to have a more prominent role in the series, and I think for the most part that's a good thing.
br /
br /The season has a lot of great shows: Fade out- fade in, Last Laugh, Winchester tapes, Comrades in Arms(a two part show that gives you what you always wanted: Hawkeye and Hot lips), Major Topper (probably the best of the season)
br /
br /This is certainly not the best season in the series, probably not even in the top half, but the series was so strong even the weaker seasons overshadow many of the other popular tv shows of all time.

    The addition of Charles was the best thing that happened to the later MASH seasons, 2007-01-10
This was Charles Emerson Winchester's first season (wonderfully played by David Odgen Stiers, a great character actor who is still doing wonderful work today). He replaced Frank Burns, who was quickly becoming a caricature in the 4th and 5th seasons. I ended up liking Charles much more than I probably should have. The audience was supposed to dislike him because he was a snob, an egomaniac, and a blue blood who stuck his nose up at the rest of the camp. Yet, he was a brilliant surgeon who knew about great wine, food, and art. In these later episodes, BJ and Hawkeye grew increasingly PC, preachy, and sanctimonious. Charles used to rib them endlessly, but I ended up liking his upper class, blue blood insults on Hawk and BJ, because I disliked Hawkeye and BJ so much. Charles was not as gung ho as Burns, as was much more human as the war (and seasons) progressed. He really was the only character who seemed to grow as the series went on. Hawkeye and BJ continued in the same preachy vein, and none of the other characters really ever grew out of their initial portrayals, so Charles was definitely the best part of the later MASH seasons.
