The Blacklist is definately worth a look!

We started watching WWII in HD last night. Amazing footage and really gives you a more in depth feel both because it's in color and the way they are going about presenting it. I'm not seeing the need for the merging of the voice actors with the original soldiers, unless they're are coming up on some who can't speak intelligibly about it any longer.

Man.... I wish I would have bought Netflix stock when it was cheap.

Netflix finally added the M*A*S*H TV series(seasons 1-5 out of 12). Lots of binge watching to do, love the show.

Me and wwharton were just talking about the Flash. Granted that series isn't on there yet. The first 2 seasons of Arrow are on there. I personally liked the first season 10X more than the second. The first season has a very dark appeal and is intense. But it cuts down a lot in the second season because of something that happens in the first season finale.

Probably the better seasons any way. Hawkeye and Trapper goofing on Frank was always a good showing. Henry Blake added to the comedy angle whereas Potter was too military to keep in flavor with the movie. Never cared for the latter cast.

You didn't like Potter and BJ Hunnicutt? They were actually on 8 of the 11 seasons. Winchester was more than an adequate replacement for Frank Burns, creating a more worthy adversary for Hawkeye & company. (IMO)

Whenever Alan Alda took over writing some episodes, it tended to get a bit too serious at times, but still some good episodes from later seasons.

Nope. I thought once Trapper and Col. Blake were out, the zaniness that IS MASH was gone. Hunnicutt wasn't funny.... he set up Alan Alda. Burns didn't really encompass what he was in the movie, but for TV it was good. In Winchester they got to make fun of the snob versus the buffoon.

Sorry.

No need to be sorry, that's your opinion. I thought both "versions" of MASH delivered.

It's not like Trapper John wasn't a setup man for Hawkeye too. Wayne Rogers left the role because he didn't want to be Robin to Hawkeye's Batman.

But Hawkeye deserved a setup man, and Trapper John and BJ were great at it.

I enjoyed Winchester's wit to Burns twit, but, it's just an opinion.

Col Potter, I've talked to everyone in camp, and that is a first for me.

Klinger, I've heard snappier comebacks from a bowl of Rice Crispies.

Burns was an entertaining cartoon.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix

Of course I preferred Blake..... what the hell do you want... I was 10 years old at the time! I like the Brady Bunch and Happy Days also at the time.

People who have seen neither the movie or the show should watch the movie first so they are not disappointed. The movie Hawkeye was much more irreverant and snarky compared to TV Hawkeye, though understandably so with the way TV censors were at that time. One thing I always liked about Alda is that he clearly borrowed a delivery style from Groucho Marx.

Re-watching the opening segment for TV, that was well done. I remember that about Wayne Rogers leaving the show. It's also funny that Gary Burghoff was the only actor from the movie who made it into the TV show. No one else could have played that role so well.
