017 – Remaking M*A*S*H?

Will M*A*S*H ever get the Jimmy Kimmel revival treatment? If so, who would play these iconic roles? That’s just one of the many subjects Jeff & Ryan tackle in this episode of MASH Matters. Other topics include Ryan’s favorite M*A*S*H character, the time Jeff played Hawkeye(!), and what Igor REALLY did when he came home after the war. 

M*A*S*H Notes

A behind the scenes look at the All In The Family/The Jeffersons remake.

Guess which M*A*S*H episode made this list of “25 Episodes That Changed Television.” 

Bill Hader’s Alan Alda impression is truly a thing of beauty.

What a surprise: The M*A*S*H set was more fun than Dragnet’s.
