NOTE: In this series, "closing shots" means "the cleanest full shot right before the fade to black effect happens," OR "the cleanest full shot right before the freeze frame." It's a pain in the ass to try to find it frame by frame... backwards. Why did I decide to do this?!?!?!
Season 5 // Season 4 // Season 3 // Season 2 // Season 1
Never gonna forget showing my roommate MASH after explaining it as a Korean War drama/comedy, then watching it in silence till the end where she turns to me and says that wasn’t a K-drama
thinking about "we're always surprised that she can be kind" thinking about "if i locate your heart do i get a finder's fee" thinking about "where i grew up we ran naked in the snow" thinking about margaret sitting at radar's bedside reading to him thinking about "i'm worried about you, doctor" thinking about how she dotes on frank as his lover and is so sweet to the kids but to everyone else it only comes out when someone is sick. wondering if margaret becomes kind to people when they're ill because she's a nurse or if she's a nurse because it allows her to be kind...
I will not rest until the rest of MASHblr is as insane about the 80’s office AU ads as I am
So I wanted to compile the ads so I could just post one video and not like a whole YouTube playlist, but I quickly found out that there are SO MANY MASH IBM ads! So I decided to leave out ones that weren’t office related and were more ‘Alan Alda puts on a bunch of different hats’ and ‘Jamie Farr repeatedly tries and fails to enter a building’ and I actually had to cut one ad of Alan and some kids in a classroom that I wanted to put in cuz I think it’s cute.
But anyway, I am always gnawing at the bars of my enclosure thinking of the universe these ads take place in. Like, who flooded the office? Did Trapper ever get to go to Hawaii? Where’s BJ? (JK he’s at a gay picnic)
I feel like there’s a rich vein here and us weirdos, sickos, and perverts need to buckle down and really dig into the potential for office shenanigans.
