Season 7, Episode 10
10/10
Captures the Humanity and the Horror of War
5 November 2019
This episode is completely unlike any other Mash episode. It's not very funny, instead it's sobering, heartfelt, and completely amazing. The way that it was done, with the actors looking directly at the camera (it's told from the point of view of a wounded patient, who is able to look at them but not converse), makes you feel as if they're talking directly to you. It's almost impossible to watch this and not imagine that it's you who's lying there, severely wounded, with the Mash caretakers tending to you. The little bits of humanity, the way that they try to bring cheer to the patients, the compassion they show...absolutely top notch and brilliant! A must see for sure!
