M*A*S*H läuft täglich auf Kabel 1. Gleich nach Star Trek: The next Generation und vor Ein Käfig voller Helden.
In der Originalversion sind übrigens Lacher eingeblendet, das finde ich sehr unpassend.

Tatsache! Ich schnall ab...ich war fest überzeugt, dass sie es durch eben dieses grottenschlechte "Käfig voller Helden" ersetzt hatten. Immer, wenn ich mal bei Kabel 1 rumsurf, läuft diese Beleidigung eines großen Klassikers der Filmgeschichte und ich ärger mich und erinnere mich wehmütig an die guten alten M*A*S*H-Doppelfolgen-Abende und nun das!
Aber kein Wunder, ich komm in der Regel gerade zuhause an, wenn M*A*S*H vorbei sein dürfte. Arrgh...selbst, wenn ich superpünktlich abhau und meinem Bienchen die Sporen geb, schaff ich es nicht bis 18.45 Uhr..ich würde auf jeden Fall die Chopper und "Suicide is painless "verpassen, das geht gar nicht!
Und ich kann mir doch nicht im Jahr 2004 einen Videorecorder kaufen..? Da lachen mich ja die Leute aus, in der Schlange bei MediaMarkt...Probleme.. *seufz*

Ich glaube M*A*S*H hatte später mehr Staffeln als der Koreakrieg selbst gedauert hat. Aber statt ner Wiederholung hätte ich lieber eine Fortsetzung, z.B. in irgendnem Provinzkaff im Irak, Wüste statt Dschungel, wo in die Luft gesprengte GIs zusammengeflickt werden, und es Tagesausflüge nach Bagdhad gibt.

Ja..vielleicht gibt es auch für alles seine Zeit und ich sollte nicht alten Kulten nachtrauern. Und außerdem hab' ich jetzt ja alle "Coupling"-Folgen auf DVD..ebenso amüsant wie lehrreich..
The three harsh truths, every man has o learn:
1. You will never become famous
2. You're fatter than you think
3. They don't keep wearing stockings
Vielleicht sollte ich einen Thread aufmachen..

Ich würde ja gerne mal diese britische Sitcom sehen:
Men behaving badly
"One of the best British sit-coms that the BBC have produced in the last twenty years."
"This series is a splendid, intelligent alternative to the dominating American sit-com culture."
" The part where Gary finds his girlfriend's diaphragm and tries fitting it in his mouth - the way little kids do orange sections - was priceless"

Gibt's hier eigentlich noch jemanden, der China Beach um Klassen besser fand als MASH?
