I invoke the M*A*S*H Rule.....No show should run longer than the war it portrayed.

Then the Afghan and Iraq shows are going to be pretty frackin tedious unless they are really, really good.

My daughter was a nut on “Friends” so we used netflix to watch the entire series (ten years?) in a few months. It was very revealing of why the show had to go off the air.

To wit, what was funny when the characters were 21 was NOT funny when they were 31. They didn’t really grow up.

So much for my series on Grenada.

Agreed. MASH was even longer than War & Peace.

Then M*A*S*H, started in 1972, should still be running until out next presidential election in 2016. The war represented in that show was the Cold War (of which the Korean Police Action was but a side show).
