Agree with this. Even though it had a liberal slant, I still enjoyed it because it really gave some reality in a sense to war and how much it sucks.

When Wayne Rogers left and they brought in Mike Farrell I thought it lost some edge.

Larry Linville left which kind of soften the jokes with no Frank to pick on.

Harry Morgan was a good replacement for the Colonel.

Gary Burghoff, Radar, was the only actor both in the movie and TV series.

It was a wonderfully humorous show...
Top-notch entertainment scripting...

Yes indeed, but it barely represented the true conditions during the Korean War...
