With age comes wisdom. I was a big fan of the show at one time but some episodes became unwatchable over time. My dad fought in the Korean War and was wounded, though he rarely spoke about the “conflict.” In my own way, back when I was really young, I looked at the show as a vehicle of sorts into certain aspects of the way (the extreme cold for example). Hawkeye (Alda) once called a pro-US/South Korean person a “son of a bitch” in an episode (IIRC, Hawkeye supported the North Korean) and scenes such as those were eye-openers.
