@ horaciosi, The song at the end of the final episode was the original version of Suicide Is Painless. The MASH theme song is an instrumental version of the same song.
This takes me back to my elementary school years. I remember falling asleep on the couch while my father watched this show. Amazing what memories something as simple as a TV theme can bring back!!
in a dream i command a mash unit at age 20 i look up at frank burns i say frank your patients are better than u despite who there doctor is officer arrest this man for loitering around an operating table and impersonating a doctor. frank looks back at me and says yuk yuk yuk i pull down my mask and stick my tongue out and say i'll see u in detetion if teacher doesnt get us first
never liked the show much (cuz it was about war :( ...) and sometimes the song would make me shudder just at the thought of the subject matter, but i still kinda liked it... i liked to listen to it as i went to sleep and some of the others mentioned... now it really brings back childhood memories. isn't it funny how something as simple as a tv theme song can do that?

Man I freaking H A T E this show... man as soon as this damn song came on, I would bolt running away from the TV screen...what show do you know that gets kids away from tv. I shudder when I hear the first 9 notes of this theme song. ugghh
And the MASH colors! mud green brackish brown and a peep of off white... it's worse than the Wind in the Willows cartoon from back in the day!
i remember when i was a lil kid back in the 90's as soon as the Fox 11 News where at 11 PM that shows used to come out i was like man i wish they'll put the simpsons lol good times lol
Yeah, i remember staying up late nights before school the next day too, hearing the MASH theme. God time flies! Seems like it was only days ago, but it was really back in the late 80's, re-runs of MASH on TV back then. I did watch Who's The Boss? an hour or two before bed time. The 80's had MANY shows...GOOD shows. What's on TV now?!? LOL , well, nadda, zip, zilch, nothing! ...sadly. :(
@001GenLee Totally agree. I used to watch those shows or stay up sitting next to my bedroom door waiting to hear the openings before I actually went to bed. Man, i thought i was the only one with those memories. Todays shows? Well, let's just say i dont watch any TV anymore. None. Sad thing. i miss this stuff.
@Shamrock1221 Same here. I spent about 15 minutes searching through all the ones with singing, all the amateur covers, all the ones recorded badly from the TV before I finally found your excellent effort. Thanks, LittleMissBeatty. I've been wanting to hear this again for a few years, now. Nostalgia is a powerful thing. /sniff sniff. I think I need to have a lie-down for a while...
Right?!?!? Whenever I hear this song I close my eyes and it is as if I'm back at my aunt's house 30 some years ago! I can see everything in that place as clear as if I was there again - once I got so into it when I opened my eyes it almost weirded me out.
@cootieof03 I remember when I was a kid I hated when this song came on cause that meant it was my bed time cause I had school the next day. This song brings back old memories.

I remember I hated this show as a kid. My mom would want me to watch reruns with her (as I am a 90s kid) and I would ask her to change the channel
Then one night, I couldn't sleep and so I watched the TV Land Marathon...I now own every episode on DVD
Who knew insomnia would change my life so much...

Nice try but the names look amateurishly written! No need for "Sydney (Sidney?) Freedman" in opening! David Ogden Stiers is bad in real life!
