Who was this show aimed at? I'm almost 40 and was never in the target audience. I always understood it was good but couldn't understand the overall appeal
I'm 27 and fell in love with it when I was 17. I've rewatched it dozens of times.
Used to love it as a kid maybe 12-15 when it was on air after school. Think of it like the office. Character driven soap opera/sit com with loveable characters and sometimes funny sometimes sad stories. It was pretty well written and didn't shy away from the heavy stuff sometimes. Also it was an allegory for Vietnam was was happening atvthe same time.
>It was pretty well written and didn't shy away from the heavy stuff sometimes. Also it was an allegory for Vietnam was was happening atvthe same time
Honestly pretty disgusting how pro-asiatic and anti-American it became in the later seasons
It was always like that though
anti imperialist isn't anti American.
>Who was this show aimed at?
Boomers who were young adults in the 1970s. What kind of question is this? Why would you be the target demographic?
What do you mean the target demographic wasn't people who weren't born yet?
What is this shit? Looks like maybe boomer Mash. All I know from the end is him making the zipperhead kill her baby lol.

I always had to turn it. I was incapable of giving it a fair shake.
This tilted so many people back in the day, but I love it. Just like the show, it subverted expectations and gave rise to the fan theory that hundreds of network TV shows were linked in this kids mind.
It pissed off a lot of people, understandably, but I thought it was incredibly powerful and poignant when you found out he was choosing to leap the whole time
what is this? sell me on it.
Quantum Leap. He builds a way to leap into the bodies of people in the past and the only way he can possibly get home is to essentially fulfill the destiny of the person he leaps into. In one episode he leaps into a literal moron.
i'll give it a watch, thanks.
Worth a look. The main character, Sam Beckett, is one of the *goodest* characters ever written, up there with Dale Cooper and Superman.
>an anon gets to experience Quantum Leap for the first time
mildly envious. QL is absolute Bakula-kino. do not watch the shit DEI reboot that came out recently
You might enjoy this thing what I made recently: https://youtu.be/97Cpx1DKKAE
I watched bits of it when I was a kid but too young to really appreciate it. It's a shame that with TV shows like this it's basically impossible to get into by watching from episode 1.
Why is that?
When there's 600 gorillion episodes it takes discipline to even finish it. Even if you follow some guide to skip bad episodes or start from a certain season or something, it's still a 100+ hour commitment. And it's not the same experience as catching it when it was on
This is why I'll never watch Legend of the Galactic Heroes
>b-but it's the best show ever
No, it's 150+ episodes long.
You'll know if you're going to enjoy a series a couple of episodes in, at that point you enjoy taking time every once in a while to do a small binge watch. I don't see the issue
I literally cannot sit down to watch a TV show. I can read a book or watch a movie, but an episode of a TV show is just an awkward amount of time for often very little payoff. If I'm gonna spend 3 hours watching a show I might as well watch a movie.
I've never enjoyed a show so much I knew that I'm willing to spend 100, 150 hours with it over the next few months.
Honestly I'm the same way, and maybe it's a bad mindset but why would I invest my precious time off from work watching something that may or may not be worth it to watch when I could just play vidya and guarantee joy?
How do you know you'll enjoy that video game? Unless you're a hypersperg that's been playing the same game for 5+ years
> Unless you're a hypersperg that's been playing the same game for 5+ years
uh..
Rookie numbers
>path of bald fricking moron
cringe
A video game requires some sort of active participation from you to continue playing it. Even if after a while it becomes a turn-off-your-brain-and-kill-things kinda game, you still have to DO something by controlling a character. TV you just sit there and watch it
i've been playing the same game for 22 years
>5 years
You are like a little baby
It's not a bad mindset. TV is a waste of time. At least with movies you can theoretically learn something about filmmaking.
Best ending to a show ever.
what's the story with 6 feet under?
it's a funeral house and it has dexter in it, right?
It's a show about death, basically. Every episode is about a death and explores that death.
is it pozzed or watchable?
I don't want to experience homosexualry
wikipedia calls it an LGBTQ drama
avoid at all cost
The first season is good and then it gets worse with each succeeding season to the point that by the time that you experience the finale you're happy to see everyone die.
Ironically the gays are the only likable characters in the whole thing.
Six Feet Under
The Leftovers
The Shield
Does MASH have any cool battle scenes or is it all drama in the camp?
The episode when the head nurse is shot at but heroically her foot locker leaps in the way and takes the bullets for her.
do they kill that motherfricker who shot at her at the very least?
?si=oMMy57v5_gmIRyNh
wow.
Very few scenes involve battle but the few that do are very well done and make you feel the danger and tension.
Sopranos *fade to black*
I love old comedies but MASH never made me laugh. And half the eps seemed to be sad.
you will never have an ethostate
You wil never have socialisted healthcare.
The DCAU went all out on Epilogue they even brought back The fricking Phantasm
I've always loved the final episode of Friday Night Lights. Such an incredible show. Minus s2

>makes the most successful ad in history and launches him into capitalist godhood where he can marry and cheat and divorce a thousand times over and it just doesn’t fricking matter
Unironically the ending changed my life
It's a feel good ending because the Korean war is the only good thing America has done in the last 100 years. South Korea is a lovely country.
No, it's a bittersweet ending
I learned a lot about the Korean war from Gran Torino:
?t=92
>South Korea is a lovely country
No its a westernized hellhole with a social gender divide as bad as China's after their mass female baby killings from western feminism
>t. fricking gay moron
they find unmarked graves to this day from the ~~*korean war*~~
I watched that episode when it aired. I remember the reports the next day how the water table dipped all over the country because everyone used the bathroom at the same time when it was over.
What other woke show will have a character named "spearchucker"?
If I like TNG, DS9, VOY, BSG, and SG:A, am I likely to enjoy Babylon 5?
yes, it's the show DS9 ripped off.
Grand. Thanks.
God no. The only characters that wrapped up nicely were G'kar and Londo. Otherwise season 5 just felt like a big stinky shit on everyone. Plus the season 4 finale of "Actually none of this matters and in 200 years Earth will taken over by chuds and will be nuked back to the stone age :)" Fricking overrated show.
Mash is so fricking boring. I hated the setting and I really hate dramedies. Also, why are these old fricks in the military? The main guy is like 50.
Give me Gilligan's Island or get off my TV
>why are these old fricks in the military
doctors
Wait, do people actually think this was a good show? Lmao
Am I supposed to know what this is, boomer?
Just name the show next time, or your alzheimer ass already forgot?
I thought The Shield and Scrubs had nice endings
Never watched Mash
