Based on the legendary 1970’s movie of the same title, MASH – the series, was an instant success, much like its big-screen sibling.

During its 11 years of air-time, the popular TV show managed to capture the same essence of the flick, a noted satirical standpoint on US militarism, and it will forever remain as one of the best movie-to-TV transitions that were ever created.

The cast was completely changed, but that didn’t bother the audience, who whole-heartedly accepted the chance of watching their favorite characters and their shenanigans on a daily basis.

The cult-classic and award-winning movie was so well imagined that it transcended the “screen barrier” and changed television as the world in the 1970’s knew it.
