Mash, Season 2

The entire second season of the satirical US television series (and spin-off from Robert Altman’s 1970 film), which depicts the crazy antics and the sexual adventures of Captain ‘Hawkeye’ Pierce (Alan Alda), Captain ‘Trapper’ John McIntyre (Wayne Rogers), Major ‘Hotlips’ Houlihan (Loretta Swit), Major Frank Burns (Larry Linville) and Corporal ‘Radar’ O’Reilly (Gary Burghoff).

(Local Indigenous Personnel)’, ‘The Trial of Henry Blake’, ‘Dear Dad…Three’, ‘The Sniper’, ‘Carry On Hawkeye’, ‘The Incubator’, ‘Deal Me Out’, ‘Hot Lips and Empty Arms’, ‘Officers Only’, ‘Henry in Love’, ‘For Want of a Boot’, ‘Operation Noselift’, ‘The Chosen People’, ‘As You Were’, ‘Crisis’, ‘George’, ‘Mail Call’ and ‘A Smattering of Intelligence’.
