DVD Reviews of M*A*S*H - Goodbye, Farewell & Amen

DVD Review: Could Use An Editor
Summary: 5 Stars

I came upon the first four seasons in the bargain bin for $7.95 a piece and couldn't resist since that would include all of the Henry Blake episodes plus the first season with Col Potter and BJ - classic MASH and irresistible.
I bought season 11 after buying all the others in order and I thought I had seen in the store that there were extras on it. I got home and noticed there weren't any. I reasoned that MASH was good enough without all of the extras on it's own.
I saw this in the store and thought it was the same as the one I already had but cheaper ($14.95 while season Eleven is usually around $19.95) and then realized that this was the finale plus assorted extras, not season 11.

The best of the extras is a "Biography" of MASH from the Biography channel giving a pretty good timeline of MASH from book to movie to tv and the recruiting of and eventual departure of certain key members of the cast. Even the failed spin-off, "AfterMASH" is recalled here.

The 30 year Anniversary Special reunites the cast, minus Larry Linville and Mclean Stevenson who had passed on.
Also noteworthy is an earlier special hosted by Shelley Long (Diane Chambers on Cheers).

The rest of these extras are a little on the tedious side:

There are some bloopers mostly reaturing Alan Alda and Mike Farrell. These are bloopers that repeat the same scene and the same mistakes too many times and should've included the other cast members as well.

A segment of PSA's (Public Service Announcements) for charities featuring Mike Farrell which made me wonder if the dvd player was stuck on repeat. Each PSA is practically a carbon copy of the one before it and when shown back to back the effect is almost annoying.

Also each cast member names their favorite episodes. Usually this is where they first joined the others or where the writers began to give certain charcters more lines. Hot Lips engagement...BJ's first day...Potter's arrival...etc

The trivia quiz is really dumb with the easiest questions you could imagine. No challenge whatsoever.

The main complaint about putting all of these features on all in one set is overkill. The interviews here within are compiled from anywhere from the early days of the show until 30 years later and don't appear to be put together for the dvd. As a result many of these interviews say the same thing.

Be prepared for the cast of your favorite show to give numerous interviews in which the main point that is stressed was the way the show uniquely combined comedy and drama, which may be commendable but after it's repeated several times gets a bit monotonous. Also the development of each character is discussed somewhat at length and this too can become a bit much. But stil, overall it's much better than anything else before or since and maybe they have reason to pat themselves on the back.
