Its series finale is still the most watched live tv event in history. They had 106 million viewers, estimated over 60% of all US households! Calling it a lesser known or obscure show is an objectively false statement lol
It holds up pretty well too. I’ve been watching it for the past 2 years on an off and I’m on season 5. Sometimes it meanders but then you get slammed with 3 great episodes in succession. I don’t want to skip trash though because MASH is my before bed TV that can run in the background.
I don’t think it went under the radar of the TV studio because it ran for 11 years and got a Golden Globe for the best comedy series.
[edit] I took the bait, didn’t I? This thread is now about MASH. Well played.
And the finale is still the most watched program of all time (minus superbowls)
And the Apollo 11 moon landing, and the Olympics, and the world cup finals…
Moon landing beats everything with an asterisk. No olympics above mash at all, and world cup doesn’t even rank.

Suppose this is a us centric view, but then again it’s a us show
Most people (including me) are not from the US. :-)
