one more quick thought, then im off to study.
There was a MASH marathon on Saturday, and I watched it for a long time as I 'studied' and was in all my glory. But I couldn't help but notice that most of the commercials were geared towards old people (dentures, depends, medicare).
So.. is that who they think will be most likely to be watching MASH? Old people? I know quite a few people my age who watch it...
i found it funny though
oh! one of the episodes was when Radar left the show. it was SO sad! :( i think my mom was crying. i felt close to it but i didn't...
hi, my name is andi, i'm 22 and i'm addicted to MASH.

OMG Andi, I LOVE MASH!!! I watch it any chance I get!!! Nothing to be embarrassed about, and it gives me great education on which depends to wear later hehe. pay no attention to the commercials, go pee or get a snack or something. Who cares, MASH is awesome, and I have a crush on Hawkeye!!
I'm addicted to MASH too. I own the majority of the seasons on DVD.
Who do you prefer Honeycut or BJ?
I'm not embarrased, I just found that really funny.
Mal- I'm so jealous!
Hunnicutt and bj are the same person... do you mean which name i like better for him? I guess BJ.
it's a tie between BJ and Hawkeye.. i love them both! and radar, of course. :)
Ohhh I was thinking about trapper
ooh! i definiatly like BJ better than trapper!
yes, the commercials were geared towards old people because that's the demographic that watches that show the most. if you watch saturday morning cartoons, the advertisements are for cereal and toys. if you watch the real world, the ads will be for beer. they spend so much money figuring out the demographics of viewing times and the gear their ads accordingly. Read "Can't Buy My Love" by Jean Kilbourne sometime if you want a fascinating/disturbing look at the advertising industry.
i've never actually seen mash..
lex- i know they target commercials like that. but from the amount of people my age that watch it... i think they're missing a large portion of people! really, i just found it amusing. :)
meli- you are missing out!!!
