Script Spotlight 51: “The Incubator”

After wrapping up my 2025 rewatch of M*A*S*H last month, I had to go back to an alternate method of finding scripts to review each month. For the last eleven months, I have reviewed a script in the season I watched as part of the rewatch. December is a holiday month, but I have alreadyContinue reading “Script Spotlight 51: “The Incubator””

Script Spotlight 50: “Strange Bedfellows”

It is already November, which means that I am in the final season of my M*A*S*H rewatch. It has been quite the journey rewatching M*A*S*H this year, and I am looking forward to finishing the series and sharing my thoughts later this month. Meanwhile, I knew I had to find an episode from season elevenContinue reading “Script Spotlight 50: “Strange Bedfellows””

Script Spotlight 49: “Blood and Guts”

As we enter fall, I am beginning to run out seasonal based episodes to review each month! In 2025, though, I have been rewatching one season of M*A*S*H per month. For season ten, I looked through the list of episodes and picked one at random. The winner was “Blood and Guts” (10×12). I knew theContinue reading “Script Spotlight 49: “Blood and Guts””

Script Spotlight 48: “Tell It to the Marines”

In the early 2000s, M*A*S*H aired in syndication on the cable network FX. I watched daily and kept track of the episodes that aired. I had a binder with the names of episodes, and I would note when they aired. That rewatch and binder is how I memorized the episodes titles, but it was alsoContinue reading “Script Spotlight 48: “Tell It to the Marines””

Script Spotlight 47: “Life Time”

As I scanned the list of episodes of season eight for this month’s review, one jumped out at me. I had to double check because I was sure I already wrote about it. However, I did not, so it was an easy choice! “Life Time” (08×11) is consistently rated among the top episodes of M*A*S*H.Continue reading “Script Spotlight 47: “Life Time””

Script Spotlight 46: “Peace on Us”

As I began my rewatch of M*A*S*H season seven in July, I knew I had to select a script to write about this month. For me, there was only one choice. Not because it is my favorite episode of the season, but because I have always wondered why the second episode of the season wasContinue reading “Script Spotlight 46: “Peace on Us””

Script Spotlight 45: “Fade Out, Fade In”

As part of my 2025 rewatch, season six is on my agenda in June. So fr this year, I have featured a script from the season I am rewatching that month. For season four, I wrote about the script for “Change of Command” (04×02) since it was in that episode that we met Colonel ShermanContinue reading “Script Spotlight 45: “Fade Out, Fade In””

Script Spotlight 44: “Souvenirs”

As we are well into May, and I have been rewatching M*A*S*H season five, I knew I had to choose an episode from the season to review. I am missing scripts for about half of season five, so that narrowed down my options. As I looked through the scripts in the collection, the cover ofContinue reading “Script Spotlight 44: “Souvenirs””

Script Spotlight 43: “Change of Command”

As I continue my monthly rewatch of M*A*S*H in 2025, I decided to sync my script review posts with the season I am watching each month. For April, I am rewatching season four, so I chose an episode from season four. Since I reviewed the script for “Abyssinia, Henry” (03×24) last month, I found itContinue reading “Script Spotlight 43: “Change of Command””

Script Spotlight 42: “Abyssinia, Henry”

On March 18, 1975, the season three finale of M*A*S*H aired on CBS. It had been advertised as the final episode for Col. Henry Blake, but fans of the series were shocked by how the episode ended. The death of Henry Blake was a defining moment for M*A*S*H, and I would argue, a defining momentContinue reading “Script Spotlight 42: “Abyssinia, Henry””
