MASH - Martinis and Medicine Collection (DVD, 2009, 36-Disc Set)

MASH is one of the top sit-coms of all time.

I won't really review MASH itself...we all know how good it is. I'm reviewing this particular set. The DVDs are good quality for the most part. We have encountered a few that have the languages mixed up...you click on English and get French, etc. Also, only some of the disks have a "play all" option. Seems weird that there is not consistency from disk to disk in a set. If you are not annoyed by these things, then it is a great bargain.Read full review

The sad truth.

This is one of the funniest comedies of all time. The sadness come from the studio not spending and time cleaning up the video quality or using a better and higher compression. This would require pressing more discs, I would have paid more. I love is show but can not hardy stand to watch it. I will be donating them to my local library when I've watch it. I wish I could give it a better review. Read full review

Great series and value but...

The entire series is great and it was a great deal for the price at about $2 a DVD. However my copy of Season 3 episode 5 begins playing immediately in Spanish. Season 4 episodes 6, 9, & 24 start playing in French. The language selections are all mixed up and not as indicated but luckily all languages are there. I was able to select Spanish to hear the English version and French for the English version. This problem appears to be a manufacturing flaw. All DVD's play normally otherwise.

Despite this minor inconvenience this purchase was well worth the cost.Read full review

Foreign language issue but overall great set!

Great box set. Like other reviewers I did find a few of the episodes on some disks that were in other languages, however I discovered you just need to change the language to spanish in the episode settings and that is really english. Weird. It's solvable. Also disappointed there was no booklet with this set. The extras on the last DVDs are well worth every penny.Read full review

Great box set of one of television's best shows ever produced!

I've always wanted the MASH box set, and when I finally decided to buy it, I came right to eBay. I found this set at a great price, with fast shipping! The set was sealed, and brand new, exactly as described. While the video could have been digitally enhanced to improve the picture, it was left alone, so the viewer experiences exactly what was broadcast in the early 70's thru the early 80's. MASH is my favorite television show of all time, I enjoy the uniqueness each character brings to the screen, and love the humor, both the slap-stick and the more sophisticated comedy. And while MASH, the TV show, was started 45 years ago, I think the subject matter and themes the writers brought to the show are just as relevant today as they were in Korea in the early 50's, when the show takes place, and in the early 70's to early 80's, when the show was produced.

The MASH box set is a must have for every Television lover, I assure you, you won't be disappointed!Read full review

Not the set I expected

I've owned the Martinis and Medicine collection before, when it came out 8 years ago. This is not the same set. Very obvious difference is the missing M*A*S*H* companion booklet. That booklet is full of interesting and helpful information. I don't know if they removed it prior to sale, but the loss of that booklet is sorely felt by this M*A*S*H* fan.

A few discs have had trouble playing on my laptop, which identified them as blank. They played eventually.

If you haven't seen M*A*S*H*, you should. This series changed tv.Read full review

Meatball Surgery at its dramatic comedic best.

The Canvas case was an awsome touch,all the disc were there,including the Movie and "Goodbye,farewell and Amen" Finale Episode. with bonus extras. A Complete and well presented compilation.
