M*A*S*H is an American medical comedy/drama media franchise. It depicts a group of characters who serve at a mobile army surgical hospital (the 4077th M*A*S*H) during the Korean War and is best known for the TV series which was on the air for eleven seasons, from 1972 to 1983.

The M*A*S*H franchise began with the 1968 novel MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors by Richard Hooker. The novel was adapted into a film in 1970. The film was a box office success, and the TV series followed in 1972. The franchise also gave rise to 14 additional novels, which appeared between 1972 and 1977, and two spin-off television series. AfterMASH was a continuation of M*A*S*H. It was poorly received and lasted only two television seasons, from 1983 to 1985. Far more successful was Trapper John, M.D. which aired from 1979 to 1986 and was a spin-off from the 1970 film rather than the TV series.

Over the course of its original broadcast run, the M*A*S*H TV series won numerous awards and, after its first season, enjoyed consistently high ratings. The series finale, "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen", set a number of viewership and ratings records. Some of those records still stand thirty-plus years later, including being the most-watched series finale in American television history.

M*A*S*H is also notable for using its Korean War setting as an allegory for speaking out about the Vietnam War, which was still in progress when the movie appeared and during the early seasons of the TV series. Also, the TV series had a large number of not-quite-famous guest stars, some of whom later appeared on The Simpsons in guest roles.

M*A*S*H has been referred to several times in The Simpsons media.

Television episodes[edit]

Picture Season Episode number Episode name Reference
Marge and Neighbors in 1983.png 4 69 "Lisa's First Word" In a flashback scene from the spring of 1983, Marge and two neighbor women are talking about the last episode of M*A*S*H. One of them says, "That Mike Farrell really boils my potato", and the other one says she already misses Klinger.
Hibbert MASH Coloring Book.png 73 "Brother from the Same Planet" Lisa goes to Dr. Hibbert's office, is given eardrops, and then has to wait 20 minutes for them to sink in. Hibbert offers her a M*A*S*H coloring book in case she gets bored, then glances at the pictures and chuckles at one where the caption is "Hawkeye's antics irritate the other surgeons."
MASH Signpost.png

MASH Wax Statues Melted.png
6 104 "Bart of Darkness" During an intense heat wave, the statues in the Springfield Wax Museum melt, which prompts Principal Skinner to complain, "I hardly think it's fair to be charged full price. I'm up to my knees in the original cast of M*A*S*H!" As Skinner speaks, the signpost showing the distances to various places in America and elsewhere (often seen in both the film and TV series) is visible in the background. After he finishes, the camera tilts down to show that he is standing in a puddle of melted wax, and floating in the wax are assorted items associated with the characters: Klinger's fur stole; a belt, shirt and boots from an Army uniform; a stethoscope; and Colonel Blake's fishing hat.
Troy McClure You May Remember Me from Such Spin-Offs.png 8 177 "The Simpsons Spin-Off Showcase" Troy McClure, hosting the episode, introduces himself by saying, "You may remember me from such TV spinoffs as Son of Sanford and Son and AfterMannix", referencing Sanford and Son, Mannix, and M*A*S*H and AfterMASH.
My Core Beliefs.png 12 263 "Hungry, Hungry Homer" After Homer begins his hunger strike, Lisa gives him a copy of Mike Farrell's autobiography, My Core Beliefs, to inspire him.
Keep Your Clothes On.png 13 279 "Half-Decent Proposal" When Artie Ziff sends his private helicopter to pick up Marge to spend the weekend with him, the M*A*S*H theme music plays as it lifts off from the Simpson home. Marge looks out the window as the helicopter gains altitude, and she sees that Homer has spelled out "KEEP YOUR CLOTHES ON" with white rocks in the backyard. This is a sight gag on the scene at the end of "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen" where Hawkeye leaves the 4077th in a helicopter and sees that B.J. has spelled out "GOODBYE" with white rocks on the ground.
Moe On Hold.png 24 527 "Whiskey Business" When Moe calls the suicide hotline and gets put on hold, the on-hold music is "Suicide Is Painless", the sung version of the M*A*S*H theme song, which was only heard in the film. (The lyrics were considered to be too dark for television in the 1970s, so an instrumental version was used as the TV theme song.[1])
Hibbert Treats Ice Cream Headache.png 25 552 "The Yellow Badge of Cowardge" After Dr. Hibbert diagnoses Milhouse with traumatic amnesia and says he may never recover his memory (to Bart's relief), he quickly runs off to treat some cases of ice cream headache. As the M*A*S*H theme music plays, Hibbert is seen in closeup looking down at his patient, the same as Hawkeye in the TV series' opening sequence. Hibbert then helps to load his patient onto what at first appears to be a medical evacuation helicopter with two outboard platforms for carrying patients, but moments later is revealed to be a carnival ride.
World Championship Blackout - Riot Police.png 30 656 "E My Sports" During the Conflict of Enemies world championship, Homer cuts off the electricity and a riot ensues. A piano-solo version of the theme song plays as the riot police restore order.
MASH Bart's Birthday.png 36 769 "Bart's Birthday" During the closing credits, the Simpsons appears in spoofs of well-known TV series finales, one of them being M*A*S*H..

Comic stories[edit]

Picture Comic issue Story name Reference
Marge the Sellout TV Guides.png Simpsons Comics #130 Marge the Sellout Homer's collection of old issues of TV Guide falls onto Marge. One of them has a cover story about M*A*S*H.
Kamp Krusty (Into the Woods).jpg Bart Simpson #74 Into the Woods Bart and Milhouse get lost in the woods near Kamp Krusty, and it's later revealed that they were quite near the camp the whole time. The story is reminiscent of the M*A*S*H television episode "They Call the Wind Korea", where Winchester and Klinger get lost in a windstorm and endure a night stopped on the road, only to discover the next morning that they were only two hundred yards from camp.
Lovejoy Infects the Church.png The Simpsons Winter Wingding #5 One Flu Over Springfield When a flu epidemic sweeps through Springfield, Rev. Lovejoy is infected. Unaware of his status, he serves Holy Communion during a service at the First Church of Springfield and unknowingly infects the congregation. In the episode "Hepatitis", Father Mulcahy contracts hepatitis and is concerned about the impact on his ministry: Specifically, that he can't serve Holy Communion because he'll infect everyone when he places the wafers on their tongues.
