Based on the earlier book MASH, it includes several things not permissible in movies today. One black character was called "Spearchucker Jones". The guy who thought he was becoming gay (called himself a 'fairy') decided to commit suicide and was given a sleeping pill instead of poison by the doctors, then was 'cured' of being gay in his sleep by the assistance of a frisky nurse.
Just try stunts like that in today's America. Can't be done.
I would actually watch that. There were a few episodes where they intentionally omitted the laugh track because they were trying to be ... serious ... just to pound it over the heads of those too stupid to understand that they WAR IS BAD!!! Those are my least favorite episodes.
