M*A*S*Hed Scenes

Unfortunately, when television stations in the United States and some other countries rerun M*A*S*H, they edit scenes. In many episodes whole scenes are cut out; other times certain scenes are cut short. At times a joke may not make as much sense when a previous scene which sets up the joke is cut out. When M*A*S*H was originally run there were fewer commercials during each show. Today several minutes are cut out of every episode to make room for commercials. It is possible that it isn't always the same scenes edited out of each episode.

Below are some pictures and sound clips from scenes which I have seen edited out in syndication. I will be changing/adding featured scenes from time to time. For a couple other scenes often cut out, look at "Henry's Lectures".
