Which episodes really annoy you and why?

Any episode where the world revolves around Hawkeye - in particular, 'Hawkeye', 'Bless you Hawkeye' (Alda is SO hammy in that episode!) and 'Lend a Hand'. Also, episodes which don't seem to fit. I know that the timeline on MASH is all over the place, but generally there is some sort of 'flow' to it at least. So I get annoyed when an episode like 'A War for All Seasons' makes out that Potter, BJ and Winchester have been there since 1950, completely ignoring the characters who were there at the beginning. Then there are the 2 Season 11 eps, 'UN The Night and the Music' and 'Strange Bedfellows'. The UN eppy puts both Charles and Margaret's characters back in Season 6 mode, as though neither of them have moved on since then; and 'Strange Bedfellows' does the same with Charles - his remark to Mulcahy that snoring would make him "just the same as everybody else" implies that he's learned nothing in his time at the 4077th, and contradicts several earlier episodes. My explanation for events in all these 'ill-fitting' episodes, is that they are actually just somebody's bad dream!

'Bless You Hawkeye' has to be one of the most annoying episodes in the history of M*A*S*H some of the others include 'Hawkeye' and 'Comrades in Arms'
'Bless You Hawkeye' is probably one of the worst because of the OTT acting and it just looks worse when the episode following it (The Life You Save) has such superb acting that is far from being OTT.

The one where Hawkeye flips the jeep over and stay with the non-English speaking Korean family. It was total Hawkeye, like anyone cares about him.

Thought of something eles, any episode where Hawkeyes reams Charles for having an over inflated ego. Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black ?

I would have to agree with "Comrades in Arms". That was one of the WORST on-screen kisses I have ever seen!

First and foremost: Comrades in Arms, the ep where MASH officially jumped the shark. Dreams Bless You Hawkeye Pretty much any ep where Alda totally overacts, which is most of them. The one where Hawkeye's made Chief Surgeon, cuz I said it afore and I'll say it agin, far as I'm concerned, Trapper is the Chief Surgeon, whether Alda likes it or not.
