The Resume

    (September 26, 1983-December 18, 1984)
    Aired on CBS
    Sequel to M*A*S*H
    Harry Morgan as Sherman Potter
    Jamie Farr as Max Klinger
    William Christopher as Father Francis Mulcahey
    Rosalind Chao as Soon-Lee Klinger
    Premise: After the Korean War, three members of the 4077th M*A*S*H reunite on the staff of General Pershing Veterans Adminstration Hospital in Missouri

Why AfterMASH might be annoying:

    The series was built around three second bananas.
    The title was a pun on 'aftermath.'
    CBS scheduled the show opposite The A-Team for the second season and hyped the move with pictures of Klinger in a nurse's uniform shaving off Mr. T's signature mohawk.
    The implied boast that AfterMASH would trounce the A-Team did not quite pan out.
    During the second season, Klinger got into legal trouble and tried an insanity plea, giving him an excuse to start wearing dresses again.
    The planned final episode was pre-empted for a news report and never aired.
    It was a shorter-lived M*A*S*H spin-off than 'Trapper John, MD,' and that show didn't even have any actual M*A*S*H cast members in it.

Why AfterMASH might not be annoying:

    During its first season, the show ranked a respectable 15 in the ratings.
    Like the original M*A*S*H, several episodes focussed on the horrors of war.
    Gary Burghoff appeared as Radar in a two-part episode.
    At least it was a better concept for a spin-off than 'BeforeMASH' would have been.
