Abodeeli, that's with 2 "e"s.
Sep. 24th, 2003 08:03 pmCUTE FUCKING M*A*S*H TODAY. Mostly nonsensical plots, but when the shit's this good, I can overlook the almost complete absence of every major character except Hawkeye, BJ, Charles and Klinger.
What the hell am I talking about?!? IT WAS AMAZING WITH JUST THOSE FOUR!!!
First, the first episode. Call me a sell-out, I feel like rambling about the episodes in the order they aired.
The first ep had this extremely young doctor show up and... well, show up every single doctor there, mostly Charles. (EVIL!! Why can he never get a fucken break in the OR?!) So, Charles turned into a total drunkard and broke hawkeye's bed and just acted like a total pouty mook. AWWWWWWWW.
Meanwhile, Potter had something wrong with his leg, and Radar convinced him he wasn't necessary, so he spent 2 days in bed being totally worthless. Margaret decided to go and try to get him out of bed, but Klinger's subplot was that he acted as if he'd never left Toledo, so he showed up at Potter's tent (in a suit OMFG) and tried to sell him vinyl siding. When Margaret showed up (Potter: "I hope it's the police."), Klinger was all, "Oh! It's the missus! Lucky man, sir!" and she threw him out but in a rather odd script move, he actually came back TWICE to get his vinyl siding samples and spoke both times. Seemed like something I'd write in desperation.
Anyway, the end of that episode struck me oddly. (well, not the end-end, but the final scene before the final scene) See, Charles is badly hungover and Potter's leg is in bad shape, but they both have to go into the OR. Charles is begging Potter to let him take the day off, but Potter says no. NOW, Charles had a damn good point because he was ranting about how Potter could take all the days off he wanted, and it was never really even established WHY Potter took so much time off, but either way, he was an ass about it. They had a major screaming match, but Potter basically won and told Charles to take his pain and shove it, and then Charles became determined to show Potter up anyway, so they both went hobbling into OR.
Anyway, THEN for some reason, Charles got humble about it and told Potter that, ahem, "you are as good a surgeon as I am." Which is like... you know, a compliment. And then when Potter didn't respond much, he said, "I was sincere about that. Don't you have anything to say to me?" Potter said, "Yeah. Get back to work."
Now, I guess it was maybe one of those episodes that teaches the lesson that there's not always a resolution.... but there was SO not a resolution that it irked me. Hawkeye and BJ ALWAYS get SOME kind of absolution, but Charles just got stomped all over and chewed up and spit out and stomped all over again. And it's not like he was being any more of a jerk than ever. He was upset because that kid was a better surgeon. If it'd been Hawkeye... well, it'd have been different. They'd have made up or something at the end. It just bugs me that they treat Charles like such dirt sometimes.
Of course, Klinger's end scene was great. Seriously, he NEVER ONCE faltered with his "I'm still in Toledo" gig. It was amazing. It was genius. Pure genius, and I bow to the writers, even though they used Charles as a punching bag and I still don't know what was up with Potter.
So, the second episode. One of the two big ass huge episodes I have to see or else I will die!!!!!!!!!! I knew it right away, because Hawkeye, BJ and Charles all were ready to kill each other (Charles actually called Beethoven a hack and pinned Hawkeye and BJ against the wall with a chair!) and they sent Charles to Rosie's to have a good time.
OH MY GOD! COULD IT BEEE??!
Yes!!! Guessss who else was there in a lovely blue spaghetti-strap number? Now, pay close attention kiddies. This may look like a "Charles and Klinger both have dates" episode to the untrained eye... but I happen to know that in reality it's a "Charles and Klinger want to boink each other's brains out and just so happen to....both... have dates...." episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, Klinger's sitting at a table all alone, when suddenly this nurse appears and says, "Hey, you're wearing a dress." Apparently she thinks that's hot, and whoopeee. (Funny shit, her name is Debbie. XD)
Meanwhile, Charles is sitting at a table... all alone, when suddenly this hooker named Sooni shows up, and asks him to buy her a hamburger. He gives her the money and sends her on her way, not at all interested... but then later on, he gets interested.
SO THE NEXT DAY, Hawkeye and BJ want to kill each other because of their mutual bad habits, and then Klinger shows up and is rambling about how happy and in love he is, how a kid from the streets of Toledo could POSSIBLY meet a girl named "Debbie", and they mention that Charles never came home last night. Klinger's on his way out the door, and GUESS WHO'S ON HIS WAY IN THE DOOR. AND GUESS WHAT??! Charles PUTS HIS ARM AROUND HIM AND CALLS HIM "MAX". OMFG. (Yeah, see. TEN-SHUN.)
They talk about the hot little numbers they saw each other with last night (now why would they possibly notice something like that?!) and Charles... ahem....
ASKS TO BORROW ONE OF KLINGER'S DRESSES FOR HIS DAAAAAAAAATE TO WEAR. *head explodey* HE SPECIFICALLY WANTED HER IN.... AAAAAUUUGHHHH!!! Oh, and how clever he was that he made the excuse that she dressed like a bimbo. I'm on to you, Charles. I'm fucken ON to you. ;D
Anyway, Hawkeye moves out of the swamp because he can't tolerate BJ anymore and stuff, blah blah. (Oh yeah, Potter and Margaret and Mulcahy did show up for one scene, "Bingo Night". XDDDDD BINGO NIGHT!!!!)
SOOOO, later on, Charles and Sooni are sitting around, eating, and he says she looks lovely... IN THAT DRESS. But she hates it. "Too many buttons, takes too long to get it off!" SO LATER ON, they go into the supply room for... uh... some reason... 0=P but Charles is trying to expose her to the fine arts and stuff, and she totally hates the music.
SO GUESS WHAT THEN?!? (I'm sorry, this must get so irritating.) Klinger and Debbie come in, and there was this great scene of Klinger looking across this shelf and seeing Charles on the other side. They were so cute, Charles told Sooni they'd better find some other place to go, and Sooni's like, "Pull rank on him! Don't let this clown push you around!" but for some reason, Charles was a perfect gentleman and let Klinger have the supply room, being sure to mention that Sooni loved the dress. (Oh, did I mention that Klinger's wearing this extremely hot uniform, which Potter laughed his ass off at?)
Unfortunately, then came the breakups. Oh, wait, did I say "unfortunately"? I think what I meant to say was "HAHAHAHAH THEN THE STUPID BITCHES GOT THEIRS." Except they weren't stupid bitches and I feel no malice towards them. Bleh. Klinger was talking to Debbie about their future together, (moving into the house he was born in... awwwww!!!) but she revealed that she just wanted him for the sex. AND HE SAID HE WASN'T THAT KINDA GUY OMFG. ;___________; (fun fact: His address was 1215 Michigan St.)
Then, Charles and Sooni were sitting in Rosie's, and he was reading her poetry while she ate her hamburger like a little kid. He finished the poem and asked her what she thought, and her response was "The meat is (something) and the bun is burned! Rosie gets away with murder!!!!" Heh. She was really cute. But then she also revealed that she just wanted him for the sex and she can get that anywhere, so she ran off because he was too fucken boring.
So, Charles went back to the swamp and got drunked. Later, they went out for more drinks, and Klinger was sitting in the corner, singing. Hawkeye and BJ think it's horrible, but for SOME REASON, Charles goes over and JOINS HIM. And it freeze-framed with both of them singing drunkenly. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Can you feel the fucken cuteness??!?!?!?
Yeah, big ass fucken rgzm time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
