Robert Altman's film was brought to the small screen in 1972, and forever changed the face of television. Successfully combining both drama and comedy into a half-hour format, the show took place in the volatile setting of a military hospital just outside Seoul during the Korean War. With an extensive ensemble cast and finely-drawn characters, the show functioned as political satire and sitcom, while achieving a level of very humane drama rarely seen on TV, with ever-evolving characters who learn from their mistakes and are rarely if ever reduced to types. In this season, Radar is sent home and the hospital is in chaos without him. Klinger takes over his job, assuming more responsibility with often disastrous results as he tries to adjust to his new position. BJ is tempted to have an affair with a beautiful war correspondent, and the doctors must find a home for an orphan of mixed race. Other episodes include Too Many Cooks, Nurse Doctor, Life Time, and Morale Victory.DVD Features:Pan& Scan - 1.33Audio: Mono - English, Spanish& FrenchEpisodes:Disc One:1. Too Many Cooks2.
