2x07: Wacky crossover with the comedy cartoon!

2x08: WAR IS HELL, NOBODY IS INNOCENT, MORALITY IS GREY, FORGIVENESS IS QUESTIONABLE, AND THE FRIENDLY DOCTOR MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE DELIBERATELY KILLED A GUY IN COLD BLOOD

2x09: Musical!

Find you a show that can do both.

Yes, definitely had a MASH vibe.

More MASH the movie than the show, at least not the early seasons.

@Continuumguy @startrek But in its serious mode, without the wacky anti-authoritarian hijinks.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

The laugh-track-less bits in late-stage MASH.

Or Farscape, which sometimes did both in the same episode. Teen Titans could pull it off in a kid-friendly format, too, along with ATLA.
