I really felt like as the seasons went on it got worse and worse, I liked Blake and Trapper.

I can't stand the canned laughter and fortunately there are version without it, but it is a bit weird with all the silent pauses.

I can only watch the seasons with henry and Trapper. After that the show took itself too seriously. I prefer the movie to the TV show.

The song was written specifically for Ken Prymus (the actor playing Private Seidman), who sang it during the faux suicide of Walter "Painless Pole" Waldowski (John Schuck) in the film's "Last Supper" scene.[2][3] Robert Altman had two stipulations about the song for Mandel: first, it had to be called "Suicide Is Painless"; second, it had to be the "stupidest song ever written".[4] Altman tried to write the lyrics himself, but found that it was too difficult for his 45-year-old brain to write "stupid enough".[5] Instead he gave the task to his 14-year-old-son, Michael, who wrote the lyrics in five minutes

Not every episode hit the mark and I dislike the direction Frank's character took in the later seasons, before he went AWOL. That being said, it's an amazing show. It had really good comedy, and the drama occasionally hit you like a damn truck. Nostalgia gets me whenever I see the opening.
