M*A*S*H-up!

I was introduced to the glorious mash-up Suicide Fever (Suicide is Painless vs Pac Man Fever) by a late-night post on the B3ta messageboard, and didn’t get much work done after that.

I must have played it (on loop) about 50 times. I’m still playing it now, FFS…

I kept wondering what use of Flash would best represent this work of genius, and found myself cruising a variety of M*A*S*H sites for the first time in a long time. (Bloggerheads has featured M*A*S*Hness before; see The M*A*S*H Quiz and The 4007th Project.)

On this little journey, I found the new-and-improved Finest Kind, which repeats a lot of information you’ll see elsewhere, but is very well-organised and contains gems such as this…

I was already familiar with the disaster that was AfterM*A*S*H, but didn’t know about the failed pilot W*A*L*T*E*R.

‘Radar’ O’Reilly joins the police force! Genius!

Direction by Bill ‘Hulk’ Bixby! More! More!

Heh. My day is made. I’m in geek heaven.

Read more about W*A*L*T*E*R at Finest Kind.

Then play Pac-Man.

Oh, and the Flash show? I think you can safely file it under ‘forever crowding the back burner’… but do try to imagine how wonderful it would have been.
