- Season 6 (1977-1978): List of Episodes
The first episode of Season 6 of M*A*S*H, Fade Out, Fade In, Part 1 aired on CBS-TV on September 20, 1977; it introduced a new surgeon, the surgically talented, but arrogant, snobbish, classical music loving Boston blueblood Major Charles Emerson Winchester III. The season's final episode, Major Topper, aired on March 27, 1978.
Burt Metcalfe, who had been with the series since Season 1 as a line producer until he assumed the new role as associate producer under Gene Reynolds after the departure of series creator and co-executive producer Larry Gelbart before the start of Season 5, now assumed the role of executive producer when Reynolds left to devote a full-time effort to his role as producer the CBS-TV news/drama series Lou Grant in mid-season. Metcalf would serve as the executive producer for the remainder of the series' run.
•Charles Emerson Winchester III is permanently assigned to the 4077th after Frank Burns goes crazy in Tokyo and is transferred back to the states (where he is later promoted to Lt. Colonel!) in Fade Out, Fade In, Part 1 and Fade Out, Fade In, Part 2. These two segments are frequently broadcast as one full hour episode.
•Corporal Klinger gets divorced from his wife Laverne Esposito in Mail Call Three.
•Hawkeye Pierce and Margaret Houlihan have a brief love affair in Comrades in Arms, Part 1 and Comrades in Arms, Part 2.
•M*A*S*H moves to Mondays at 9:00PM, effective the January 30, 1978 episode "What's Up Doc?". This proves to be the series' most popular timeslot, and here it will stay for its last 6 years on CBS.
•For the first time, end credits are seen at episode's end, just before the closing credits.
•This is the only season with the closing theme adding the opening guitar licks from "Suicide Is Painless."
•This table lists the episodes in the order they were first broadcast. The episodes were not all broadcast in the same order as they were produced. The broadcast order is also the order of episodes in the DVD set. However, syndicated reruns and paid streaming services such as Netflix sometimes follow the production order (e.g.Y-101, Y-102, Y-103....)
•Watching the episodes in Broadcast Order creates only one minor discontinuity. In Comrades in Arms, Part 2, Margaret says they are using a special clamp developed at the 4077th for the operation. The story of how that clamp is developed is only told 3 episodes later in Patient 4077. This latter episode was actually produced earlier.
