the funniest thing about people saying mulcahy looks like a butch lesbian or that i draw him like a butch lesbian is that he's not even my type as a lesbian. yes he's my favorite character but even if he really was a butch lesbian i would still be stepping over him to get to my beloved major margaret houlihan no hesitation no remorse
NOTE: In this series, "closing shots" means "the cleanest full shot right before the fade to black effect happens," OR "the cleanest full shot right before the freeze frame." It's a pain in the ass to try to find it frame by frame... backwards. Why did I decide to do this?!?!?!
Season 5 // Season 4 // Season 3 // Season 2 // Season 1
Never gonna forget showing my roommate MASH after explaining it as a Korean War drama/comedy, then watching it in silence till the end where she turns to me and says that wasn’t a K-drama
Father Mulcahys ending makes me feel so many feelings WAAA WAAA I CARE ABOUT HIM!! he saved peoples lives and he suffered for it THATS SO FUCKED UP WAAA WAAAA
father mulcahy has gotta be one of my favorite fictional characters of all time. just imagine. you're a priest in the middle of a war. you're surrounded by doctors and nurses working day and night to patch up hordes of wounded soldiers. everyone knows how futile it is - at the end of the day, these soldiers, these children, are just being fixed up so they can be sent right back into combat again. and what is your place in all this? you were sent here to heal the soul rather than the body, but few people in camp attend your sunday services, and confessions are sparse. the doctors have a nice clear number to tell them how good they're doing - 97.8%, the highest survival rate of any army hospital in the country. but there's no such way to measure spiritual healing, and so your invisible work weighs on you. you question whether you're even helping at all. and you become so lost in your feelings of inadequacy that you can't see the good you're doing. you can't see how much everyone depends on you. you can't see that in the middle of this violent, nonsensical theatre, your soft words, open ear, and quiet optimism are what gives everyone the strength to make it through each day. your mere presence has shaped this mess of a camp into a brilliant parish, and you're too humble to ever realize it.
