In the process of becoming one of the most successful and beloved programs in TV history, M*A*S*H completely reinvented situation comedies. The show introduced a multi-layered plot model that involved, typically, three interwoven issues per episode. The show also blended serious and lighthearted subjects, creating the much-imitated dramedy model. Additionally, M*A*S*H let the characters drive the action, and over the course of the 11-seasons the characters all underwent personal transformations - a major break from the static roles of the past. In its penultimate season, the show kicks off with the arrival of a touring USO show to the 4077th, rambles through a typically inventive and sardonic season of misadventures, and concludes with a milk goat eating $22,340 of the M*A*S*H payroll.
