AfterMASH Trivia:

AfterMASH was canceled after taking one of televisions steepest dive in ratings! The series was a very respectable #15 in the Nielsen Ratings during its first season. Then, shortly after the beginning of the second season, it dropped to a pitiful #90!

One of the many reasons for AfterMASH's demise was its time slot being moved. In the first season, it appeared after the popular series, "The Scarecrow and Mrs. King" and another hot comedy, "Newhart" came on after AfterMASH. In the second season, AfterMASH opened up the primetime on CBS, forcing it to pull an audience on its own. It also had some fierce competition on NBC from the extremely popular series, "The A-Team".

After the first relatively successful season, there were plans to bring some of the old M*A*S*H actors including Alan Alda on as guest stars in order to take AfterMASH to the top of the ratings. Of course, those plans were forgotten when the series dropped off the ratings radar.

Gary Burghoff (Radar) and Edward Winter (Colonel Flagg) were the only two characters from M*A*S*H that actually did guest star on AfterMASH, however, there was one character that were referred to on M*A*S*H but never seen that did appear on AfterMASH. She was Colonel Potter's wife, "Mildred". Another character who was a guest star on M*A*S*H became a regular on AfterMASH. She was Klinger's wife, "Soon-Lee".

Gary Burghoff made a pilot for another M*A*S*H spin-off titled, "W*A*L*T*E*R" and the pilot was broadcast on July 17, 1984. Unfortunately, the series was not picked up.

There was one episode of AfterMASH that was produced but was not broadcast. It's title was, "Wet Feet".
