Variety
recently reported that CBS is sitting on a proposed special, MASHback, which tells the M*A*S*H story for the first three seasons.
The author is Gary Markowitz, who has called Larry Gelbart "dad" -- "since I was 6 years old." Markowitz co-wrote original
episodes "George," "Payday," and "Some 38th Parallels," and wrote "Margaret's Engagement." The special would be cast
with new actors in the classic roles. Larry Gelbart has reportedly given it his OK but has not been involved in writing the material.
The project was initiated by Myra Model, then at CBS. And if it goes forward as a movie, Markowitz says she will be attached as a producer with him.
Update The Variety article is unclear as to whether the special is a remake of the storylines
or a "behind the scenes" of the show. The article says "it would be cast with new actors in the classic MASH roles"; however,
it also says Gelbart has "given CBS an OK to portray him". Anyone with further info, please email me.
