MoeFOH Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 It's time to say goodbye, farewell, and amen to another off the 50/50 classic list this week - Trapper or BJ? (BJ Hunnicutt, that is. Not Trapper or a Blow Job, as I'd suggest that doesn't need a 50/50 poll to sort out.) You know the drill: read the question, vote on the poll, elaborate in the thread if you so desire. Voting participants go into the draw for an El Pres sampler! - Drawn next Wednesday (Aus local time). Two new things! 1. Next week will be 50/50 Member's Choice week. And it will be a regular feature for the end of each month. 2. For this, I'll start another poll with about 5 options to choose from. These options will be member suggestions that have been PM'd to me or suggested on the forum. We'll do the one with the most votes, the others will go back into the mix for a later poll. All about 50/50... 50/50 is a weekly poll where we find out whether or not some serious bones of contention questions can be finally be buried or will instead remain above ground as a fleshy 50/50 debate... you know, such weighty issues as these... If given no other option: are you a Cohiba or Monte person? do you prefer Hunnicutt or Trapper in M*A*S*H? Connery or Moore as Bond? Apple or PC? Smooth or Crunchy peanut butter? do you prefer wearing men's or women's underwear? Sacrificing chickens or virgins? ...that sort of standard fare. Vote in the poll and further bolster your standpoint in the thread below if you wish. Poll Votes are public and there's a couple of sticks up for grabs for participants. Also, PM me Polls that you'd like me to conduct on 50/50 and there'll be a prize for those we decide to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoliDan Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I prefer unlikely friendships on TV. A bit of contention. BJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cazador Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Had no idea what this thread was about before the comments explained it. Hawkeye + Black Widow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 BJ was too smarmy for me, so Trapper. Though it was sad the way he devolved almost from a co-lead to basically Hawkeye’s straight man. Not the biggest MASH fan ever, but in general I preferred the first gen characters to their replacements. The one exception would be Charles, as David Ogden Stiers was so great in that role.

Rupe Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 This was a close one for me but BJ gets my vote. I think it may have to do with the fact that by the time BJ came along, the writers had a little more time to refine the characters in general. That being said, I do prefer Frank over Winchester though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inter4alia Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 BJ 23 for and 23 against when I voted. Right down the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovethehaze Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Bj just sounds better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanMcLean68 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Hard one. I chose BJ because the series had matured and was at its best IMO. "Partner in crime" probably better describes Trapper though really, from the earlier more comedic less serious, pranks and practical jokes episodes.

Bucky McSwensen Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Good series. Two of my biggest reboot fears are mash and the Marx brothers. Glad they have remained unsullied so far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoeFOH Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 BJ wins it! Slightly surprised by that result. Always was a Trapper fan myself, and I thought he'd have the majority. Hard to beat a good BJ, I suppose. (ok, ok, I've done that to death...) So! To the random winner of the El Pres sampler... that goes to... oh, bloody hell.... @Fuzz !! Congrats, Fuzz!! I won't do the whole send your details bit... I think we can track you down. Thanks again to all who participated. Next poll goes up tomorrow! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithy had a similar feeling when I won the Montblanc Charles Dickens fountain pen comp from many years ago. He was so tempted to redraw the prize!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
