In the third "weather" episode of M*A*S*H's seventh season, the 4077th is placed in deep freeze by a bitter cold spell. Only Charles (David Ogden Stiers) is unaffected by the plummeting temperatures--after all, he's just received a thermal suit sent from home. Ultimately, of course, Charles finds ample reason to shiver in his boots, but not before his colleagues have dealt with such contigencies as an explosion, a severe case of hypothermia--and a marathon screening of the Sonja Henie skating epic Sun Valley Serenade. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
