Like Mash (which had way too many 70's hairdo looks, Godzilla mentions when the first G film was not until 1954, and so on) AfterMash also lacked good period looks faithful to the real early 1950's. Most of the characters on the sequel show looked like 1980's people merely dressed up to go to a 1950's party. On to other analogy points.
Like Mash--the lack of any mention of the North Korean mass-murderer/Korean War starter (Kim II Sung) was a harrassment. And, also like Mash, the less bad-more democratic South Korean leader (Syngman Rhee) got a bad mention on the sequel show as well. The sequel also capitalized on the worst elements of Mash (the ones from the last seasons) when the show was really boring rather than the way better and more lively first seasons.

Any sequel to M*A*S*H really should have used the actual sequel to the novel, M*A*S*H Goes To Maine... but of course by that point there was no way to keep Alan Alda, and most of the other original cast members were gone by that point in the chronology.
