In response to "I had no idea the theme from MASH was covered.... -- (link)" by Remlik

Fun Fact: The M*A*S*H theme is an instrumental version of "Suicide is Painless." Lyrics for the song were written by...

...Robert Altman's 14 year-old son Michael. Even though the theme didn't use the lyrics, Michael Altman got paid every time the theme was used, including the 12 year run of the TV series. As a result, Michael Altman made more money from his work on M*A*S*H than director Robert Altman.
