Ernest Borgnine is a Honorary Chief Petty Officer who served as a Gunnersmate in WWII, he gave a speach at Great Lakes Ill, and I got to shake his hand after! What a great guy!!
My dad was on the 356. I watched this show and it made Dad a hero in my 5 yr old eyes. It wasn't till adulthood I realized all those crews were heros. His boat was noted in the Smithsonian Naval Records as the 1st U.S. Vessel to Re-enter Phillipines Waters. I doubt my dad even knew that. I was almost 60 when the internet opened that door. But Mchale was all I had to go by as a kid. Thats the navy I wanted to be in. On a P.T. with those men.
My father was a P.T COMMANDER in the pacific and He loved the show,HATED MASH!! But Loved McHales Navy,I Laughed watching it,and Now cry..I LOVE YOU DAD!!!
RIP Tim Conway. You will forever be regarded as one of the funniest and best comedians ever. Today's comedians should watch your routines and learn what real comedy is.
Exactly my sediments, sir. One of the BEST, hands down. In EVERYTHING he did. Today's comedy stars are funny, maybe if you're 20, and a Facebook cowboy🤠🙄⁉️
My Dad was WWII Navy (Destroyer Escort in the N. Atlantic) . I remember watching this show with him when I was kid .. He used to get such a kick out of ti
My dad was a Motor Machinist's Mate/20mm Gunner on an LST in the Pacific during the war and McHale's Navy was the only show or movie about WWII he would watch. He especially appreciated the show's portrayal of officers.
It's sad how they couldn't watch any of the movies...the MASH film was apparently a real shocker with the hemoraging combat patients....it apparently sent a few to the bathrooms and street....sadly we are now so de-sensitized to it all.
I have a friend who served in Vietnam who still won’t watch any type of military program since he came home in ‘72. M*A*S*H being at the top of the list. #MuchLoveForTheVets. 💖💯
A Vietnam Veteran that I used to work on and off for over 30 years finally went to the VA and talked to a couple of other veterans and a counselor. He would never say more then a sentence or two about the war before that, and one day while I was at lunch on my shift and he had just finished his shift, came in and talked to me for over an hour about the war. He really opened up and became himself again. He got a partial disability too and a minor settlement that has really helped in his current retirement. God bless him and all the veterans, may you find peace!
+Mick Sydney That's for sure, they were the good old days of T.V., days that we enjoyed a comedy show, not like we have shit comedy rubbish today, all swearing so people can lough, good comedians are gone now. all of McHale crew are all dead only Mr. Tim Conway (Parker) is left and is 82 years old, i wish i can meet him and shake hands with him.
+Mick Sydney Love this show Mick, but did you know the ratings where not as high as they should have been back then? from what I hear. Couple of reasons, one of which, bad timing. Also, competition. some other reasons too. But I loved this show. The US Navy liked it because at the time, it promoted enlistments. Believe it or not, young men where signing on for the navy because they thought this was how the navy behaved, so they thought it would be kinda fun. Now, these where young kids keep in mind and they where just a little naive, & ignorant. You know how kids in their mid teens are. I think I heard all of this from one of the Ernest Borgnine interviews I saw. In my opinion, I don't think this show would have been as good with out Joe Flyn. I don't see anybody standing in his sted. Borgnine said it himself when they asked him to do another McHale's Navy move. He said "perhaps, but where are you gonna get another Joe Flyn?" and he's right, as good as an actor Borgnine is, he can't carry the whole comedy load himself. I mean really, Flyn was damn good at playing that part. The Best. Even to this day I don't see anybody playing the part of Capt. Binghamton. NOBODY. RIP Joe and Ernest. Yes sir Mick, they were the good days.
+buzz bang ...great comment on joe..i would like to know what happened to joes wife and children..especially after joe drowned in suspicious circumstances...there should be a documentary on joe about what really happened to him..was it foul play..did the hollywood mafia do him in..as he was after class action on residual payments for all actors who appeared on tv..joe knew his lines and could improvise..there was nobody like him..he was the jack benny on a great tv series that stands up well, nearly 54 years later..and ernest borgnine was the straight man..
So glad that I happened to stumble upon this vintage delight. 'Ermes Borgnino,' Borgnine's real name, has always been one of my favorite actors, and McHale's Navy was always one of my favorite TV Programs. I really enjoyed his performance in the 'Poseidon Adventure, The Dirty Dozen and The Wild Bunch. He was truly a Great Actor. Thank You for posting these episodes Jackie Boy!! Semper-Fi Ernie!!

Don't know why this popped up in my recommended, but glad it did! Gawd! I loved shows like this when I was a kid. The music, the clean humor, the way the actors and actresses played their parts, it was just all wonderful! What the heck happened in Hollywood? Nothing but garbage now.
When I commanded a NATO base in Italy, I used Quentin McHale as a role model. Got great results, and had the happiest crew in the Med. True story. You can ask my crew.
so you granted your men "high spirited times" including bootlegging, racketeering and all ? Do you know this could call for a court marshal, we got a lot of bingies around you know :D
JOE FLYN DROWNED IN HIS OWN SWNING POOL AND TIM CONWAY DIED IN 2000 AND 19 AND ERNIST BORGNINE DIED FROM CANCER AT THE AGE OF 93 YEARS AGO AND HE WAS A GREAT ACTOR IN MC HALES NAVY 😔
Tim Conway is so funny. On the Carol Burnett he was great also. He played a Dentist on the C. B. Show and kept sticking the Xylocaine in his on arm leg. It was probably one of the funniest thing I've ever seen.
. *When I was in the Navy, we had a Lt. Commander just like McHale! Play on the beach but pure business when on the line! We had a Capt. Leadbottom too!* .
Look up the works, if you can find them of Admiral Daniel V Gallery, such as Cap'n Fatso. His fiction relies heavily on McHale types and practical jokers. BTW, in WW II, he was commander of a hunter-killer group based on the escort carrier USS Guadalcanal. He actually planned, practiced for, and ultimately carried out the succesful capture of a German sub on the high seas, the first US Navy capture of an enemy warship by boarding since the War of 1812.. I actually met a guy who was on the third or fourth boat to board. Very much like his fiction, there was a twist. The sub had an Enigma coding machine. We had already broken the German naval code, and if they heard we had captured the sub intact, they would change their codes. They had to tow the sub back to the US through the Bahamas, where the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, considered Nazi sympthizers, were liiving. All of the sailors were sworn to secrecy, the Germans had to be held in a separate camp and, under an exception to the Geneva Convention, the Red Cross was not told of their survival After the war, Gallery got the sub sent to a museum in Chicag where it is still on exhibit.
This show inspired me to join the US Navy. I was on the USS America V4 division 76 to 80. Shout out to Lt. Smith if you`re out there and hats off to Captain Fuller!
My father fought in the Pacific, but he never really talked about it, until the last weeks of his life. Now with McHale's Navy, I'm getting a sense of what he, of the Greatest Generation went through. Thank you for this.
I just seen his story about the Siamese elephants today, boy was it funny. I love how Vicki Lawrence ask if the a....hole was really done, how Tim and Dick Van Dyke both fall off the ends of the couch and started rolling around on the floor on laughter. A must look up on RUclips it was great

+Dan NZ -one can learn about tv script writing just by watching the show..mind you these days they have very flimsy scripts..with no talent characterizations..
Yea the comedies of old will always be the best, they stand the test of time for those of us that appreciate this genuine humor. Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway even brought comedic class to SpongeBob as Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy! So much nostalgia watching these episodes, like comfort food for the comedic soul...thanks very much for making this 61 year old man smile again by posting these videos...
I watched the show in the afternoon with my mom when I was a little one. Hogan’s Hero’s and the Wild Wild West. My mom was a Wave and dad a Sea Bee in W2.
Thank your parents for their service!!! My grandfather lost a ling due to Japanese Mustard Gas in WWI. My dad served every branch except the Marines. My nephew served overseas too. He is contracted overseas now.
50's 60's some 70's TV best time of tube entertainment. Rabbit ears and all. Jackie Boy, thanks for the vids. I have not watched or have had a TV for 5 years now. just don't want one or need it.
Tuesday nights primetime on ABC: Combat!, Mchale's Navy and F-Troop. I remember that when I was a kid growing up in the 60's. Even during war time there is some comic relief. And do not forget that those who served in our Armed Forces who fought and died during war time, lets not forget them. Let's honor them on Memorial Day, 2019. And of course every Memorial Day and our Veterans on every Veterans Day. Thank you for your service for protecting our nation. And thanks to you Jackie Boy for the upload!
The guys really looked out for Parker sometimes despite his being naive! They often stuck their necks out for him but they used him to outsmart Binghamton!
ALL OF THESE VARIOUS OLDER CLASSIC TV EPISODES ARE REALLY GREAT TO SEE ONCE AGAIN SO MANY YEARS AFTER THE DAYS OF OUR YOUTH WITH MANY NOW VERY WELL KNOWN ACTORS BEFORE THEY REACHED THEIR ULTIMATE FAME - THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR FINDING AND POSTING THEM HERE.
It makes me so sad that Tim Conway suffers from dementia and is in a nursinghome,the man is a comedy genius, glad we have these shows to watch,check out the elephant story clip from carol brunette show,without a doubt the funniest comedy clip in the history of television, if you don't. Laugh at this clip ,you must be dead!!!😀
Carl Ballantine was a well known magician when he wasn't acting Gavin MacLeod would soon be a co-star on The Mary Tyler TV show and latter command a cruise ship! Tim Conway of course would soon become known as one of the funniest comedic actors on TV. I remember when this TV show first appeared that some critics were doubtful that Earnest Borgnine, an Oscar winning dramatic actor could do comedy. It turned out he was very good at it and he is now more remembered for this TV show then any of the movies he appeared in !
Hi I heard about this show with Ernest Borgnine but it never made it onto our TV channels here in the UK so this is the first time Iv'e seen it so THANK YOU, Comparable to Bilko. Thanks again.
Tim has always been my favorite in the show, i liked the way he had to explain himself, i always wanted to give him a cuddle when things went wrong. RIP TIM💗⚓
Best TV SHOW ever made ! I Always Made Me Laugh , When I watched Mc Hale's Navy ! yes The Good Old Days Of TV , So Much Better Then And fun To watch Then Great Actor , And Bob Hastings who was on As well RIP With the Angels And God TOO ! Julie
+Julie Hastings --he worked very closely along side joe flynn..woudve liked to have asked him(bob) about joe..i wanted to ask bob,what happened to joes wife and the children since he passed away in 1974 under dubious circumstances..and if bob knew anything about joes life...yes it is a great show..if one wants to learn about script writing for television..this is the show to watch.
+Julie Hastings Amen to that, I couldn't agree more. As I have said elsewhere, watching makes me laugh out loud because the shows are so well done and that's rare in this day and age. P.S. A good and wholesome laugh is good for the soul, or so I believe.
Im glad that they put this on you tube now that everybody see the comedian genius is Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway and I really love this show as a kid so now you know the new generation can watch this is funny my favorite show thank you
I spent many days/weeks/months of last year searching for this ONE Fugitive episode (S4E11) missing from my old TV show "bank"! Thank you so very much for providing it and thank you for your time spent uploading as many as you have. We past 40's THANK YOU (and I'm thinking some young folks that never saw great actors is thanking you too)!
I remembered visiting Universal Studios back as a child and watching a few of the characters running a radio show from the lot near a tank with the PT109 in miniature in it...
RIP Tim Conway. Hope you're fighting EVILLLLLLLLLLL with Ernie up there! Make Mermaidman and Harvey Korman laugh like they never did in life! Have a peaceful rest Tim...
I remember this specific episode and how Ensign Parker (Conway) joined McHales crew. One thing people miss about Conway is to look at him you'd never think he was a great athlete. Did you see the way he fell from the boat at 9:18 and the way he ran at 12:38? In later years his skits included gymnastic feats that were very athletic. RIP Mr. Conway you were a good and funny man.
This is like a naval comedy version of Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs, with the title role played by Ernest Borgnine! LOL I remember those happy days of peace and prosperity. The party ended on Nov. 22, 1963.
I have no idea what branch of the service you were in, But in my careeer, in the Corps, we always managed to do both!! We have always excelled in Combat and numerous covert ops. And we always trained hard, prepared continuously in order to complete our missions. SuperSniperSal USMC Disabled Vet
I found that few 'inspection ready' naval units actually had their acts together enough to be top performers when GQ sounded for real, but the units that could be depended upon when the shells and missiles were flying had been too busy preparing for combat to be flawless in inspection. I had the honor to served in one of the latter, USS Caron (DD 970.)
THE FUNNIEST CHARACTERS ON THIS SHOW IN THIS ORDER ARE: CAPTAIN BINGHAMTON, ENSIGN PARKER, LT. CARPENTER, LT. COMMANDER QUINTON McHALE, FUJI, AND GRUBBER WHO ALWAYS MESSES THINGS UP.
I just watch a Tonight Show with Johnny Carson that Tim was on. He explained he was in the army in the special services ( I guess the part that entertain the troops). He also mentioned one time he accidentally shook up a beer, spray it on his commanding officer. He thought it was a friend trying to scare him. He said he had 2 weeks in the post jail to make sure it never happened again. As he said he went in as a private and came out a private. So the goof ball here kinda what he was in the real service. Going to miss him but so glad he can live in our memories on RUclips.
What a great premise! An overbearing captain who only goes by the book sends a bumbling ensign to fail in a rag-tag band of outlaws only to have those outlaws welcome him as their own. This only spites the captain but endears the ensign to the group. When it comes down to brass tacks the outlaws get the job done.
Anyone else notice the mistake on the sign to Leadbottom's office? "Capt. R.F. Binghamton, U.S.N.R." But his name was later told to be Wallace Burton Binghamton.
Chris Duke ...I reckon he was pointing at Stewart island, I remember the days when you could fire a shot down the Main Street of Invercargill and not hit anyone!!

I TRULY MISS THESE DAYS OF TELEVISION GREAT COMEDY GREAT ACTORS RIP GUYS YOU DID A GREAT JOB ALL OF YOU
When ever I see this show. F Troop Gilliagns island Hogan's heroes brings back memories of watching TV with the family in the 60s.
Unfortunately simple comedy like this doesn't exist anymore.
Thanks to the cockheads of society.
This is the first McHale navy ever. What a beautiful start 😊
They don't make shows like this anymore. Great scripts, great actors, great slapstick. Wonderful!!
And the jokes are clean jokes.
Without a doubt, one of the most fun shows on TV……absolute hilarious plots…..the good old days.
This is the first episode 😊 imagine how good the following episodes are going to 😊be.
RIP Tim Conway. You will forever be regarded as one of the funniest and best comedians ever. Today's comedians should watch your routines and learn what real comedy is.
Amen, John.
Touché because he was funny without being dirty and disrespectful to women
Exactly my sediments, sir. One of the BEST, hands down. In EVERYTHING he did. Today's comedy stars are funny, maybe if you're 20, and a Facebook cowboy🤠🙄⁉️
My Dad was WWII Navy (Destroyer Escort in the N. Atlantic) . I remember watching this show with him when I was kid .. He used to get such a kick out of ti
One of my favorite shows when I was about to turn five years old and it still is almost 56 years later. Old style comedy done right.
At 9:25, when Parker gets dumped into the cove, it shows how awesome Tim Conway is as a full-blown action comedian.
Back when comedy was truly comedy, unlike today. I miss those days.
Comedy doesn't have to be dirty to be funny.🤣🤣🤣
Everyone forgets Borgnine was a great comic actor.
That's how I first knew of him; as the doorman on the 90s sitcom The Single Guy
He beat the living daylights out of Frank Sinatra in From Here to Eternity, just 9 years before.
he was also a free mason and shriner. and Scottish rite
RIP Tim Conway. We Will Miss You So Much. Thanks For All The Laughs.
Boys don't be sad about Ernest and Tim
he's dead and the dead no nothing
My dad was a Motor Machinist's Mate/20mm Gunner on an LST in the Pacific during the war and McHale's Navy was the only show or movie about WWII he would watch. He especially appreciated the show's portrayal of officers.

When I commanded a NATO base in Italy, I used Quentin McHale as a role model. Got great results, and had the happiest crew in the Med. True story. You can ask my crew.
That is so cool. I bet you were the men's favorite commander

Mr. Parker's first mission
Watched this as a kid and didn’t realize how true it was to the Navy until I joined.
JOE FLYN DROWNED IN HIS OWN SWNING POOL AND TIM CONWAY DIED IN 2000 AND 19 AND ERNIST BORGNINE DIED FROM CANCER AT THE AGE OF 93 YEARS AGO AND HE WAS A GREAT ACTOR IN MC HALES NAVY 😔
Last year we lost Fuji the last of the crew. Long live McHales Navy !
Good show the 1960s and 1970s were the best years of T V good clean shows and good plots not like today.
Tim Conway is so funny. On the Carol Burnett he was great also. He played a Dentist on the C. B. Show and kept sticking the Xylocaine in his on arm leg. It was probably one of the funniest thing I've ever seen.
Harvey Korman about hurt himself laughing when him and Tim Conway did that bit!

Ernest Borgnine spent 10 years in the navy and was a Gunner's Mate in WW2.

50's 60's some 70's TV best time of tube entertainment. Rabbit ears and all. Jackie Boy, thanks for the vids. I have not watched or have had a TV for 5 years now. just don't want one or need it.
Thank you. Have a good time!
Tuesday nights primetime on ABC: Combat!, Mchale's Navy and F-Troop. I remember that when I was a kid growing up in the 60's. Even during war time there is some comic relief. And do not forget that those who served in our Armed Forces who fought and died during war time, lets not forget them. Let's honor them on Memorial Day, 2019. And of course every Memorial Day and our Veterans on every Veterans Day. Thank you for your service for protecting our nation. And thanks to you Jackie Boy for the upload!
To me, _every_ day is Veterans Day.
The guys really looked out for Parker sometimes despite his being naive! They often stuck their necks out for him but they used him to outsmart Binghamton!
Thanks so much for posting this! I used to watch this show with my dad and younger brother. In hindsight, life was much better then.
This show along with Combat were my favorite shows growing up.
I agree the two best. My late father loved Hogans heroes
@scottlewis8681 my dad was a pow. He didn't like hogan's heroes. Probably had too many bad memories.
ALL OF THESE VARIOUS OLDER CLASSIC TV EPISODES ARE REALLY GREAT TO SEE ONCE AGAIN SO MANY YEARS AFTER THE DAYS OF OUR YOUTH WITH MANY NOW VERY WELL KNOWN ACTORS BEFORE THEY REACHED THEIR ULTIMATE FAME -
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR FINDING AND POSTING THEM HERE.
When I was a kid we would watch this every time it came on. Love it.
It's no Hogan's Heroes, but there's something so relaxing and classy about these old shows
Daniel Gould
Did they have shows produced in Italy. I believe they did but not sure how to find them.
no lenses for no reflections of cameras and lights
@James Stalcup They're both hilarious, but nothing will top this, no matter HOW much funnier it is :)
It makes me so sad that Tim Conway suffers from dementia and is in a nursinghome,the man is a comedy genius, glad we have these shows to watch,check out the elephant story clip from carol brunette show,without a doubt the funniest comedy clip in the history of television, if you don't. Laugh at this clip ,you must be dead!!!😀
Winning the war with one laugh at a time.
Carl Ballantine was a well known magician when he wasn't acting Gavin MacLeod would soon be a co-star on The Mary Tyler TV show and latter command a cruise ship! Tim Conway of course would soon become known as one of the funniest comedic actors on TV. I remember when this TV show first appeared that some critics were doubtful that Earnest Borgnine, an Oscar winning dramatic actor could do comedy. It turned out he was very good at it and he is now more remembered for this TV show then any of the movies he appeared in !
I love these episodes. Watched these when they first came on TV
FIRST TIME I'VE EVER WATCHED EPISODE NUMBER 1
me too!
Hi I heard about this show with Ernest Borgnine but it never made it onto our TV channels here in the UK so this is the first time Iv'e seen it so THANK YOU, Comparable to Bilko. Thanks again.
It's got a fair number of writers and a few actors from Bilko, actually.
R.I.P. James Yoshio Yoda aka Fuji.
Loved this show as a kid, love it even more now. What a cast!
One of McHale's sailors grew up to captain The Love Boat...
And a copywriter at WJM.
Tim has always been my favorite in the show, i liked the way he had to explain himself, i always wanted to give him a cuddle when things went wrong. RIP TIM💗⚓
Best TV SHOW ever made ! I Always Made Me Laugh , When I watched Mc Hale's Navy ! yes The Good Old Days Of TV , So Much Better Then And fun To watch Then Great Actor , And Bob Hastings who was on As well RIP With the Angels And God TOO ! Julie
+Julie Hastings --he worked very closely along side joe flynn..woudve liked to have asked him(bob) about joe..i wanted to ask bob,what happened to joes wife and the children since he passed away in 1974 under dubious circumstances..and if bob knew anything about joes life...yes it is a great show..if one wants to learn about script writing for television..this is the show to watch.
+Julie Hastings
Amen to that, I couldn't agree more.
As I have said elsewhere, watching makes me laugh out loud because the shows are so well done and that's rare in this day and age.
P.S. A good and wholesome laugh is good for the soul, or so I believe.
I met Bob Hastings at Universal in 1966. Any relation, Julie?
Im glad that they put this on you tube now that everybody see the comedian genius is Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway and I really love this show as a kid so now you know the new generation can watch this is funny my favorite show thank you
I spent many days/weeks/months of last year searching for this ONE Fugitive episode (S4E11) missing from my old TV show "bank"! Thank you so very much for providing it and thank you for your time spent uploading as many as you have. We past 40's THANK YOU (and I'm thinking some young folks that never saw great actors is thanking you too)!
The Fugitive was hiding out on McHale's island? Wow, he was a slick one alright
+bah humbug lol Whoops...
Thank you. Have fun !
I remembered visiting Universal Studios back as a child and watching a few of the characters running a radio show from the lot near a tank with the PT109 in miniature in it...
I love that McHale’s Navy theme song!
God bless Tim Conway RIP
RIP Tim Conway. Hope you're fighting EVILLLLLLLLLLL with Ernie up there! Make Mermaidman and Harvey Korman laugh like they never did in life! Have a peaceful rest Tim...
I remember this specific episode and how Ensign Parker (Conway) joined McHales crew. One thing people miss about Conway is to look at him you'd never think he was a great athlete. Did you see the way he fell from the boat at 9:18 and the way he ran at 12:38? In later years his skits included gymnastic feats that were very athletic. RIP Mr. Conway you were a good and funny man.
I actually loved everyone of these shows and actors. They should have been tv longer.
This is like a naval comedy version of Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs, with the title role played by Ernest Borgnine! LOL I remember those happy days of peace and prosperity. The party ended on Nov. 22, 1963.
Jim, you don't know how correct you are!!! Everything went into the toilet!!! And it is never ever coming back!! Sorry to say!
Murphy's law, no inspection ready unit made it in combat and no combt ready unit every passed an inspection.
I have no idea what branch of the service you were in, But in my careeer, in the Corps, we always managed to do both!! We have always excelled in Combat and numerous covert ops. And we always trained hard, prepared continuously in order to complete our missions.

Murphy's Law is whatever can go wrong will go wrong.
I found that few 'inspection ready' naval units actually had their acts together enough to be top performers when GQ sounded for real, but the units that could be depended upon when the shells and missiles were flying had been too busy preparing for combat to be flawless in inspection. I had the honor to served in one of the latter, USS Caron (DD 970.)
Gruber is a con to his heart! He is so conniving that he is actually very funny! No matter what they pull they will always look out for Parker!
Awesome comedic military series.
If we could only go back
THE FUNNIEST CHARACTERS ON THIS SHOW IN THIS ORDER ARE: CAPTAIN BINGHAMTON, ENSIGN PARKER, LT. CARPENTER, LT. COMMANDER QUINTON McHALE, FUJI, AND GRUBBER WHO ALWAYS MESSES THINGS UP.
Earnest Borgnine didn’t have to grow into this role at all. He was skip from episode 1.
I just watch a Tonight Show with Johnny Carson that Tim was on. He explained he was in the army in the special services ( I guess the part that entertain the troops). He also mentioned one time he accidentally shook up a beer, spray it on his commanding officer. He thought it was a friend trying to scare him. He said he had 2 weeks in the post jail to make sure it never happened again. As he said he went in as a private and came out a private. So the goof ball here kinda what he was in the real service. Going to miss him but so glad he can live in our memories on RUclips.
While most people think of Tim Conway as part of the Carol Burnett Show, I will always remember him as Ensign Parker on McHale's Navy. Great comedian.
(Ernest Borgnine) heck of a great actor and a Vietnam Veteran. I salute you !!
One of my all time favorite programs!
Great show great writing! Thank you so much!
Earnest Borgnine was a good chap
My grandfather would've LOVED to be stationed on Taratupa!
So would I .
😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
What a great premise! An overbearing captain who only goes by the book sends a bumbling ensign to fail in a rag-tag band of outlaws only to have those outlaws welcome him as their own. This only spites the captain but endears the ensign to the group. When it comes down to brass tacks the outlaws get the job done.
Tim Conway and Joe Flynn made this show.
4:24 "Nasty but firm down there where it counts." I'm surprised that line made it past the censors.
Anyone else notice the mistake on the sign to Leadbottom's office?
"Capt. R.F. Binghamton, U.S.N.R."
But his name was later told to be Wallace Burton Binghamton.
Yes, saw that at 3:57
R.F. was his dad
R.I.P Tim Conway. :(
I watched the original McHale's broadcasts as a child. My father, a Seabee from the Korean War era, thought it was hilarious.
So much talent n this show theyre all passed on.
I’m glade I found All these old tv shows!
I Love McHale's Navy SOOOOO MUCH! Just wish I had a cat & McHale's Navy Lovin Man to snuggle up & binge watch it with!
I grew up watching this fine show! Old lead bottom is such a incompetent captain,
Tim Conway!
Funny how they assume nobody knows geography by pointing to New Zeland Invercargill as McHale's location on the map.
Chris Duke American audience 😮🤭🙄😀🇨🇦
Kevin Chappell Some of us Yanks have been to N.Z. I even married one...
Chris Duke ...I reckon he was pointing at Stewart island, I remember the days when you could fire a shot down the Main Street of Invercargill and not hit anyone!!
I loved this.show use to watch in the evening when I got home from school and still watch it on antenna TV keep it coming
