Loretta Swit recounted an incident in which McLean Stevenson stood up for her. “I went through a period in my first three years on the show when I would try to make suggestions about my character. Everyone appeared to be listening, but it was more a case of ‘Thank you — next.’ I’ll never forget something McLean Stevenson did. I made a suggestion at the rehearsal table one day. One of the producers said no, he didn’t think that would work. So 10 minutes later McLean made the same suggestion, but in a deeper voice — which of course meant he got more respect. The same producer said it was a terrific idea. And McLean said, ‘Why didn’t you think so when Loretta said the same thing 10 minutes ago?’”

My top three favorite actors on MASH are: (In order of opening credits.)
McLean Stevenson- I think he is a big part of what makes the first three seasons so great. In fact, I’d say he was the true star of the show during that era. He was hilarious and stole just about every scene he was in. I think he had potential for more serious moments too and I wish we had gotten to see Henry ecolve. I love Harry Morgan as well and think Colonel Potter was a good replacement, but I’ll always wish we had gotten more seasons with Henry Blake.
Tumblr media
Larry Linville- Larry probably had the toughest role on the show to play and he totally nailed it. Yes, Frank was awful but that was the whole point of the character and Larry played him so brilliantly despite being Frank’s total opposite in real life. In fact, the only thing he probably had in common with Frank was the Ferret Face nickname. Larry also knew when it was time to bow out, although I think it’s a shame there was no Frank/Charles overlap on the show. I think a Hawkeye/Trapper/Frank/Charles Swamp dynamic would have been interesting and very entertaining.
Tumblr media
David Ogden Stiers- I love the Blake/Trapper seasons the best, but I think David was the best actor out of all of them. He was great at both the comedy and the drama and stole the show on a regular basis, in my opinion. The more I watch, the more I wish they had done with the Charles character and given him more of a central role. He’s a major reason why I even watch any episodes beyond the Gelbart/Reynolds era. I think he was the true star of the show its last six seasons.
Tumblr media
Most underrated actor
Wayne Rogers- It’s a shame the producers and writers didn’t recognize and appreciate Wayne’s natural comedic talents. He was so funny and charismatic. He had so much potential as Trapper had he been given better material and a few more chances to shine. I wish he’d stayed with the show.
