Mash who is still alive

She is tough when she has to be; she is always on top of her game at work and she takes pride in the work she does. Long live MASH! I watched MASH with my late mom and dad when it originally aired. Oh, did they laugh and laugh; and I did too. My mom loved the theme song, although she said it was sad.

I bought the record for her one Christmas and she loved it. This site and the re-runs really bring back memories that make me both happy and sad. A lot of the people are retired, who enjoyed a laugh and could feel good about television. Even in a war zone we kept our sense of humor, just like in MASH. God bless all the characters actors.

Thank you. My daughter bought me the full MASH series for my birthday a few years ago and it is far and away better than any thing on tv for the last 20 years. Thank you to all the actors who made the characters come to life. Your post has been very pleasant and enjoyable.

Thank you for share. I will not fail to watch your site. I loved this show and will follow it in reruns for as long as I live. Funny show and fantastic stories lines, radar just told Henry that the paper he signed was top secret, give up?

Love and Marriage. I still watch all the re-runs and enjoy each one as if it were the first time I ever watched it! RIP Allan Arbus. Sidney Freedman was a great character because of you. Thanks for all the great memories and we hope the reruns stay in syndication as well. To whom it may concern Hello, I do have an autograph signed by Radar himself he was tour when they had the slot machine of the tv show. Thank you very much Miss Dana Glass.

I watch it everyday I can My wife can recite lines that are coming up in any episode before the scene happens. In fact am going to watch 2 right now. Newt Out! I am a grown man and im no girly type either.

Well I have cried a couple of times over tv shows,maybe three times and two of those have been when I watched to final going home episode. I just finshed watching it and I can barely talk so im typing. Just chokes me up everytime. Maybe it reminds me of my youth but I think its because I loved every character dearly. They played the final show again the other day and still got tears in my eyes when the whole crowd had to say their farewells.

A credit to all characters , production staff and extra who made a truly remarkable TV show. One of my history professors at Auburn University would end class early during summer semester so he and any of us that wanted to could convene at his house to watch the 2pm rerun of MASH. We did this every day during that summer session. Well done th and Prof. Just never be a show like it again! Try and watch all repeats when we can…. But I grew to love the show and then spent the next 11 watching it.

I now have the complete DVD set with the 30th reuinion show and the movie. David you joined the army? MASH is about the futility of war, of war mongering politicians and media who lie and send young men and women to die and to kill without question!!

War is an investment disguised as a humanitarian act. Propaganda makes you hate others and to kill them. I just hope you did not use Maj. Frank as your role model. Take care son. Alan Alda was so clever, I adored all the actors and their characters.

This show has meant more to me as the years have passed. My father, who adopted me, retired as a Lt. He had fond and heart-felt memories from that time. As a child I grew up with a stiff older man who reminisced of younger days. This show helped him and myself to bridge the generation gap! I appreciate the actors, writers, directors and all who were involved in the making of this show.

Re-runs or not, it is timeless for myself and now my children! Mash a show without equal. Look at the long list of great and positive comments about the show. Each and every character was unique and they all came together to produce a series that is timeless.

It has brought much joy to millions and will continue to do so for generations to come. I was married during the Korean conflict, so it was a very important time in my life. Being able to see the show in sequence now is wonderful. Bless everyone connected with that effort. There is nothing that comes close to this show in every way possible.

Thank everyone who is keeping this wonder on the air after all these years. Mash will live on in perpetuity as an important part of Americana. I never tire of seeing any of the episodes and they are all pure genius.. If anyone out there would like to see all the 11 seasons please check with your local library.. Kudos to all who wrote, produced, acted and in any way contributed to favor us with this magnificent series.

I always wondered why the names of the episodes were not given when they were shown. I honestly never knew they had names until several years later. Does any know why the names were not given? MASH always has been one of my fave shows. Only one thing about this article….

Simply stated Mash is a classic in every sense of the word. People will be watching this series long after we are all gone and enjoy it as much as we all did. It is truly a timeless work of art and creativity. Thank-you to all involved, actors, writers, directors, producers etc.. During high school I would stay up on Fox, waiting for midnight to come, as they would play 2 glorious episodes of this masterpiece of a show.

And a year and a half ago someone bought me the entire series on DVD… This is what I do recreationally at college well this and video games. MASH will never get old. So glad this is being repeated on television. Love mash.. I have the every season on dvd. My wife has learned to love it to.. Flagg was a favorite.

My wife and I watch the series every night on Brit TV, and are always touched by the kindness and sensitivity of every program.

Thanks to all the cast, again and again. I watched the show with my mum when it first started then with my two boys and now with my teenage grandson. I still love it. The best show ever. I have now got the box set and I have watched it all 4 times since getting it in love the show really can beat MASH especially Radar considering the show lasted 3 times longer than the war did.

In this day and age you cherish the things that make you smile! That is why I watch it with my 10 year old daughter, and hopefully someday with my grandchildren. Thank you to all involved!!! I still watch the repeats, and still find it fresh and alive as when it was first aired. Will never grow tired of watching it. Best series ever. Mash is a part of my day.

After work l take half hour to unwind. Mash is just the thing that makes me laugh. As a Korean war vet, I really loved the show, except the constant complaining about the food. They should have tried to eat what ever you could find, if anything, in a foxhole. My sons grew up watching MASH. Lying on the living room floor and doing home work.

I echo other comments. Beyond a doubt, the best ever. Kyra Sedgwick, Kevin Bacons real life wife Hansdome with all his white hair. I watched the show when I was a kid. I bought it when it came out on DVD. I have every episode and every special too. I just bought every episode of After Mash and Walter. I know that there was only one show of Walter but I wanted it to complete my Mash.

I love this show so much. It has touched my life in so many ways. I also love watching it when I am depressed, sad, or life has me down. It is great for a pick me up. It touch so many issues in life just not in TV land but in real life.

I love the show and I miss the actors that has pasted away. H in India came in I was so hooked onto it that i would bunk my classes to watch it and no matter where i would be during the day, i would manage to reach home before time to watch every episode. Now, comedy central been showing the same and i ensure i watch it come what may. Klinger too is so much fun and i loved the cameo of colonnel Flag. What class acting and writing, together with sharp wit, constant one-liners and brilliant characters.

A fantastic creation that really hits the mark and is delivered skillfully and bang on time. Full respects to all who made it happen. I grew up watching these fabulous shows and now I am growing old with them I still enjoy every one of the shows and they still make me cry smile and laugh and are still one of the most enjoyable shows on TV. I was a teenager when the show first came on air, used to travel to my late sisters home to watch it over a curry and beer, we laughed, cried and would not have missed a show.

The humour was very special, life was up there for all to see and I guess it steered me in my own life and how to deal with different situations. Thanks for all the information, on what happened to them all. We are watching the programme at the moment, and it strangely gives such joy.

I laugh and cry in equal measures. It was truly a great show and they all made it so. Do they get to see these comments, I wonder. I am only 11 but I still know mash season 3, 4, and 5 by heart and my children will also watch these seasons. A truly memorable show which transcends age and nationality I never tire of watching and each episode is funny and thought provoking in equal measure Thanks to everyone who made special programme.

Helping her sell these as a friend. Pass along to anyone interested. Mash is such a classic, great to see the reruns on True Entertainment every evening while having dinner.

The humour has stood the test of time, still so funny and I like the way the characters bounce off one another. The essence of a quality show. Simply Wonderful. I love watching mash radar is my favorite but they all make me laugh. This is April, What a classic. We watch it for an hour each night,,, still enjoy even the re-runs. I wonder if the actors ever thought that their work would live on and be so popular, even after some of the soles passed on?

I am glad that I am not alone here. I am so crazy about the re runs on True Entertainment UK that I have even bought a box set just incase I miss an episode. I have tried to get my friends interested in it, but I guess they do not appreciate the values this program brings.

As a boy I watched the original shows, bought a Mash T shirt and even visited the site in California. It was the very, very best present he has ever had! Every day we watch many of the shows, over and over. What a fabulous way to start a day! MASH was one of the best programmes on television. Today, it is one of the [very few] best programmes on television.

So wonderful to see it all again, without having to wait a week for the next episode. Might even buy the box set of all the series. I remember watching it way back when and watch it now jus about everyday on ME TV. It is a true classic! I agree with every thing i have read here,mash is the best comedy show that i have ever watched,the comedy is still on a par with any comedy show of today, other comedy shows from that era just do not carry the the comedy in later years Mash does that and more.

In the introductory scene an animal runs off on the top left hand corner. Please to settle an argument — is that a dog or a pig? It was a sad turn of what was an otherwise brilliant show. The humour never ages, the actors never fail to convincingly portray their roles.

Thank you all who served in front and behind the camera of the series, God bless all of those who have passed on, for when we still watch, you remain the same young faces, as ours grow old. Words truly cannot describe the joy and though it has been over 40 years since I first watched the series, my laughter still remains a tearful bellyache of genuine appreciation of great humour and superb acting. Jon PS… and phew! Only drawback is the canned background laughter. I also picked up some DVDs in a charity shop and a book with details of every episode!

A calssic and also recorded the 20 and 30th TV reunion shows which were very emotional. I own the entire MASH series. I pull the DVDs out every now and then just to watch, what I would say, times. I could not imagine anyone not liking MASH. One of the most memorable television moments that has stuck in my memory was when Hawkeye lost his mind over a suffocated baby.

Mash is back kjpw chanel 2 on the direct t. It is great to watch my mother and I use to watch it all the time. She is no longer with me but I think of her now that I am watching Mash. What a wonderful show. I still love it after all these years. Watching MASH is sort of like hanging out with old buddies. Gives me warm fuzzies.

I remember growing with mash every week we could not wait to see the next show Of course I was just a teen now I am 53 and I still miss the show. Always and forever mash. Best show ever! I watch it Monday thru Friday from 7 to 8! The only show I can watch over and over and never become tired of it.

Finally watched the final episode. What a powerful ending. Will never forget how truly great this show was. Watched M. MASH is timeless, it is still funny this many years after the fact, and never gets old.

Reading comments here others think so too, it has then the hallmarks of a true classic. Good to see that MEtv has it, 2 shows six days a week. Have just finished watching series 6 and loved every minute.

In the beginning MASH was pretty funny back in my stoner days but after watching reruns lately it was obviously biased leftwing propaganda crap. The best show ever made, I still watch it today, it still means something in this World full of unnecessary wars , is poignant, funny and touching all at once. I grew up watching it, it helped me develop an anti authoritarian attitude, and 30 plus years later I still have it and am still in love with this program and all its characters.

Bless them all for this gift of a show. I also have the entire series on a media drive and watch an episode once or twice a day.

This show epitomizes humanity.. Or rather a humanity that we all wish could occur sans the aspect of war. I grew up on the show since I was very young. I am well into my forties now. This show reminds me about kindness and how to show it even while living in a brutal world.

Much love to all fellow mash lovers and I hope to so someday run into one of living members of mash so I can shake their hand.

My wife and I hiked to the original filing site in the Malibu hills here in California. A must do trek for all lovers of mash. They still have remnants of the site left that is being taken care of by fellow mash buffs replete with the chooper pad and many other wonderful chestnuts. The t. But I still watch my reruns or watch them on my C. I was born almost four years after mash went off but I watched the reruns and its my favorite sitcom my favorite character is Hawkeye followed by radar it is one show I think will live on forever.

I cried when Henry died when radar went home and the final episode when everybody goes home. I wish thye would make a movie where they all meet in the states. I missed out on the Mash series when I was in the country area of Australia.

We are getting the replays from 6. Cheers Robin. I love the show I laugh so much it makes me cry with laughter I am my seventies and my wife thinks I am mad I have been watching it for years. Nothing better than MASH!!! Watched Alan Alders and mine hair turn grey as the series progressed. Lend a Hand … Dr. Anthony Borelli — The Consultant … Dr. Anthony Borelli. A wonderful show on many levels, innovative, moving,excellent blend of comedy and social criticism.

Does anyone know the name Larry Dilbert. He was my library teacher and quit teaching to be a writer for Mash Or so he said at the time. I would say that for the first 39 years I always looked forward to watching, now I say with a heavy heart that are getting old and boring. My son and I watch everyday I grew up watching masg it was one of my favorite TV shows. My son was only 11 when I found them on DVD butt he fell in love with the show.

Thank you for the memories and the great times with my son. McLean Stevenson should have stayed on…he was good! It took a character away from the show………. I watched it faithfully when it came on TV in and still watch at least 2 episodes everyday. Love them all…. This show has never been off television,, it is just so good. My late husband and myself used to watch M. I just wanted to say i have enjoyed M. H since i was a child. I laughed, cried, and rejoiced over the years.

I wanted to say thank you to all ……and God bless. One of the best written shows ever with a wonderful ensemble cast. I still watch reruns on History channel. I am only 16, but when my dad introduced me to this show years ago, I was hooked. This show is better than any lame thing that they call entertainment nowadays. I laugh and cry watching this show with my family, and I would give anything to have been alive when the show was still coming out with new episodes.

But you ARE Alive. That is the True Legacy of the show. That is why it is timeless, they knew that this was never done before nor will ever again. You are a young man. Search every scrap, every iinterview, article. Enjoy the hunt, young man. This show raised a Nation at least the good kids hahahaha. Mash Is my favorite show ever. I was pleased to collect all seasons on dvd, and will probably do the same on bluray when available. I was young during its glory years and, I feel like I grew up with the show.

I felt as if I were losing a friend when it went off. My favorite character became Charles over the years. I feel that they did a great job developing his character, and showed his more caring, giving side apart from his pompous exterior.

I certainly hope no one ever tries to remake this show. Watched it from the start. Have seen many TV re-runs. Now seeing it on TrueEntertainment again. In UK. Never tire of it, will never tire of the theme tune. David Ogden Stiers in the series is simply the best. Ive never tired of it either. This show is in my heart so much I have bought the martinis DVD kit every one of the shows the reunion, the fan I do believe that my favorite character of all time is Walter radar oReilly.

He is what I believe the most genuine character and greatest actor on the show. How I still miss not having new episodes to enchant me with the truth of war. Loved al the cast.

My son gifted me with the series. Sue miles. Right now, the local stations which carry it are back in the very first episodes and Exceptional show. So clever. Better now than when I first watched it as a kid decades ago, reflecting just how our appreciation must grow with the passage of time as we read new nuances in it. Sad to hear of some passings. I grew up with these wonderful people and think of them as a very intricate part of my life. I loved the political justice and the closeness of the characters.

It led me to the military but also led me to my husband who is very astute to political issues. Love you guys and thank you. We have the first three seasons on DVD. Watch them all every 6 — 8 months or so. In my opinion, the most entertaining comedy series ever produced. I totally agree. Loved both those guys. I was so sad when Col. Blake was killed. That was just of the episodes that made the show real. What a great way to spend the evenings, reliving the memories.

Nothing ever will. I love MASH, it is one of the best written series, ever. I watch it every night. It is painful to know that so many have died,but so many great taughs make up for the pain. Quite simply the best television ever created. Nothing else before or since is as good. This is the best of the best. I have no favorite characters, every single one of them is as good as the next, and they all remain individuals. MASH portrays every aspect of the human condition between tragedy and humor, and it never fails to entertain.

Keep those reruns happening! I love this show it is a shame some have passed but still loving watching it on television if you can give me any update that would be good. MASH is such a wonderful show that brings me back many years when I would hear the music at the beginning and at the end of the show.

I loved the humor along with the raw emotion that each cast member faced. I could watch this show forever and never tire of it. It definitely portrayed the ravages of war and yet the reward of living in a very different era. God bless those that have passed and I would love to see that reunion show. Thank you so much for the re-runs that are so precious.

I have always been a huge fan of MASH, due in part, to the fact I had served in Korea on the DMZ in the US Army and had experienced so many of the same sorts of situations and characters that the show portrayed.

I will always love that show, and could watch reruns forever. Thank you, METV for rolling back the years for me, once again! The thing I appreciate most about this show, and have since it originally aired, is that it assumed the intelligence of the viewer. Satire, double entendre, innuendo, all were delivered with healthy doses of humor and drama.

We relate to them even today because they are all, like the rest of us, damaged in some way. Their back stories are created in the form of home movies 16 MM remember? Then there was the first party viewer, as seen by the wounded, and in one case the dead, and the TV interviewer, done in genuine black and white.

It was all the right elements coming together at exactly the right time. I am in the process of watching all the shows, over of them…then I can watch them again having netflix. That was the best series ever on TV, thats why it lasted so long. It was human, and never for a moment did it play down the fact that a war was going on and people were being killed. I loved all the characters but had a real soft spot in my heart for Sidney Freedman, the psychiatrist.

He was so calm and kind under the worst conditions and sometimes had to take a lot of bad stuff. I loved the episode where Radar gives Potter the horse as a gift, I had tears in my eyes also….

A wonderful show,…. I concur. The evolution of all these characters… so realistic. He was heartbroken having to restrain a dear friend.

It was quite an emotional evening Kleenex helped. I miss all the cast I wish that all the cast would come back. To see each ather for all the fans. Could not be remade today. All the best to a tv series well done. I watch it more now, than when it was a weekly network show. The final episode was a record-setting event, with more than million people tuning in. Colonel Blake. Odessa Cleveland played Ginger Bayliss from through She was one of the MASH nurses most frequently featured in the first few seasons.

She also guest-starred on an episode of Trapper John, M. Nurse Bayliss was one of the few black actors that had a recurring part on the show. He never became a series regular, but his character appeared here and there for ten years. Many of his appearances in the early seasons went uncredited but as time went by, his part became more important to the episodes.

He played the role of Father Mulcahy in the pilot episode but a new actor — William Christopher — took over the role from that point on.

Morgan is hardly the only sitcom actor that lost a role after the pilot episode. Her contractual obligations for the final season of MASH forced her to give up the role. Mike Farrell played Captain B. Hunnicutt on MASH. Burghoff is notable for being the only actor from the movie MASH to reprise his role on the TV series two years later.

He left the cast in but returned later the same year for a two-part special episode called Goodbye Radar. Swit guest-starred on several popular TV shows in the early s, including Hawaii Five-O, Gunsmoke, and Mission: Impossible, but it wasn't until she landed the role of Houlihan that she became a household name.

These days, Swit seems to be mostly retired from acting. According to IMDB , she's only had one acting role since the s. Jamie Farr played Corporal Maxwell Q. At 87 years old, Farr is the oldest living main cast member from the show. He was the youngest of the main characters on the show, and he is just 78 years old today. Burghoff is notable for being the only actor from the movie MASH to reprise his role as a main cast member on the television series.

He left the show in , but he returned later that year for a two-part special episode called "Goodbye Radar.
