Speaking of McLean Stevenson, did anybody mention him in this thread yet? I think I remember hearing somewhere while he was on MASH he had sycophants and handlers telling him he was too big for MASH, he needed his own show to showcase his huge talent

Henry Blake's plane was shot down over the Sea Of Japan

Ran across a quote from Maclean Stevenson the other day - “The mistake was that I thought everybody in America loved McLean Stevenson. That was not the case. Everybody loved Henry Blake. So if you go and do ‘The McLean Stevenson Show,’ nobody cares about McLean Stevenson.”
