Their introduction to Trapper John M.D., which starred Parnel Roberts. So you’re starring in Trapper John, M.D. Did you play him in the movie M_A_S\*H? No, that was Donald Sutherland.\* So you played him on M_A_S\*H the TV series? No, that was Wayne Rogers What have you done on TV? I played a brother on “Bonanza.” Really? Who else was in the show? What are they doing now? Well, the guy who played my father starred in a really dreadful science fiction series, and is now pushing dog food. And the guy who played my little brother is living on a god-forsaken prarie with a bunch a kids. Anyone else? There was my other brother. He’s dead now. How did that happen? Accident with a horse. Did he fall off of it? No, he exploded after eating it. \*MAD had that wrong. Trapper John was played in the movie by Elliot Gould.
