Oh, too bad. I don’t remember him in other roles, particularly.

In his old age, he looked a lot like old George H.W. Bush.

His character on the TV show was more of a sidekick to Alda’s.

In the book by Richard Hooker (I must be one of the few that actually read it-and I’ve also read most of the sequels-they pretty much suck after ‘MASH Goes To Maine’), Trapper John has a much, much bigger role than was portrayed on TV. It also reveals exactly how he came to be known as “Trapper John”.

“Stagecoach West”. Played the character Luke Perry, which seems funny now.

Darla lived a couple of blocks over from where my ex wife grew up. Small world and all that.

Wayne was a good balance for Alda. When he left, the balance was gone and the show became purely liberal leaning.

Got that right. When he left M*A*S*H and when Alda took over the entire show...well...it really sucked.

I still love watching it despite all the liberal crap. My favorite TV series.

Oh, right. I read about those people in “US Weekly” sometimes in the dentist’s waiting room.

Luke Something is a country music performer.

The best of the best. He was great doing the financial news stuff.

He got is old friend Peter Falk out of financial problems.

RIP Wayne aka Trapper John. Condolences to his family.
Not counting his financial world and his business show on Fox, he has a huge resume going back to the 50’s.
