...Alan Alda often found himself opening up to Arbus.

Alan Alda was, is and always will be an idiot. Nice to see it confirmed. RIP Mr. Arbus. I liked your character.

I always thought that could have been a good show without Alda ruining it with his snarky, preachy, leftism. He was like a feminine Rachel Maddow.

I hear you on Alda, but the scenes between Hawkeye and Sidney in the final episode were some gut wrenching stuff.

IIRC his chracter became so popular he was put in the final show even though he wasn’t a regular.
