Four more memorable people passed away in early 2025.
This group starred in most of the episodes of M*A*S*H; played the rememberable “NORM” on the TV show Cheers; was one of the engineers responsible for saving the astronauts on Apollo 13; and played memorable characters such as Chucky, Howard the Duck, and the dinosaur Tasha in Land of the Lost.
My third inductee into my SitCom Hall of Fame is M*A*S*H.
“M*A*S*H” is an American war comedy-drama television series that aired on CBS from September 17, 1972, to February 28, 1983. The show was based on Richard Hooker’s novel “MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors” and the 1970 film adaptation directed by Robert Altman. Created by Larry Gelbart and developed by Gene Reynolds, the series followed the lives of the staff at the fictional 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (MASH) during the Korean War.
