I rewatched M*A*S*H last year after not having seen it in decades and what I liked the most was how Margaret evolved from being a stock villain into a fully developed character. Loretta Swit really brought Margaret to life.

Hot lips Houlihan, Klinger and Hawkeye made that great show, a number of years ago I visited the MASH tv location just north of Malibu, it was cool, complete with the old jeeps,trucks and tents, the original Planet of the Apes movie was filmed there as well.

I wonder if it got destroyed in the fires?

They all did a great job on that show. I cant think of any weak links. Even Frank Burns played a perfect foil. Everyone was really good.

Actor#Jonathan Joss#-- best known for his work in the animated series "King of the Hill" has died after being shot by a neighbor in Texas, TMZ has learned.

According to San Antonio PD and eyewitnesses ... Joss got into a heated argument with his neighbor at a house on the city's south side Sunday night -- leading to a bloody confrontation.

Police say the unidentified neighbor whipped out a gun and pumped several bullets into the actor before fleeing in a vehicle. Officers responded to a call of a shooting in progress and received a description of the car.
Cops say the officers captured the suspect a block from the residence, taking him into custody.

He's been spiraling for a while. A history of substance abuse and mental health issues combined with a recent house fire that killed some of his pets.

He showed up to the KOTH Revival roundtable a few days back and evidently caused a little scene.

What a sad way to end.

Theres a statement out from Joss' husband that the house fire, pets and the shooting today was targeted anti-gay violence from the murderer.
Also says Joss saved his husbands life by pushing him out of the line of fire. And that reports to police about prior acts got no action.

Lots going on here.
