A recent article reveals the unexpected truth behind the beloved television show, M*A*S*H, by exposing the only co-star who truly despised Alan Alda. Despite the close-knit relationships between the actors on set, it turns out that one individual had an intense dislike for Alda throughout the show's run.
In the popular series, Alda played the iconic role of Hawkeye Pierce, a charismatic and compassionate doctor during the Korean War. However, behind the scenes, Wayne Rogers, who portrayed Trapper John McIntyre, harbored strong negative feelings towards Alda.
Rogers, known for his wit and charm, was evidently threatened by Alda's talent and popularity. The tension between the two actors reached a peak when Rogers decided to exit the show after only three seasons due to his dissatisfaction with Alda's increasing prominence.
Although the rest of the cast maintained strong friendships and collaborated well together, Rogers admitted that he felt Alda was trying to dominate the show. His disdain for Alda even extended to the point where he refused to attend the cast reunions for many years.
The revelation of this animosity between Rogers and Alda offers a new perspective on the dynamics of M*A*S*H.
