- He might not have been Hawkeye's first buddy at the 4077th, but he certainly made a lasting impression!

The Hunnicut/Winchester era was my years of this show !
77-81
Charles saved the show, BJ nearly ruined it.
Mine too
I absolutely loved it when B.J. said, "What say you, Ferret Face." Hawkeye couldn't even keep it together.
Something tells me Hawkeye never told him Frank's nickname
@@benlarsen4602 He does tell him 'Ferret Face' when they're drinking at the base, just after he missed Trap
@@AlyssMa7rin good point.
And the way he falls on Margaret. Probably turned her on
❤😂@@benlarsen4602
Radar and Klinger were great throughout the whole series. But when it comes to the rest of the cast, I enjoy the seasons with BJ, Sherman, and Charles.
Bj was more like a big brother to Hawkeye while Trapper was like his best friend.
I feel like this was the same thing, the first three seasons of the show generally felt like tomfoolery, with the CO of the camp not really caring about rules and regulations along with Trapper and Hawkeye both throwing it all to the wayside. When Potter and BJ came on it felt like those characters were really their own characters, Potter understanding where Hawkeye was coming from but still needing to oblige by Army rules and regulations, BJ felt exactly like a how you describe it. A big brother as opposed to Trapper that really just felt like a carbon copy of Hawkeye almost.
BJ was a refreshing character. And his first impression ment that he and Hawkeye would be best friends.
I loved this entire cast, all seasons!!! They were all special and they made this show special!!
The BJ vs Trapper arguments here sound a lot like Ginger vs Mary Ann.
I’m 43, too young to really remember the original run, but Fox32 used to run reruns during the day and on weekends, and I watched every episode. Several times.
“What say you ferret face?” Is the moment I fell in love with the show..
BJ is my favorite character!
I've always thought that Trapper John was funnier, and B.J. got all the thoughtful parts. But I'm not sure just which I prefer. Trapper too often was just another version of Hawkeye, even though as a married man his situation was very different. His character was in my opinion never really fleshed out (possibly due to his early exit) so we never got to see just what the street kid turned doctor could have become. B.J. on the other hand was almost too developed, with his role in relation to Hawkeye much more clearly defined. And the moral dilemmas he faced, oh my. He wasn't quite the roll with the punches type that Trapper was (though it would have been interesting to see how Trap would have handled some of the things B.J. did). The two characters were made for different eras of the show, the more satirical vs. the more morality play. It's almost like comparing apples to oranges.
MAH WENT TO HELL AFTER BLAKE TRAPPER WENT
MORE DRAMA THAN COMEDY
GOT WORSE WHEN RADAR LEFT TOO
When BJ got his mustache he also changed his attitude for the rest of the series
Bless his heart ❤️
00:7 🤣 I love him he is soo amazing 🌟I love watching this show with my father and I am 15 years old but I love this show ❤️💯
Same I also love this show but I’m 12
Has anyone else noticed wh much more advertising is added then when MASH first aired?
I always start watching the series from season 4.😉
It always surprised me about their attitude towards BJ's mustache is similar to modern attitudes towards them, considering this was made in the '70s and all the images we saw from that era had guys sporting one.
@2RAW4SPORTS Some thought Tom Dewey's mustache hurt his presidential campaigns in the 40s. He offered to shave it off. But his wife liked it. The last President we had with facial hair was William Howard Taft, elected in 1908. Mike Ferrell did get rid of the mustache after the series ended.
I love that guy. :)
Hi MeTv , I always liked bj hunnicutt , he was hawkeyes trusty sidekick !!! 😊
I love the lieutenant Colonel Henry Blake years McLean Stevenson and Potter/Hunnicut was great too
Without MASH, we may have never have known how great a comedian that Mike Farrell is.
Awesome
Wonderful!
He always reminded me of my uncle
Lovely.man.Mike.Farrell.😄.
Time Machine
Still say that mustache is way too 70s for this show. But then we ALL know MASH isn't REALLY about the Korean War, don't we?
I always preferred BJ over Trapper. BJ was always the quiet soul just accepting what life threw at him, and then he could just pull a smart comment off without looking as if he was trying for it. And he was just as good at getting the best of people as Hawkeye was. I really loved the episode where he bet that he could pull a practical joke on everyone, but in the end, it was Hawkeye who REALLY got hit.
Hunnicutt was a "wimp"--everything revolved around his wife and kid--"Peg and Erin this and Peg and Erin that"--they even did an episode where they discussed his kid's potty training no less--no Trapper was far better-more humorous and believable--not this all self righteous B.J. baloney
@@bufnyfan1 BJ was an underplayer, like I said. He COULD catch everyone when he chose.
But, yeah, he was there to remind everyone of the homelife no one else really could have, which did get tiresome.
@@bufnyfan1 Watch 1:37 again
B.J. survived because he could live in two different places; the 4077th, _and_ back home with his family at the same time.
And, that was a _good_ thing. Just ask the other soldiers there.
Remember when Houlohan shouted at him "The only reason you've got more to lose, is because you've _got_ more!"
And Hawkeye said "I don't think I can expand on that".
@@bufnyfan1 And, remember the scene at 1:26?
I bet you forgot all about Hawkeye and Trapper doing the same thing, once.
You forgot because those two _agreed_ and there was no conflict nor deeper examining of the issue.
Trapper and Hawkeye were so much alike that either of them could move the plot along in the same ways.
B.J. was very different. ⭐
And, because he was so even tempered, you didn't see when surprises did come out of him.
A Suburban Californian riding around on a motorcycle, in the 1950's???
Why would believe that? 😄
@Kali Actually, no. MASH was partly about the Korean war, but mostly it was about these characters, and how such people lived in and dealt with being deployed during _those kinds of_ wars.
Including Viet Nam.
Which episode does the monologue that starts with "Hawaiian shirts and red suspenders" come from? Thanks.
BJ was a lot Funnier then Trapper
Trapper was a partner in crime. BJ was a best friend.
BJ had such a cute babyface. I liked him alot better than Trapper. He looked best without a mustache.
Excuse me, how are you going to leave out "you know it's a good thing I'm a doctor, because I'm going to break every bone in your body"?
Oh no.......I hope to God he didn't die and I haven't heard about it yet.
I don't think he died !
@@johnroberts9560 Nope, he's still with us. Thank goodness.
@@kali3665 Hi Kali , thank you for replying back ! 😊
“When I’m president I’ll pass a law to banish mornings” it’s funny cuz he looks exactly like when joe Biden was a senator
That man was yummy! 😍😍😍
Hated it when they had BJ cheat on his wife.
Which wasn't shown.
First Wayne Rogers then Mike Farrell, they always picked the worst actors to play sidekick. I mean good for the overall cast but both men were WAY too good looking to be playing second fiddle with limited screen time, of course unless they're tip toeing never too far behind Hawkeye.
He was too preachy for me
Never did like BJ. Trapper was much funnier and more interesting. Better actor too, and definitely much more handsome.
I watched MASH up to the point where McLain Stephenson and Wayne Rogers left--after that the humor wasn't the same--did not like Farrel's character whatsoever--everything became "Peg" this and "Peg" that--got sickening--they even did an episode where they discussed his kid's potty training--no the first 4 years of MASH were the best--after than definitely not so much
Theere is no "Best of BJ".
Absolutely hated that character. Worst addition to the show, in my opinion.
Didn't like BJ, I always thought Trapper was the funniest.
Too whinny for me. And the comments about "Peg this &Erin that" is spot on. He was rhe weakest link, good bye 👋
I think BJ was weakest character in the show. Mike Farrell was not a good actor and was rarely given good sceens because of it. His self rightous attitude that he had in real life always showed. I watch the reruns almost daily because of the great acting and scripts. The show got better with age even though it was far from a realistic depiction of the military life. The haircuts drove me crazy as they did in most military themed shows at the time, even today.
I agree. I love the show, but I think BJ/Mike Farrell was just awful!
BJ Hunnicut = the worst casting decision and character development that ever happened to the show.
Worst character on the show!
Guy was a big baby. Always crying like a little b**** about his wife and daughter.
