  • Margaret Houlihan perhaps inevitably got tired of playing around with an idiot like Frank Burns. She then rushed into a marriage (Donald Penobscott) that failed; after that, she really blossomed more into her own person. She never again had a relationship with any other man on screen, including Charles Winchester. Perhaps the episode "The Nurses" really marked the turning point; after a feud with her nurses, they made peace of a sort.

  • I'm glad that Ms.Swit's character was finally permitted to grow and develop into a more caring and nicer person on"Mash"..otherwise..she would have remained a one joke type and she would have been written out of the show.

  • "The Nurses" is the first time Margaret shows her vulnerability, which makes her more human.

  • If I could meet one celebrity in my lifetime it would be this guy. No question.

  • @DarthSideous63 His political beliefs are very much what the show's beliefs were. So no harm done.

  • Scully was after her marriage.

  • When was Scully? Before or after her marriage? I can't remember.

  • Major HOT lips HOLAHAN was the only one on MASH that could make Army fatigues look sexy.LORETTA wit is a superb actress.

  • She will always be Hot Lips in my eyes.

  • @nubrubber he made perfect sense to me

  • Alan Alda's main problem is that he lets his political beliefs into Hawkeye.

  • @smwca123 Margaret Houlihan's shortcomings and all,she was a woman of principle and moral fiber.
