M*A*S*H, a TV adaptation of the film, ran from 1972 to 1983, more than three times as long as the war it chronicled. It starred Alan Alda as Hawkeye Pierce and Wayne Rogers as Trapper John McIntyre. After the third season, Rogers left the show and was replaced by Mike Farrell as B. J. Hunnicutt.
He recommended that Hawkeye return to the 4077th for the end of the war to come to terms with what he had endured. In real life, Pierce would have faced a Section 8 discharge due to his emotional breakdown, having serving in Korea for at least two years in a MASH unit. In an episode earlier in the series, Hawkeye is mistakenly reported dead.
With Potter in Seoul and Charles incapacitated, Hawkeye takes command of the 4077th — and soon learns how difficult it is to be in charge. This is the first episode featuring a mustachioed B.J. Hunnicutt, which he will keep for the remainder of the series.
B.J. gets a call from Hawkeye's father — the Army mistakenly lists Hawkeye as dead. Hawkeye tries to take advantage of the situation, but it isn't as good as he thinks. He can't receive any pay, send out or receive any mail, telegrams, or phone calls. Note – Gary Burghoff, Loretta Swit, & William Christopher do not appear in this episode.
