. Clear+Vivid with Alan Alda
Granted this is not as much about the show, but no one personified the heart of MASH quite like actor Alan Alda. An activist, on and off the screen, Alda remains Hawkeye — the conscience of the series. His podcast details current and relevant subjects of debate with the same ease and humour that defined his performance on the iconic series.

I started watching M'A'S'H in the late 1980s and early 1990s, thanks to video tapes that were available at my local video library. M'A'S'H was known for its unique blend of humour and drama, as well as its portrayal of the harsh realities of war. Captain Benjamin Franklin ‘Hawkeye’ Pierce, played by Alan Alda, was a masterclass in comic timing. Hawkeye was known for his wit, sarcasm and compassion, and he often used humour as a way to cope with the stress and trauma.

Years ago, I started watching the American series in college after we had just read Catch-22 by Joseph Heller. It used to air on television. Not many people liked dark humour, but I loved it. It was not preachy or a situational comedy. I had not seen a character like Hawkeye deliver lines with such dead-eyed expression for humour on Indian television. And because I had just read Catch-22, a satirical war novel, it was even more relevant. He was definitely my favourite character on the show. Positively, he was the audience’s perspective and eyes into the story.
