M*A*S*H: Operation Noselift

M*A*S*H: Operation Noselift

As with the previous Stuart Margolin M*A*S*H episode, a potentially good story is ruined by his character (this time Maj. Stanley "Stosh" Robbins) attacking Houlihan, and its being played for laughs.  Not that I'm crazy about the approval of plastic surgery but there are some funny lines and it's nice to see twenty-six-year-old Todd Susman (who seems to be wearing make-up to change the shape of his nose, but then we never see him post-surgery) as Private Danny Baker.

Bobbie Mitchell (now Nurse Lyons), Kellye Nakahara (Yamato), and Patricia Stevens (Nurse Mitchell) return.  This is the first of three M*A*S*H scripts from Erik Tarloff.
