Jamie Farr appeared on both film and television versions of MASH?

Answer 1

There were four actors who appeared in both the M*A*S*H movie and the TV series. Two of them who maintained the same roles were:

• Gary Burghoff (Radar O'Reilly)
• G. Wood (Brigadier General Hammond)

The other two who were in both but took on different roles were:

• Timothy/Tim Brown (Corporal Judson in the film and Spearchucker Jones in the series)
• John Fujioka (an uncredited Japanese Golf Pro in the film, and in three different episodes as three different characters - Colonel Kim, Duc Phon Jong and a peasant)

Answer 2

The only actor to transition from the Robert Altman movie MASH (1970) to the CBS television series M*A*S*H (1972-83) was Gary Burghoff. The regular characters were all the same up through the end of Season 3. Cpl Max Klinger was the first new character who was neither in the book nor the movie.
