Wrong hotlips.  Sally Kellerman RIP played Maj Houlihan in the MASH movie, and tall blonde in Star Trek TOS Where No Man Has Gone Before; with Gary Lockwood RIP.

Loretta Swit played her in the tv show.  We are down both hotlips.

I need to rewatch Race with The Devil.

Race with the Devil (1975)

Come on dude. What the hell? 

So a serious post, I used to read a shit-ton of novels that a lot of 70s and 80s shows and movies were based on.  I feel like Kellerman was hotter, and actually worked just fine for the movie, but Swit was a better Hot Lips based on the novel, and therefore better for the TV show.  But I think some of the movie actors fit their roles better than the TV actors.

Sorry brother, it’s been a long, hot, thirsty day. I’ll give this another shot tomorrow.

Shit, I'll say that Donald Sutherland was a better Hawkeye based on the book.

There were a lot of shit novelizations of TV shows and movies, and a lot of shit novels that TV shows/movies were based on, and for whatever reason, I read a lot of them (including Amerika, Kris Kristofferson's weird-ass Red Dawn series).

The original MASH novel was great. The follow-ups written by the original author were..not great, not terrible. The sequels were....partially/fully written by W. E. B. Griffin and....

One thing I think we can all agree upon is the original Radar was the best one.

Original in the series or original in the film?

The film Radar was much better than the series Radar

Definitely.

It was a good TV show, don’t get me wrong, but the book and movie were comedies with dramatic elements, while the TV show turned into a drama with comedic elements.  

Also, never understood the laugh track.  About 15-20 years ago, I got a big-ass DVD set/rip of the UK/European version, and there was no laugh track and it was so much better.

Personally, I can think of too many TV versions of a MASH character that I preferred over the Movie version.  Preferred Gould and Southerland,  Kellerman, I can't even recall Duke in the TV series, and  Duvall's version of Frank is soo much better than Linville's.  The one character from the TV series that I would have liked to have seen in the Movie version is Charles.
