Stars Who Were Booted From Hit TV Shows
McLean Stevenson – M*A*S*H
The late McLean Stevenson portrayed Lt. Henry Blake in the CBS comedy-drama M*A*S*H. Stevenson’s role was a starring one, but he soon learned that it didn’t guarantee him job safety. Stevenson felt like his character wasn’t getting enough screen time.
Stevenson complained about his pay and found himself searching for another job. Stevenson realized that he had it good in M*A*S*H, and he should have never left the show. He later had a self-titled show that ran for 12 episodes, but none of his roles were ever as significant as the one he had in M*A*S*H.
