Harry Morgan, the prolific character actor best known for playing the acerbic but kindly Colonel Potter in the long-running television series “M*A*S*H,” died Wednesday morning at his home in Los Angeles. He was 96. His son Charles confirmed his death, saying Mr. Morgan had been treated for pneumonia recently.

Sad, sad, sad news.....way too young to die!

I wonder who'll replace him on M#A#S#H ?

I agree. He had another good 20 years left.

I actually liked Colonel Blake better. He was hilarious. Potter was an OK replacement. Too bad he's gone. I hope he didn't suffer.

I heard he suffered a lot when he found out M*A*S*H was cancelled. But not as much as when he first heard Dragnet was yanked off the air. Sad, all that suffering.....

The next time someone starts a obit thread, I would advise them to do so with a bit of respect or not start it at all.
