Character Actor

Edgar "Mac" McLean Stevenson Jr. (November 14, 1927 – February 15, 1996)  Actor and comedian. He is best known for his role as Lieutenant Colonel Henry Blake in the television series M*A*S*H, which earned him a Golden Globe Award in 1974. Stevenson also appeared on a number of television series, notably The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson and The Doris Day Show.

Before becoming a star, Stevenson appeared as a contestant on the Password television game show in New York City, winning five pieces of luggage.  After this he appeared in New York City on stage, and in television commercials. He also performed on Broadway, and began to establish himself as a comedy writer, writing for the seminal That Was The Week That Was—in which Alan Alda appeared—and The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, performing occasionally on both shows. He also was a regular on the 1970 The Tim Conway Comedy Hour variety show on CBS. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, he also appeared in TV commercials for products such as Kellogg's, Libby's fruit cocktail, Dolly Madison and Winston cigarettes, in which he was shown sprinting around a parking lot of Winston delivery trucks and painting over the product slogan, replacing the "like" in "like a cigarette should" with the grammatically correct "as."

After guest-starring in That Girl with Marlo Thomas, he was cast in The Doris Day Show in 1969, playing magazine editor boss Michael Nicholson until 1971. Originally, he auditioned for the role of Hawkeye Pierce in M*A*S*H, but was persuaded to play Lt. Col. Henry Blake instead.

Stevenson appeared as a guest panelist for several weeks on Match Game in 1973, and again in 1978 on the daytime and nighttime weekly syndicated version. In 1981, he became a regular panelist on the daily syndicated version of Match Game, staying with the show until its cancellation a year later. He would make occasional appearances on the subsequent Match Game-Hollywood Squares Hour in 1983 and 1984.

After his departure from M*A*S*H, Stevenson's acting career declined. While occasionally filling in as guest host of The Tonight Show, Stevenson's first attempt at his own show was an NBC variety show special titled The McLean Stevenson Show on November 20, 1975. The program finished 41st in the ratings that week, and the planned series was ultimately scuttled. He then starred in a series of sitcoms: The McLean Stevenson Show (1976–77), In the Beginning (1978), Hello, Larry (1979–80) and Condo (1983).   During the 1988–89 television season, he returned to a supporting TV role in an ensemble, playing Max Kellerman in the short-lived CBS series adaptation of Dirty Dancing.  (Wikipedia)

Do you ever think about what would’ve happened if Larry’s first task as an apprentice had been to finish Adam’s game? What if Amanda hadn’t killed him? What if after everything, John made him go back into the bathroom to let Adam have a fair game this time, only for him to be too worried about making sure Larry got out alive & safe to fight for himself, only to realize Larry tricked him & wasn’t in this game to begin with

Honestly this version of the show keeps getting weirder and weirder Like why are there suddenly two nickys and one is emo??? like gawd damn whoever made this was on crack. Also like spoilers but i heard that murtang died in the series, but like nothing like that happened here, Ivan just ran into the room crying saying he got taken by police?? and then the episode cut??? Also why does that other kid have a fucking metal arm. now that i notice it, Ivan has a metal so that might be connected (AU belongs to me and @ivan-torre-apologist)

So @bitter-like-coffee and I started talking about the Fey main family bloodline dying with Maya (because we both agree she wouldn't put another child through what she went through and also she's a lesbian) and how Pearl would need to be in a better place before getting into a relationship and how Iris likely took a vow of chastity so the next character who has a smidgen of a chance to have a child with powerful Fey blood is LARRY and then...

Well then it became a funny little joke-that-spiraled-out-of-control (as one does). So say hello to Elise Butz!

The concept is that, because Larry is TECHNICALLY a part of the Fey clan (insofar as you take the Bikini stuff as true, which I think it is if only coz that's funny), any kid he has would have a chance to be spiritually sensitive and a halfway decent medium. But also I don't think Larry ever gets any so...

He has a kid with one of his girlfriends and she just foists the girl off on him the second she can because she is Too Busy For A Kid and Larry, earnest idiot he is, becomes a very sincere, very bumbling single father to a child who can see and-or channel ghosts.

She looks just like him—albeit she winds up model-pretty—and he names her Elise after Misty's penname coz he still really looks up to her.
