TV-14 -- Memorable TV dads
"Fox"
COMMANDER DAD
Col. Sherman T. Potter
“M*A*S*H”
Played by Harry Morgan
Henry Blake had his moments, but Potter was more consistently like a father to the 4077th. He was regular Army, but he quickly loosened up and treated his men and women like family. At the end of the day, he was a lovable mensch who was wont to say things like “What in the name of Marco blessed Polo is going on here?” And he hated Frank Burns, always a plus.
