I remember on a thread on the old imdb board someone was discussing Frank Burns, and it occured to me that had MASH been a British sitcom, Frank Burns would have been the star. Our most popular sitcoms tend to revolve around silly people doing silly things. We tend not to make sitcom stars out of smart wisecracking types. That's true actually. Brits like the more anti hero, bumbling type who sometimes succeeds despite himself. I would have liked to see Frank win more often and have a more human side allowed to show through. He really was in an impossible situation in that camp. Yes, the odds were too heavily weighted against him I thought. I would have liked to see him come out on top occasionally. |
