- Colonel Sherman T. Potter was one of the main characters from the CBS-TV series M*A*S*H; he replaced the departing CO of the 4077th MASH unit, Colonel Henry Blake, after he was killed off when his plane was shot down over the Sea of Japan at the end of Season 3 of the series. He was portrayed by Harry Morgan. At the end of the show's third season, McLean Stevenson had left the series, and his character, Henry Blake, died on his way home. Major Frank Burns had assumed full-time command of the unit at the end of that season, although it was to be short-lived (one full episode plus parts of two others). The producers wanted a different type of commanding officer for the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (MASH). They decided on a "Regular Army" commander, a man who had made a career out of the service, and was close to retirement. The producers chose Harry Morgan to fill the role, after the strong performance he gave as a visiting General earlier in the first episode of the third season, "The General Flipped at Dawn" The character was named Sherman T. Potter. Morgan had heard that Larry Gelbart based the name on his family doctor. What the T. stood for was however never revealed. Even Morgan never knew although he speculated that it might be "Tecumseh" as in General Sherman. Colonel Potter's first appearance on the series came at the end of the Season 4 opener "Welcome to Korea" where, in a preview, he is shown arriving at the 4077th MASH just as the P.A. system announces him as the new commanding officer reporting for duty. The P.A. announcer gives the date as September 19, 1952. Potter would be fully introduced in the next episode, "Change of Command".
