Okay, so this WAS a spinoff? Wow, I thought the characters only shared a name

I loved the theme song,Watched it every Sun.Evening,Gonzo Gates was gorgeous. This needs to be on dvd.

To Goofball-I have asked myself the same thing. Christopher? Okay, her folks were in movies etc., so she grew up in show business, but was the doctor blind who delivered her? Ah, like I should talk. I have friends named, Phenomena, Rhythm, Lyric, Kirby, and Lyric is the only boy. I won't even go into my own nick-names...
It would be cool to catch up w/Christopher Norris. Any one got a fan address? I heard she went back to school and got a degree in psychology. Cool!

Yeah, hard to believe this was a MASH spinoff. Enjoyed the show, though, as one of my Sunday night staples. Adam Cartwright as an older Trapper. Liked to look at Christopher Norris (how'd she get a name like Christopher anyway?).

I remember being so confused when my mom told me it was the same character from M*A*S*H. When I was little I didn't understand that a different person could play the same character.

Interesting Mash spinoff.

Oh yeah. This was one of the first. ER, St. elsewhere, Chicago Hope you name it. There was first Trapper John M.D.

funny thing though. This guy looked nothing like the original Trapper from MASH. I guess you have to use your imagination.
