Father Mulcahey on M.A.S.H.

Oh come on, he was 84. Sad to lose him, but, seriously...

Who cares how old he was. We lost a lot of stars this year. This just added to the list.

2016 is not going away quietly.

Shocking that we're losing so many people in their 80's.

Those people beat the US life expectancy (79.3 years) (76.9 years for men).

A lot of people like M.A.S.H.
As anyone in their 30s or younger who Marlin Brando was and they'd likely look at you with a blank stare. Does that mean he wasn't a "star"? Guess he wasn't since they don't know who he was.

80 is the new 30

Even casual M*A*S*H fans know who Father Mulcahy is. But that's because of the popularity of the series, not the character or the actor. Christopher made a career as a background character on popular series (Gomer Pyle, Hogan's Heroes). M*A*S*H was the only series to bring his character towards the front (and that was due to the extreme longevity of the series and their need to come up with new plots for a tired series).
He was a background actor who lucked into a series that was popular enough to have their B team characters recognizable by name.
If he was a TV Star it was in the broadest sense of the term. If he was a star, so are Paul Wilson, J. Alan Thomas, and James Michael Tyler.

I used to watch MASH regularly when I was a kid and I didn't know who this actor was.
Everyone knows who The Godfather was.
