for awhile now, I've been mildly interested in the tv show M*A*S*H. i've seen one or two episodes, and was intrigued and amused, but more than that, the final episode of the show plays an important role in a book i love, The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.
two nights ago, I finally saw that episode, all 2+ hours of it.
and it confirmed my suspicions:
I have a massive, massive crush on Captain BJ Hunnicutt (played by Mike Farrell).
I do not have a crush on the current Mike Farrell, who at 68 is older than my own parents. I admire Farrell's political activism.
But the 70s Farrell, the one who plays Hunnicutt?
i can't explain it. I don't especially like mustaches. He's much more ... butch... than my usual "type." but somehow, he's just...beyond dreamy. And when he starts wearing black converse high-tops instead of army boots, it's even worse. That tall, lanky build (he's 6'3") is my ideal.
i want to watch all 174 episodes in which he appears.
over and over again.
weirdly, the internet features very few pictures of him - plenty of Mr Farrell as he appears now, but not so many as Hunnicutt.
this is very unfortunate.
I have never had a crush on someone from the past before. it is very strange, interesting, amusing, and mildly embarrassing.
but just LOOK at the man!
how hot is this???

Yup. Definitely yummy then. Don't be too embarassed. I kinda liked some of the 60's hunks in the old shows. These days some of them are older than Moses.
