Is it true that alan alda did not get along with larry gelbart
His character in Crimes and Misdemeanors is a based on larry gelbart.
shareProbably creative differences. And I wouldn't be surprised if Alda drove Gelbart to leave the show just like he drove away Rogers and Stevenson.
shareWhat nonsense.
Ken Levine sees it differently:

I don't trust that guy.

God forbid we trust someone who actually worked on the show, right?
shareKen Levine came on the show AFTER Rogers and Stevenson left. So how would he know what really went on? He'd just be taking somebody's word for it.
shareTaking someone's word for it while working on the show is still more trustworthy than believing some bullshït tabloid.
shareI don't really put a lot of credibility in Ken Levine's word. He seems like the type who will say crap and know people will believe him. Take this little gem from the trivia section:
In his blog, M*A*S*H (1972) writer Ken Levine revealed that on one occasion when the cast offered too many nit-picky "notes" on a script, he and his writing partner changed the script to a "cold show" - one set during the frigid Korean winter. The cast then had to stand around barrel fires in parkas at the Malibu ranch when the temperatures neared 100 degrees F. Levine says, "This happened maybe twice and we never got a ticky tack note again."
That sounds like a lot of B.S.

Yeah, sure. Meanwhile, you still haven't provided any sources for your idiotic conspiracy theories--and you NEVER will.
Welcome to the Ignore List, cretin.
