Was never 188 cm, was 187 MAX. Classic ectomorph body and went down to 185-184 cm.

That’s funny because Alda himself seemed to have pretty poor to loose posture.

Watching some more Mash episodes, actually up to the departure of McLean Stevenson, then departure of Wayne Rogers and arrival of Mike Farrell.
I began to question myself on Stevenson’s advantage over Alda but my doubt seems only due to Stevenson’s incredibly poor posture which had him literally losing close to two inches in height. I’ll stay with his having a 1” advantage over Alda.
Here’s a reasonable contemporaneous photo of McLean, Swit and Alda. That’s pretty much the height difference I see when both guys manage to stand close to straight but both did have very slouchy postures and given the set, the ground was sometimes uneven.

I’ve been catching a few episodes of Mash recently, prior to Wayne Rogers departure.
IMO, the height order from tallest down appears to be Wayne Rogers, McLean Stevenson and Alan Alda. Stevenson looks to have 1 inch on Alda while Rogers seems to have 1 1/2 inches on Alda and 1/2 inch on Stevenson. Of course Alda could slouch badly so I tried to allow for that and/or judge him at his best posture. Stevenson’s posture could be quite bad also but he did straighten every now and then.
So, at least by my initial reckoning, if Alda was a solid 6’2” that would make Stevenson 6’3” and Rogers possibly as tall as 6’3 1/2”. If Alda was a bit less than 6’2” then the other heights would have to be pulled back accordingly. Of the few photos I’ve seen of Rogers standing with Mike Farrell, Rogers appeared to have the edge.but more photos of the pair together would be preferable.
I also saw an episode featuring Alex Karras. Alda was taller but it didn’t seem to be a full 2 inches (Karras listed 6’ even on his site). That could suggest Alda was quite a full 6’2” or conversely, Alex Karras might’ve been a bit over 6 feet but certainly never 6’2”!as he was listed during his football days.

I think 6ft2 is fair...there were five 6ft3 range guys on MASH who were taller. David Odgen Stiers, Wayne Rogers, Mclean Stevenson, Mike Farrell and of course Sutherland

I see that you finally downgraded his current height. Seeing him and Mike Farrell recently leaves me to believe that Farrell may be 6-2 now instead of his peak 6-3 or possibly 6-3.25

Who would you label the greatest actor director of all time? A real "sticky wicket." Gene Kelly was a great actor director and even shot "On The Town" which he directed DIRECTLY in New York City! (Try doing that NOW!) Clint Eastwood starred for 8 years on Rawhide even directing two episodes and won 2 Best Director Oscars! Ron Howard turned from Opie to Oscar winner for Best Director too! But my vote goes to Alan Alda for best actor director! Over half the MASH episodes including the finale Alda directed. He won 6 Emmys for MASH and ended it by saying "War is brutal!" That's why me #1 all time TV series is MASH!

The more I watch MASH, the more convinced I am that Alan was most definitely 6'2" when young, atrocious posture tho' can make him look 6'1" at best in front of our trio of 6'3" blokes ("Trap". "BJ" and "Charles" who may have edged out the previous 2 by a hair) - I don't think Mclean Stevenson was anywhere near 6'3", 188cm I could buy for him. Larry Linville looked a strong 5'11" at best. Larry's posture was quite good really, and he still looked 2" shorter than a constantly stooped over "Hawk". Strong 6' for Alan nowadays, musta lost 2" easy at his age. He gets 6' and some change from me.

I disagree that Wayne Rogers looked two or three inches taller than Aldan on M*A*S*H. People really underestimate just how much an inch discrepancy in height truly is. Trapper looked about an inch taller than Hawkeye. Also certain angles will make height difference appear more substantial than it really is.

He'll be 80 years old next month and he appears to have lost very little height. He may be six foot one, but has lost no more than that inch in height.

He still looked 6ft2 with Alec Baldwin in The Aviator and when he guest starred on 30 Rock. Also, dwarfed Mel Gibson in What Women Want. Probably still at least 6ft1 today if not a fraction more.

Larry Linville was never 185cm. I sincerely doubt he was ever 183cm. He did some theatre work in Canada after MASH (up until the early 90's) and while he would have been closing in on 60, he never struck me as much more than 5'11" (maybe 181cm) at that time. He was thin which added to the appearance of being tall.

I met him last year at a bookstore - and I would have pegged him around 6'3" or 6'4". My boyfriend is 6'5" and Alda did come off as around the same height. However, it was a brief moment, and I could have been off. He's tall, that's all there is to it! And you're right, he does slouch.

In a 1972 episode of MASH(First season)he stood face to face with pro football player/actor Alex Karas who was in his final season in the NFL, Karas was always listed at 6'2 his entire carear,they were about the same height, but if anything Alda was about a half inch taller, and Karas had a hat on! If Karas height is accurate then Alda was a big 6'2, 6'2 1/2-6'2 3/4.

Not anything over 6'2 and nothing under 6' if you ask me. It's hard to judge this man, sometimes he looks taller, and sometimes rather shorter.

Shorter guests on Conan's show always look close to his height If they are over 6-0 because his stage is tilted towards the actor's favor, not to mention Conan slouches slightly as well. Its a terrible judge to guess accurate height.

frank p - I used to think around 6' too, on MASH, but that was before I realized how tall most of the other principals were - Wayne Rogers, Mclean Stevenson, David Odgen Stiers, Mike Farrell. these guys are allo around 6'3", so Alda didn't look so tall, comparatively.

Now see, he's one of those I thought wasn't as tall as he appeared on film. He has that body type, the lanky look that I felt gavce him the 6"2 appearance. I thought about 6"0 on MASH. But, I gotta say, he looked very tall to me last season on West Wing next to Jimmy Smitts and the cast.

Only time I saw him in public was at the airport in Philadelphia and he kept ducking down to keep from being noticed then popping back up again to see if anyone noticed him. Difficult to judge his height with all of the bobbing and weaving he was doing. It was funny to watch.

I remember him being on a film with Michael Caine and Alda was a bit taller. 6'2'' or slightly over I think.
