Alan Alda Never Missed MASH

For the entire 11-year run of M*A*S*H, Alan Alda was the only actor to appear in all 251 episodes of the long-running series. While the show filmed in Los Angeles, he commuted every weekend to his home in New Jersey, where his wife and daughters lived. He kept up that routine for the full run of the show because he did not know how long the series would last.
