Mike Farrell talks 'MASH' and politics

"Alan Alda called me 'the Communist,'" Mike Farrell says, and laughs. "I was the most overtly involved in politics of anyone in the cast, but we all felt the same way." Farrell is sitting in a coffee shop in downtown Portland, sipping a smoothie and talking about two of his favorite subjects, "MASH" and politics.
