30. ALAN ALDA
As M*A*S*H's ''Hawkeye'' Pierce, Alda created a new kind of TV antihero: a martini-swilling, skirt-chasing jokester of an Army surgeon, who couldn't be counted on to salute but provided a reliable moral center in an increasingly senseless war. Take ''Tuttle,'' an early point of heartfelt absurdity: Hawkeye and Co. invent an imaginary
GI then quickly kill him off. Alda offers a deadpan eulogy: ''There's a little Tuttle left in all of us.''
