Well, I have never found Alda anywhere near smug, irritating or egotistical. And you can say he ruined M*A*S*H but without Mash never would have been a great show to begin with.

You may be interested to learn that Richard Hornberger, who wrote the original book on which MASH (both the film and TV series) was based, under the name 'Richard Hooker', loathed Alan Alda's portrayal of Hawkeye Pierce.

As for Superman 4, well, the Superman movie franchise had pretty much fallen apart by that point, and given the film's obvious lack of a budget, the film most likely would have sucked regardless of the plot. Mariel Hemmingway was pretty hot though, I agree, but there's that whole Lois Lane thing, even when Lois is played by someone as off putting and unappealing as Margot Kidder.
