Hot Lips in the 1st season: Co-Villain with Frank "Ferret Face" Burns a married man with whom she was having an affair.. Hot Lips was a person of low character who would sleep/hookup with most any superior officer that could further her career -- thus her nickname "Hot-Lips" . Also, she would often go "Karen" on Hawk-Eye and Trapper (or anyone else below her rank). Hot-Lips was made the butt of the jokes along with Frank during the early seasons of the show.
Gradually as the seasons progressed, the respectability of Margret grew. She ended her affair with Frank and married colonel Donald Penobscott. It is important to note that the character of Frank went crazy and soon left the scene. Margaret was shown to be a capable head nurse although she sometimes rode the nurses under her too hard. Margaret also was no longer hooking up with any colonel or general that walked by her tent. Her nick name of "Hot Lips" faded away during the middle seasons.
During the latter seasons, Margret divorced her cheating husband Donald and grew to be a most respected character. As respected as Hawk-eye, B.J, and Colonel Potter.
I sometimes watch reruns of M.A.S.H on Me-TV. The early Margaret is very very different that the later Margaret.
