During an appearance on the Still Here Hollywood podcast, Farrell revealed that he had his initial doubts when he was cast in the hit '70s series as Captain B. J. Hunnicutt for Season 4. At the time, his character was written into M*A*S*H after Rogers' abrupt departure as the well-loved Captain Trapper John McIntyre.
Amid the joy, Farrell was inherently worried, knowing he was ultimately replacing Rogers in a central role. He knew the M*A*S*H ensemble cast had gotten close over the course of three seasons, and he was coming in as a newbie.

According to Remind Magazine, Rogers left feeling like his character, Captain Trapper John McIntyre, was being pushed to the sidelines. He joined the series, excited to work with Alda, but as the series progressed, a bigger emphasis was put on Hawkeye (Alda). Rogers ultimately felt he would feel dissatisfied if he stayed on the show, and was able to leave, seeing as he never signed an official contract.
