Mike Farrell as BJ Hunnicutt and Alan Alda as Hawkeye in MASH
Summary BJ Hunnicutt went through one divisive change in his time in MASH, and it was all because of Alan Alda's Benjamin "Hawkeye" Pierce. On the heels of Wayne Rogers' exit as Trapper John McIntyre in MASH season 3, the famed war comedy/drama brought in Mike Farrell to fill the spot that he left. Playing the straightlaced family man from Mill Valley, California, BJ was quick to develop a good rapport with Hawkeye.

Between pre-mustache and mustache, Alan called and he said, there is this sense on the part of the producers that we're too much alike, 'what would you think about the idea of growing a mustache?' I said 'great, sure. I got no problem with that.' So that was the reason for the mustache.
How BJ's Mustache Signifies The Change In MASH's Storytelling MASH Tackled More Serious Stories Towards The End Of Its Run Close It's no secret that the earlier seasons of MASH were more lighthearted and silly than its latter years. While the show was always mindful of its storytelling, considering its backdrop, the creatives behind the show were able to get away with more out-of-the-box and serious storytelling as it grew in popularity.
