Maharis became ill after filming the episode "Even Stones Have Eyes", in which he spent several hours in a freezing river. His illness worsened after filming "There I Am - There I Always Am", in which he spent several hours in the cold water off of Catalina Island. Maharis continued to work on the series, as he was not allowed to take a break from filming to recover. He eventually contracted hepatitis from an injection given to him by a doctor brought in by the studio, and had to take time off for his health. Maharis returned after a month, but suffered a relapse. He finally decided to leave the series, rather than risk his health any further. Executive Producer Herbert B. Leonard sued Maharis for breach-of-contract, which was settled out of court. Glenn Corbett was cast as Maharis' replacement, and Buz was never mentioned again.
