I realise there's not much difference between this and the normal Blu-Ray, but am happy with the little extras & of course higher-res episodes 😄

Hi all,

at least 20 years ago I read a great A-Team fic, I think it was on Fanfiction.net but I’m not sure.

In it the team goes up against some Italian gangsters at the same time that Decker and Crane close in on them. There ends up being a scuffle and Captain Crane and Hannibal are taken hostage. While the rest of the A-Team plus Colonel Decker have to work together to rescue them. Growing to respect each other as they do.

It’s probably gone forever but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask if anyone knows about it. Thanks!

They mentioned several times on the show that the A-Team was arrested and falsely imprisoned for a crime that they didn't commit, then became soldiers of fortune.

Why didn't they just go to lawyers especially like Johnny Cochran and explain what happened and try to let a lawyer restore their status and win their freedom?

Why run for years when a good lawyer can help them and allow them to have their lives back?

For some reason I liked the two hour pilot. I felt T's acting was better and they hadn't fired 10k rounds yet without hitting anyone.

Having said that, I also liked season 5. Characters like Frankie usually annoy me, but for some reason he doesn't. I liked how it was more mission/spy based. So they weren't just punching and shooting as much. The idea of a pardon / resolution was nice too. But that usually requires a show to know it's ending and with enough notice. That didn't happen here. Also by season 4 it had become a caricature of itself. Season 5 seems to reset that. Actually the final episode of Season 4 helped.

What's your favorite episode or season?

So obviously Stockwell assisted with retrieving the "bodies" after the three faked death after being shot with the blanks. But how much was he helping up to that point? It's implied somewhat that it was all Frankie and Murdoch up to that point. But I also get the impression they were implying Stockwell was helping all along. Just hard to tell what was the intent, if any.

Stockwell went to give them that offer before all that, so I assume he was already helping?

I watched Banacek. About 10 years before The A-Team. Peppard plays a private investigator. Only 17 episodes but they are pretty good. Basically a mystery show, where the event seems crazy but they somehow come up with plausible explanations. Banacek of course is the only the one to figure it out.

He's a bachelor, somewhat unemotional, but nice in his way. It's a good piece to show what the early 70s were like.

I recommend checking it out.

At some point the traditional Mr. T look that brought so many eyes to the show seemed to be phased out. I was just wondering if there was an explanation for this.

As we all know, the A-Team was a Vietnam War commando unit. In an episode of the second season, Hannibal refers to his teammates as Green Berets. Rambo, as we all know, is a Green Beret. The question I ask you is: Are the members of the A-Team trained to the same level as Rambo?

Hey everyone. Sorry if this has been asked already, but does anyone know about Dwight / Murdock in regard to how he is doing, what he has been up to, where he lives, etc.? I would appreciate anyone’s thoughts. I have been a huge fan of A-Team for 40+ years.

Thank you.

I just bought the Extended Blu Ray of the movie and watched it. I have to say, it was really fun to watch. A little confusing here and there and a little too much CGI there, but over all it was Awesome. Man, I wish we got a squeal with them on a case...

There has been a lot of women in the show, who do you think is the prettiest? Mine is Tracy Scoggins from the episode "There's always a catch" season 2 episode 9

The moment I saw this caricature from issue 23, I instantly remembered the episode "Champ". Think it's a coincidence? It was published during the Vietnam War, after all.

Cool interview with George Peppard. Informal, but personal. Touches on the show a good part of the time.

After all these years...I got them..not the best condition but I got them. I was thinking about buying more realistic US Vietman weapons for them instead of what came with them.

That is, Face joined the army because his girlfriend from the episode "The Last Church in Town" became a nun; in the case of M.A. Barracus, he joined the army because he was rejected from college by a classmate; but in the case of Hannibal or Murdock, it was never explained why they joined the army.
