Guilty pleasures don't come more guilty than The A-Team, television's only tongue-in-cheek drama about the exploits of renegade Vietnam vets. The primetime series' 1983 debut season, gathered here on The A-Team: Season One, was intentionally ludicrous, encouraging viewers to enjoy sundry talents of a colorful cast and laugh off storylines perhaps sillier than those on Charlie's Angels. Co-created by Stephen J. Cannell (Wiseguy) and Frank Lupo (Hunter), The A-Team introduced Lt. Col. John "Hannibal" Smith (George Peppard), the cocksure leader of a band of fugitive American soldiers framed for a crime in Vietnam and now thriving in Los Angeles. Hiring themselves out as soldiers of fortune, Hannibal's crew--including Lt. Templeton "Face" Peck (baby-faced Tim Dunigan in the pilot, Dirk Benedict thereafter), Sgt. Bosco Albert "B.A. (for 'Bad Attitude')" Baracus (Mr. T, outfitted with his trademark gold), and, most comically, Capt. H.M. "Howling Mad" Murdock (Dwight Schultz)--assist (mostly) ordinary people having a problem with bad guys. The A-Team ostensibly charges large fees, but much of the time the guys seem to be doing pro bono work for the helpless.
Season One highlights include "Children of Jamestown," starring John Saxon as a Jim Jones-like religious cult leader who captures Hannibal, Face, B.A., and first-season sidekick Amy "Triple A" Allen (Melinda Culea). While the resourceful group invents a super-weapon out of farm equipment, crazy Murdock commandeers a helicopter and dynamite. Also good is "A Small and Deadly War," featuring Dean Stockwell as one of several uncontrolled L.A. cops committing murder-for-hire. "The Out-of-Towners" takes a page from the Death Wish movie series with a story about New York City shop owners harassed by a protection racketeer (Yaphet Kotto). Hannibal and company retaliate with machine guns (no one is ever seen killed in this series) and, more effectively, public humiliation of the villain. The best thing about The A-Team is the relationship between the four offbeat heroes, who may not always like each other (B.A. usually looks as if he'd like to leave Murdock in a shallow grave) but get the job done expertly. --Tom Keogh

I loved it as a kid and I love it probably even more today. The friggin' A-Team, man!!! Anyone who grew up in the 80s knows the adventures of fugitive Vietnam vets, Hannibal, Face, B.A. and Murdock. It's a great memory and also a sad reminder of how lousy television shows are today. There is absolutely nothing like this on T.V. anymore. The A-Team do-gooders for hire, but it seems like they're always working Pro Bono. It makes you wonder how they make any money at all. The show is sorta like ... Read More

When you're a kid you remember some shows fondly and some with distaste and when you grow up it changes this show is one of them. Let me say that while the actors aren't bad but when I started watching some of these episodes and seeing all the explosions and bullets flying I'm surprised that neither any of the A-team members or the people their fighting got seriously injured or hurt I mean they would just shake themselves off and just walk away. PLEASE! I know this show wasn't meant to be taking ... Read More

This was truly the best season of them all throughout THE A-TEAM's whole 4-year run on NBC and the season that made Mr. T a superstar and the season that made The A-TEAM an instant smash in the 1980's along with the fact that it was interesting seeing Dirk Benedict going from being Starbuck on BATTLESTAR GALACTICA to being Face on THE A-TEAM.
In addition; this was the season when The A-Team was in its honeymoon phase when the A-Team was hotter, they were slicker, they were sharper looking, ... Read More
