I have just purchased The A-Team season 4 and again it was another great season. I did not have any problems with any of the discs or any of the episodes at all. In fact I enjoyed all the episodes. I thought the bonus episode from season five was really good. The theme music and the opening credits of season five is really good, a very good change. I don't understand why they put that episode on season 4 as a bonus episode when people who have already bought seasons 1-4 are going to buy season 5, so why put that episode when they will have it again on season five? However I did enjoy watching it none the less so no complaints from me. I'm 21 years old and grew up watching the re-runs of the show and I have loved the show ever since. I haven't seen much of season 5 so I really don't know what to expect from that season. Some say that the ratings went down in season 5 and that season 5 was the reason it was cancelled, so like I said, I don't know what to expect on that season. I have ordered that season today and it should be here by next week, so I will find out then how season 5 is. I do know from watching this season, that The A-Team seasons 1-4 are great! I enjoy all the characters, especially Face and Murdock. Hannibal is also one of my favorite characters and B.A, to quote what Hannibal says to Amy Allen in the first season "He grows on you" I wasn't all that fasinated with B.A at first, but I've gotten to like him a bit now that I've watched the show for so many years now. I even came to like Lynch and Decker over the years. To see them say that "We caught the A-Team" and then they get away again, the looks on thier faces are just unforgettable. This season and show are great and would be for any A-Team fan to own.

Disk 3, Side B
"The Little Town with an Accent" ....... the disk fails to play at speed after Murdock is discovered undercover as Carlos Mendoza with a Z. Same
problem on another player too.

If you like the A-Team you won't be disappointed. They are even better when not interrupted with commercials.

By Season Four, the people behind The A-Team just put less and less effort into the story and opted for the same old, same old formulaic nonsense with fake car chases, phony crashes, obvious stunt doubles and poorly integrated stock footage.
Only about half of the episodes are worth watching, while the rest are so mundane to the point of being down right awful. The 'Uncle Buckle-Up' episode in particular is just horrendous and the infamous 'Cowboy George' (my eyes, MY EYES!!!) really is as bad as you've heard. I haven't seen it for years (I skipped right over it on this box set) but I remember wishing that the ground would just open up and swallow me, it was that bad. At one point you can even see Dirk Benedict barely containing his embarrassment.
The best episodes are not necessarily the ones with the best action and stories. When the show makes the most of out the four characters (usually with an amusing running joke with Murdoch) it can be highly watchable. A young Hulk Hogan even joins in for a couple of episodes.
The over-zealous Decker is replaced by equally incompetent General Fullbright in this season but he ends up being killed-off in the last episode (further proof that people DID die in this show), which is actually a complete rip-off of Rambo - First Blood Part II [Blu-ray], to the point of even hiring the same actors for the same kind of roles.
Thankfully, things really picked up for Season 5, though I can still only reccomend this to hardcore A-Team completists.
The DVD presents the show in absolutely shocking quality. Shot on 35mm film there are a couple of shots that are surprisingly crisp and colorful but I'm afraid that the rest of it is grainy, washed-out and as dull as dish water. The thin Mono soundtracks fail to impress also, and there are no worthy extra features.
