I love the A-Team and find it hard to say anything negative about it,but I'd have to say that the last Season was mixed for me.The Season Four Finale"The Sound Of Thunder"was supose to be an introduction for Hannibal's long lost Daughter from Vietnam Tia Lione(Ithink that's how you spell her name any)and she would be the the new member at the start of Season 5.However,she was on a Soap Opra and when Season 5 started couldn't get out of her contract.So...that's when Franky "Dishpan" Santana was introduced.
Don't get me wrong I think the Actor who played him was a tremendous Actor and really tried to add to the show.But I never really thought he fit in quite well enough in the show.Now,in my opinion I think the first three episodes of Season 5 were the best episodses ever made in the show.And that alone would justify buying this season.But only two or three others are good.
the rest are just dull and in my opinion poorly written.One thing I didn't like about this Season was all the Episodes that involved Stockwell himself,although I think he was an excellent charecter to the series unlike Santana.
And I think everyone can agree that the last episode was a HUUUUUGE disapointment and not at all a fitting ending.I think it should been a two parter in which Stockwell sends them on one final mission for thier Pardons and he doublecrosses them,they avert it and kill Stockwell.But,that never happened did it?Of course not.What we got instead was a whiney little girl running around with a an old geezer untill they get to retirement home?WHAT!?And instead of the A-Team being the main focus a bunch of decrepid old people(not that I have a problem with older people at all)fight off covert rogue agents.DUMB!
Well,at any rate it's worth buying for at least 4 passible episodes and 4 great ones.I'm not saying don't buy,because I'd be lying if I said that.But for those who aren't hardcore A-Team Fans like myself and vaguely follow the series or never even seen it before,I wouldn't recommend getting this Season.Get the rest(Season 3 is the best by the way)and then maybe if you get fond for the A-Team THEN buy Season 5.

With "The A-Team: Season Five - The Final Season" on DVD, you can enjoy the final thirteen episodes of one of television's greatest action shows. However, this was definitely the worst season of the show. This doesn't mean that the final season is horrible, but it's nowhere near as good as it had been in previous seasons. The format of the final season is drastically different. The tone of the show is dark this time around, and even the humor cannot hide this fact. Even the season's best episode, "The Say U.N.C.L.E. Affair," is very dark, and has one of the few instances of a character actually dying ON camera.
The whole idea of the A-Team working for a top-secret organization within the U.S. government never really works. The Stockwell character is useless for the most part, and Frankie Santana is one of the most annoying characters I've ever seen on a T.V. show. But still, there were some good episodes, such as "Trial by Fire" (which features one of the greatest Murdock moments ever), the aforementioned "Say U.N.C.L.E. Affair," and the exciting, hilarious penultimate episode of the show, "The Grey Team." Overall, this was a decent ending to one of television's greatest shows. Fans of the show will enjoy it.

I loved it just as I did when it first hit TV:)I'm glad that I am able to own them all on DVD!

Not as good as the other seasons. The team is legal now and works for the gov't. It loses some of the fun. Still entertaining for the fans.

I bought this item as a gift for my husband, who is a Mr. T fan. I am a Star Trek fan so I like seeing "Howling Mad" Murdock. Of course this show is completely silly and meaningless, but that's part of what is so fun about it.
