Title: The A-Team Season 1

Description: Guiltypleasures don't come more guilty than The A-Team, television's onlytongue-in-cheek drama about the exploits of renegade Vietnam vets. Theprimetime series' 1983 debut season, gathered here on The A-Teameason One, was intentionally ludicrous, encouraging viewers to enjoysundry talents of a colorful cast and laugh off storylines perhapssillier 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 aband of fugitive American soldiers framed for a crime in Vietnam andnow thriving in Los Angeles. Hiring themselves out as soldiers offortune, 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 withhis trademark gold), and, most comically, Capt. H.M. "Howling Mad"Murdock (Dwight Schultz)--assist (mostly) ordinary people having aproblem with bad guys. The A-Team ostensibly charges large fees, butmuch of the time the guys seem to be doing pro bono work for thehelpless.
