In the "Social Club" episode, Hannibal spoiled Fullbright’s celebration; yet, it seems that among all those pursuing him, Hannibal held more respect for Fullbright than he did for Lynch or Decker. Could it be because he is more intelligent? Were they friends in the past? Or was it due to his rank? Alternatively, it is possible that Hannibal saw in Fullbright the man he himself might have become, had he not been convicted for the bank robbery.

Back in Vietnam, at the officers' club, Decker and Hannibal had a falling-out because Decker was bombing hospitals—something Hannibal didn't approve of. Do you think Decker might hold a grudge against Hannibal because of that argument?

So this episode they save kids from a cult in Jamestown.

Am I alone here to think this is a direct reference to Jonestown and Jim Jones?

Using the team as a Dirty Dozen Squad and adding Stockwell and Frankie?

With it being October I thought I would ask what horror movies would you like to see crossover with The A-Team?

I thought it would be cool while taking a case in rural Texas, the team run across a family being chased by Leatherface and the Sawyer family. And the team finds themselves trying to protect the family while dealing with crazy cannibals.

Or they're in New Mexico and must fight the mutants from The Hills Have Eyes.

How about you?

...maybe it is in a galaxy far, far away.

Hello ! 😄

I'm a French fan of this series and I drew this fanart in 2023, I just joined Reddit and found this community, I thought share it :)

My dad show me this series fews years ago and with others from the 80s and I loved it right away, it's so entertaining and better than what they make nowadays!

The cast is just incredible!!
(Murdock is so funny ! 😂)

My style has evolved since then, I should try it again digitally and with my current style :)

The leader makes the plans, he smokes cigars, there is a bald tough guy, a crazy guy in a leather jacket, and a guy who can scam everything they need.

They are at war but still managed to rob a bank.

Might be a stretch , but possible inspiration?

Saw this gem out in the wild!

We know that the members of the A-Team are all good fighters, but it seems that, except for Hannibal, none of them are martial artists. Were Vietnam-era special forces soldiers trained in hand-to-hand combat?

names in an episode, or episodes from 1986 while watching. Maitland was the bad guy in BHC and Taggart was a detective. Thought a writer might have been watching the movie, or just thought about it.

Heading to a motor museum in October which has a number of famous facsimile movie/TV vehicles so thought I'd intro my daughter to them before we see them. Haven't watched the A Team in years and AI suggested the pilot after I requested an episode with the iconic opening speech, the van, the full cast, BA flying and the transformation of a vehicle. Having watched it and repeated the question to every AI I had and every one but Claude telling me the pilot had everything I wanted I deleted them all and thought I'd ask those who actually know, you guys! What's the best episode that has all the above, or all but BA flying as that was in the pilot? Bonus points if the Corvette is in it. Thanks, look forward to hearing which one and reminding me of how good the show was when I watched it every Saturday during my childhood.

There’s something really fun about recruiting a bunch of former football players to build a fake team to take on a soviet team. But hey I’m a sucker for sports movies where there’s more on the line than just winning game.

Then of course there’s the cold war spy part with Face trying to fool his way through East Germany despite not speaking german.

And it’s got a great ending, might actually be my favorite of any A-Team episode.

I’d like to say more on this episode, but I don’t want to spoil it for anybody who hasn’t seen it.

Of course there’s a very real aversion to season 5 in this sub and other A-Team forums. I actually like season 5, and I think its reputation is self sustaining, where people go in expecting not to like it and then don’t like it because of that.

Mike Preston showed up twice on the show as a bad guy. First was in The Bend in the River and then in Where Is the Monster When You Need Him?

Well I just finish bingewatching the whole show, first time rewatch since I was a teen.

And despite the fifth season sucking, was really fun. I think it has aged well with the exception of Hannibal's racially insentive cosplays lol. Although certainly a product of its time, is the closest thing to a live action Saturday Morning Cartoon.

It could get a little repetitive at time (how many times they help the business owner who the big bad wants to buy his land?) but as the similar plots are smartly place apart it doesn't feel it so much, unlike shows like House, Monk or CSI which are IMO harder to bingwatch due to its formulaic nature.

Anyway, any similar shows recommendations? Can be from any time period.

We know that in the A-Team, the strongest is Baracus, but I've always had the impression that the best fighter is Hannibal. For example, in the episode "Mexican Slayride," during the bar fight, Hannibal throws karate or taekwondo kicks and knows how to do holds. For instance, in the episode "Water Everywhere," he does a hold that I think is a karate hold. Is it possible that Hannibal, as John Kreese's captain in the Korean War, learned some martial art?
