One of the many hit TV shows inextricably linked to the 1980’s is The A-Team, an action series with plenty of bombs, machine guns, and bazookas – where miraculously no one ever seems to die! Short for “Alpha Team,” The A-Team is a Vietnam-era crack commando unit wrongfully accused of robbing the Bank of Hanoi. Having escaped from a maximum security prison, the four man team survives in the anonymity of the Los Angeles underground. And with the government still hot on their trail, they’re forced to work as soldiers of fortune, providing aid and assistance to the helpless ssuncasino.com/blog victims of various injustices

The A-Team is led by cigar aficionado Col. John “Hannibal” Smith (George Peppard), a wise-cracking officer who always has a plan in the works. Hannibal is flanked by Lt. Templeton “Faceman” Peck (Dirk Benedict), the consummate ladies’ man; Sgt. Bosco “B.A.” Baracus (Mr. T), a gold-drenched muscleman afraid of flying; and Captain H.M “Howling Mad” Murdock, a lanky mental case http://query.nytimes.com/search/sitesearch/?action...gtype=Homepage#/ssuncasino.com who nevertheless carries out his missions with flawless precision. Together, they travel the country in B.A.’s trademark black van, fighting for justice and attempting to elude the clutches of the nefarious Colonel Decker (Lance LeGault) who wants nothing more in life than to capture The A-Team

The A-Team DVD features a number of action-packed episodes including the season premiere “Mexican Slayride” in which journalist Amy Allen sets out to prove the existence of The A-Team and its various good deeds. But when a fellow reporter is kidnapped by Mexican renegades, Amy gets a firsthand look at The A-Team’s handiwork when she hires them to rescue her friend Other notable episodes from Season 1 include “Holiday in the Hills” in which, following a plane crash, The A-Team is forced to do battle with a group of mountain men, and “One More Time” in which the U.S. government itself hires The A-Team to rescue a general and his daughter from South American guerillas
