The A-Team	comment	The A-Team is one of the most famous of the action series of The '80s, airing from 1983 to 1987 on NBC.The four members of the A-Team are: Colonel John "Hannibal" Smith — played by George Peppard, he is The Leader of the team, a cunning Master of Disguise. Lieutenant Templeton "Faceman" Peck — played by Dirk Benedict, he is, well, The Face of the team. Captain H.M. "Howlin' Mad" Murdock — played by Dwight Schultz, he is the resident Ace Pilot, who may or may not be insane. Sergeant Bosco "B.A." ("Bad Attitude") Baracus — played by Mr. T, he is the team's strongman and mechanic, with a famous fear of flying.Each episode would start with a bunch of innocent people being menaced by a bunch of people with guns, who want their land, water, taxi company etc.They would go talk to a man who they thought would get them in contact with the A-Team. Most of the time, it would turn out to be a member of the A-Team — Hannibal in disguise who had to make sure the people in question are not part of a trap to capture the team.They would go along to the location of the activity in their Cool Car, which in their case was actually a distinctive-looking custom van — an odd choice for a group who are supposed to be in hiding. There they would do a lot of A-Team Firing, beat up the baddies and often MacGyver up an armored vehicle over the course of an A-Team Montage.The show ran for five seasons, with several minor cast changes along the way; the show's eventual decline was attributed to the constantly-recycled and extremely formulaic plot. Attempts to win viewers back, by both changing the overall premise and having the A-Team overseen by a former antagonist, worked for only a short while.Logic and credibility were usually ignored for the series' trademark over-the-top explosions, but the show never took itself particularly seriously, anyway: most of Hannibal's disguises were paper-thin, the villains were usually mostly-inept and somewhat one-dimensional, and the weapons that the Team cobbled together from miscellaneous parts were invariably more effective than the machine guns that the episode's villains used.A big-screen version was released in June 2010, with Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper, Sharlto Copley and Quinton Jackson as the team. The trailer can be seen on YouTube. Tropes go to the respective page.

The A-Team / int_10134c97	type	Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety
The A-Team / int_10134c97	comment	Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety: A second season episode features a sequence where Hannibal Smith attempts to help defend a young woman and her son against a prison escapee invading their home. Hannibal's way of telling the woman to lock the front door of the house is to gesture with his loaded shotgun in an enclosed environment, pointing it directly at her. Strange considering that both the character Hannibal Smith and the actor that played him, George Peppard, are veterans of the U.S. armed forces.

In the segment featuring the Hogan-Valentine match, the ending is altered to show the bad guys entering the arena to confront and assassinate Hogan (don't worry, they're stopped in time).

The A-Team / int_2bb951b8	type	Nobody Can Die
The A-Team / int_2bb951b8	comment	Nobody Can Die: Since it was classified as a children's shownote (not that that kept the censors in some countries, like the UK, from getting the scissors out), you have the ridiculous premise in which the A-Team amasses a massive arsenal of machine guns and weaponry, faces off against a similarly armed force, exchanges thousands of bullets — and everyone lives. It wasn't until the series 4 finale that a recurring character actually died on camera. Discussion of a death was permitted, and you see at least two people executed (with Gory Discretion Shot at the ready), at least in the first couple of seasons. Averted in "The Rabbit Who Ate Las Vegas", Gianni Christian's second in command pushes him out a window (we see him plummet into a fountain several stories below) and he's actively reported to be dead. Unfortunately, the A-Team gets blamed for it. Also averted in "Skins". In the opening, park ranger Kim comes upon a group of poachers. When their attempt to bribe him fails, they shoot him, and the viewer sees his body fall to the ground. Related to this, in cases where death would be expected, such as car crashes, there is always a shot of the occupants getting out, apparently unharmed. Made ridiculous with particularly rough crashes, and an exploding helicopter.

Face even lampshades it. Also the mercenary Insane Wayne from "Waiting For Insane Wayne." Upon hearing that his target is already dead and the target's teenage son is the new target he initially refuses to take the job, and only changes his mind when he learns the A-Team is involved.

They are later shown recapturing him, prompting Baracas to get the A-Team to do a rescue. A posse deputized by a county sheriff in Florida would have no legal authority in Los Angeles, and having private citizens attempting to chase a fugitive literally across the entire country would invite questions by every law enforcement agency in all the intermediate states as to why they haven't called in the US Marshall Service, and tracking down fugitives is their job.

The A-Team / int_37499c8	comment	Once an Episode: Hannibal, in disguise, contacts the clients of the week. B.A. says about Murdock, "The fool is crazy." (Or some variation on that.) The team breaks Murdock out of the insane asylum (until he's released in the final season). B.A. gets tricked into being drugged so they can put him on a plane. The team comes up with a plan that's Crazy Enough to Work... ...which involves Face pretending to be someone he's not... There's a bit of MacGyvering in an A-Team Montage... ... followed by a climactic Final Battle featuring lots of A-Team Firing. "I love it when a plan comes together." Other things that tend to happen a lot are Face jumping off the top of a van onto a bad guy, and Hannibal punching someone out and then putting a cigar in his mouth.

The A-Team / int_392372f9	type	Actor Allusion
The A-Team / int_392372f9	comment	Actor Allusion: In an episode with a science fiction con, a guy in a original Galactica Cylon suit walks past "Face". In the episode in question, it's actually Hannibal in the costume. The Actor Allusion was all Dirk Benedict's idea. While filming at Universal Studios for the second season episode "Steel", Dirk spotted a park employee dressed as a Cylon, and decided he wanted to film a little nod to his days as Starbuck. The director told him it was a dumb idea, but let him do it anyway. So, they had the Cylon-clad actor stroll nonchalantly across the frame while Face was all "don't I know you?" Fortunately for Dirk, the scene ended up being quite funny and they kept it in the credits up to season 5. There were also allusions to George Peppard and his previous roles: Hannibal's off-kilter words of wisdom in episodes such as "The Big Squeeze" seem like exaggerations of similar quotes he said as Thomas Banacek in Banacek. In the episode "The Rabbit Who Ate Las Vegas", Amy mentions that it's a shame Hannibal's being chased by the military as he is "a terrific actor" after Hannibal goes to great lengths explaining how he'll play his "character", a reference to Peppard's infamously stringent adherence to method acting, even when playing unchallenging roles. The entire fifth season episode "The Say U.N.C.L.E. Affair" runs on this trope as not only was Robert Vaughn a series regular and David McCallum playing the villain of the week, but the episode was structured to parody and reference episodes of The Man from U.N.C.L.E.. In one episode, Isaac Hayes plays a prisoner at the mercy of the top of the prison's pecking order. This seems like a huge reversal of fortunes compared to his time as The Duke of New York.

The A-Team / int_4bfcfa7c	comment	Kansas City Shuffle: In "Till Death Do Us Part", Hannibal brings back hamburgers for the team and the woman they've rescued. B.A., having heard them talking about flying, looks at his burger with suspicion and switches with Murdock. Murdock takes a few bites and falls over, apparently sedated. B.A., confident in having outwitted his teammates, takes a bite of Murdock's burger...and falls over himself, whereupon Murdock pops up and asks, "How did I do?" B.A. is aware of this in another episode, as he continuously switches hamburgers with his team by guessing what Hannibal would be thinking at that point. He eats the drugged burger after deciding that the last burger which would have the drug in it would be the one he started with. Murdock, while working as a waiter in an Italian restaurant and standing in for the pizza chef, is held hostage by mobsters who are planning to kill an attorney general due to arrive. When B.A. comes in to order a pizza while unaware of the crisis, the mobsters find out about Murdock's fairly standard attempt to call for help after finding a help request written on a paper napkin. What they didn't know was that the real message was the pizza that B.A. just walked off with, since he wrote 'HELP' on it with anchovies. Bonus points for Murdock probably knowing that B.A. hates anchovies, otherwise he and Hannibal would've eaten the message.

The A-Team / int_673999b1	comment	Locking MacGyver in the Store Cupboard: The A-Team tends to get locked in barns or garages full of machinery and explosive things. To the point where the trope could just as easily have ended up being named "Locking the A-Team in the Machine Shop" and been just as easily understandable. Lampshaded in one episode by Hannibal. Also lampshaded in one of the novelizations, when Hannibal notices how often the bad guys lock them in a room that has everything they need for them to escape.

The guards don't even bother handcuffing them.

Near the beginning of the episode, the team crashes thanks to Murdock having stolen their plane off a repair lot. Some of them, especially B.A., are not at all happy about this. Then, near the end of the episode, the team narrowly escapes Col. Lynch and realizes that, had they not crashed, they would have been right on time to fall into his trap.

The humor of the show is replaced by a somber mood, as the team reflects on their experiences in Vietnam. An emotional one occurs in the second episode of the series, "Children of Jamestown", as Amy has to confront the harsh reality of travelling with the A-Team: They're in a dangerous business and death is a severe risk for them, and that denying that fact is more dangerous than accepting it. The entire team (except for Murdock, who's on a side mision at the time) tries to gently console Amy and get her to accept that fact. note Even George Peppard!

The A-Team / int_c54d550d	comment	Novelization: There were ten books published in the 1980s; some (the first book just called The A-Team (was an adaptation of the pilot (generally shown in syndication in two parts.), When You Comin' Back, Range Rider?, The Bend In The River) were based on double-length episodes (shown in two parts in syndication), others blended together two basically unrelated episodes (Small But Deadly Wars welded "A Small And Deadly War" and "Black Day At Bad Rock," Old Scores To Settle used "Recipe For Heavy Bread" and "The Only Church In Town," Bullets, Bikinis And Bells was based on "Bullets And Bikinis" and "The Bells Of St. Mary's"). Only one book was based on one standard-length episode (Death Vows, based on "Till Death Do Us Part") and only one wasn't based on an episode at all - Operation Desert Sun: The Untold Story, the sixth in the series and the last to be published in both the US and the UK (the rest were UK-only). For those keeping count, the other two were Ten Percent of Trouble ("Steel" and "The Maltese Cow") and Backwoods Menace ("Timber!" and "Children Of Jamestown").

The episode "Curtain Call" — from B.A. looking after the injured Murdock, to Hannibal telling him that "we go out together or we don't go out at all", to Face risking getting caught by Decker to get the medical supplies needed to keep Murdock alive — is a long list of moments that demonstrate how much the other members of the group care about their crazy teammate.

The second was when it was revealed Morrison had been a traitor and had sent them in to be ambushed and killed, which gave them motive for Morrison's death. The witness who could prove that they weren't responsible ends up being killed by his criminal partners before the truth could come out.

Murdock sometimes takes a break from being a pest in B.A.'s general direction to insult B.A. B.A. actually complains about being saved from a life-threatening injury because getting Murdock's blood might make him like Murdock; Murdock encourages these fears after giving the blood. However, it's clear that they care about each other quite a lot. B.A. really worries about Murdock when Murdock is in trouble, and Murdock really does try well-meaningly to help B.A. learn to deal with airplanes, among other instances of sincerely meant aid. There is even one episode where the B.A./Murdock dynamic seems to flip, so that Murdock is giving B.A. much more grief than he's getting. B.A. also told off at least one person outside the A-Team who complained that Murdock should shut up, and it was nicely done.

The A-Team / int_e2c4b927	comment	Dub Name Change: B.A. Baracus's first name and nickname was changed in several countries: In Latin America is called Mario Baracus and is voiced by Mario Sauret. For the French, B.A. is Barracuda. In Italian, to keep the "bad attitude" pun, it's P.E. Baracus (short for "pessimo elemento", that is, "bad element"). In Japanese, B.A. Baracus keeps his original name, but is nicknamed "Kong". This is made clear in the opening credits, where each Japanese voice actor would do a short self-introduction (in character) when their character appeared on the screen. B.A.'s opening line translates as "B.A. Baracus, AKA Kong!" Templeton Peck's nickname "Face" was also changed in several countries: In Latin America it was downplayed, as they named him "Faz", which besides sounding similar is actually Spanish for "face", albeit it was said to be a play on how "Faz" sounds similar to the "fas" in "fascinador" ("fascinater"). In Spain, his nickname was "FÃ©nix" ("Phoenix"). In Italy he was called "Sberla" ("Slap"), standing for "Faccia da Sberle" ("Slapface"), an Italian slang for a lovable scoundrel. In Brazil, his nickname was "Cara-de-Pau" (literally "Wooden face"), a Portuguese slang for "cheeky", "daring" or even "asshole". In Poland, "BuÅºka" ("Cute face"). In France, "futÃ©", which means "smart". In Hungary, his name was "SzÃ©pfiÃº" ("Pretty boy"). In Russia, his name was "ÐšÑ€Ð°Ñ�Ð°Ð²Ñ‡Ð¸Ðº", which stands for "handsome". In Korea, his name was "ë©‹ìŸ�ì�´", which stands for "handsome" or "stylish". In Taiwan, his name was "å°�ç™½", as in "å°�ç™½è‡‰", literally "little white face", a phrase used to describe a good-looking, pampered, and sleek man.

The A-Team / int_efbfe117	type	Complaining About Rescues They Don't Like
The A-Team / int_efbfe117	comment	Complaining About Rescues They Don't Like: In "The Only Church In Town" the Mother Superior of the orphanage the team saves is quite unhappy with the Team using force to drive off the bandits terrorizing them. This is because the bandits are just a small squad from a much larger gang and angering them means the rest of the gang will return and try to destroy the orphanage. In "Harder Than It Looks" when the team rescues a girl from the terrorist group holding her hostage she fights them every step of the way and even holds them at gunpoint and demands they take her back. Her boyfriend is a member of the group, who has been questioning their methods and she knows the group's leaders are just looking for an excuse to off him. She's worried they'll think he helped her escape and kill him. In "Deadly Maneuvers", Murdock borrows one of B.A.'s necklaces (a sharp crescent moon) to cut their ropes and free them. In the process he inadvertently implies that B.A. is fat and also accidentally breaks the gold chain to the necklace, both of which B.A. complains about. In "Hot Styles" a large part of the plot revolves around the Damsel in Distress's unwillingness to let Face and his friends save her. It turns out the villain is also holding her young son, and she's afraid he'll be hurt if she tries to escape.

The A-Team / int_f178203a	type	Inspector Javert
The A-Team / int_f178203a	comment	Inspector Javert: The team always had a well-intentioned military law enforcement officer who honestly (if wrongly) believes that the team are bad guys and doggedly pursues them in a Stern Chase, seeking to get them. They were: Colonel Lynch in Season 1, with a one-shot return in Season 3. Colonel Decker in Seasons 2, 3 and the early episodes of season 4. Decker crosses into Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain territory, as he was the one who was most consistently a failure at catching them, and because of it never gets any respect from other characters. Temporary Substitute Colonel Briggs in a single Season 3 episode. General Fullbright in Season 4.

The A-Team / int_f42f96fa	comment	Would Hit a Girl:The gang are rescuing a kidnapped woman, Miss Teasdale, from the compound of a militia. She resists them because she's in love with one of her captors (who was her boyfriend beforehand and has begun questioning the group since he realized with what kind of group he was dealing). Since they're in a shoot out, Hannibal just knocks her out (offscreen) before resuming the rescue.

The A-Team / int_f511ea9b	comment	Product Placement: An odd case. The van was supplied by GMC, but the grille and emblems were then blacked out and obscured by a brushguard making it indistinguishable from a Chevrolet. Confusing things even more, the prop van used for build montages was a Chevrolet, and the blacked out Chevy emblem could be clearly seen in certain shots.

The A-Team / int_fb9e0265	comment	Team Dad: Hannibal smiles at (and sometimes plays along with) Murdock's antics like a parent watching their young child act out fantasies, he can keep B. A. under control, and he reminds Face to keep his wandering eye in check and focus on the task at hand. He also has this cute habit of referring to the other members of the A-Team by their military ranks (Captain, Lieutenant, and Sergeant, respectively), even though they've all technically been discharged, and they often refer to him as "Colonel." He always has unwavering faith that his men will get the job done, and his nerves of steel are likelier to be rattled by something threatening Face, B.A., or Murdock than him.
