A-Team Then and Now

They always brought their "A" game, and now, they are back for a second shot. "The A-Team" TV series centered on a commando fighting force that lived as underground heroes in Los Angeles while on the run from a "crime they didn't commit" during the Vietnam War. The cartoonlike violence of the show and the cast's ability to create weapons out of almost anything were signature themes. The original show's characters included Col. John "Hannibal" Smith (George Peppard), Lt. Templeton "Faceman" Peck (Dirk Benedict), Capt. H.M. "Howling Mad" Murdock (Dwight Schultz) and Sgt. B.A. "Bad Attitude" Baracus (Mr. T). (SIPA)
