The A-Team Episode Guide
Ten years ago/In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military
court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped a maximum
security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the
government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no
one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

The A-Team Episode Guide
Ten years ago/In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military
court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped a maximum
security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the
government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no
one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.
