The A-Team Season 5 Release

dvd-2Get ready for a trip down memory lane, because a favorite TV series from the ‘80s is making its way back into our lives and onto the store shelves. A-Team season 5 was released onto DVD.

A Brief Recap

It has been quite some time since The A-Team aired on television, so I think it is fair to say that we can all use a little history lesson. Set in 1972, a military commando unit was sentenced to prison by a military court for crimes that they did not commit. This team promptly escaped and continued doing what it did best, humiliating their foes and standing up for the little guy, surviving as soldiers of fortune. The A-Team was lead by Hannibal, and consisted of tough guy B.A. Baracus, handsome con man “Face”, and the insane pilot Murdock.

Features of the Fifth Season

While the fifth season of The A-Team contains the same action and humor that the series was famous for, there are changes as well. The team was joined by Frankie “Dishpan” Santana, who was a special effects artists and a friend of Hannibal’s. In this season, the team is captured by General Hunt Stockwell, and they are sentenced to a firing squad, all of them but Murdock. The story carries on with more exciting action and drama, with a plot twist that involved a change of heart on the part of General Hunt Stockwell. Though the fifth season of The A-Team earned mixed reviews and held a love/hate relationship with the fans, it is truly a collectible. Old and new fans alike will want this DVD in their collection, to serve as a reminder of the television we used to have and the characters that we will always miss.
