A team of ex-special forces soldiers on the lam from the military police (even though they didn't really commit the crime for which they'd been imprisoned) leaves a trail of explosions in its wake. But Hannibal, Faceman, B.A. and Murdock always stop to help the little guy against some corrupt local bigwig before escaping the MPs once again.

Critics Consensus

Iconic characters and formulaic plot make The A-Team a novel, but skippable series.

Jacqueline Lee Lewes Sydney Morning Herald May 14, 2021
Much ado about very little the A-Team may be, but as an escapist adventure, it works. It's flashy, fun, and totally fantastic. Go to Full Review Geraldine Walsh Sydney Morning Herald May 14, 2021
It's as though some very clever scriptwriters decided what had worked in every action film and TV series ever made and unashamedly plundered them, at times with tongue in cheek. Go to Full Review Brian Courtis The Age (Australia) May 14, 2021
It looks good and is coated in fine humor. People are wiped out with nary a squeal, never a drop of blood. Below the simple level of storytelling, such a program offers its audience many subliminal satisfactions. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Richard M @RT00984247 Jan 29, 2025 Complete TV garbage. The only redeeming quality is how comedic it is. So bad it is funny. See more May 7, 2022 Don't listen to the nay-sayers - this show was simply the best, and as important for kids and toys back in the early 80's, as Fortnite has been for kids and video games since 2017. A squad of 4 distinct characters running around with assault rifles, shotguns, pistols, and SMG's, shooting everything up, with no one ever really getting killed ... sound familiar? It's where that original X-Factor that kids have always loved with Fortnite came from. How they are not available as skins in the game yet is beyond me.
