A-TEAM
*George Peppard probably felt fairly comfortable in his role as the tough guy "Hannibal" as he had served in the Marine Corps.
*The very first episode of the A-Team TV show aired immediately following the 1983 Super Bowl game.
*Many of us may be much more familiar with Dwight Schultz in his role as "Reg Barclay" on Star Trek The Next Generation and Voyager.
*On March 31, 1985, during the very first "WrestleMania", Mr. T and his tag team partner Hulk Hogan defeated Paul Orndorff and Roddy Piper.
*During the opening credits of the series, you can see a "Cylon Warrior" pass by Dirk Benedict. Cylons were his enemies as "Starbuck" in the cast of the 1978-1979 series "Battlestar Galactica".
*General Hunt Stockwell (Robert Vaughn) came to the series in the 5th season episodes. He kept promising that he would help the A-Team clear themselves with the law if they would just do a few more little jobs for the government. He never fullfilled his promise. Maybe you remember Robert Vaughn in his best-known role as Napoleon Solo in "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
*The "B.A." in B.A. Baracus (Mr. T's character) stood for "Bad Attitude" and it sure fit the role!
