![The A Team (1983) Cast: Then and Now [39 Years After]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/F9ra9dLoAo8/mqdefault.jpg)
Even while they were being HUNTED across the country the team still had time to mourn a friend. That shows the kind of commitment soldiers have to fallen colleagues. That brotherhood still endures.
They have plenty of time. Colonel Decker has the instructions to let them finish the rites, or else the film director would fire him.
Commitment, brotherhood, and honor.
Its a movie kiddos. Its fake. Dont cry. 😆
@@paulterhaar4218 your plenty of fun at parties I bet.
@@thebbqbandito2868 you know all kiddo you know all.
The moments where we got to see them as a unit of soldiers and their bond are all really underrated aspects of the show.
Even as disgraced fugitives, pursued and hounded by military police, the A-Team still maintain their own unit discipline. They address each other by rank -- not all of the time, but often enough to emphasize that their chain of command remains intact. They respect Hannibal's authority as their commanding officer, and follow his orders even if they don't agree with him on everything. And despite occasional bickering (especially between B.A. and Murdock), they never turn on each other. Their loyalty to each other and their leader is never in question.
I just love the way how the A-Team looked in their uniforms! ❤🇺🇸👍
@@julieviola6787 They looked like actors who never bothered to ask any private how to properly wear them. Cringy.
Too bad they didn't have the resources to go all out on episodes like this.
The funeral sums up those bands of brothers who served, fought and died together. The A-Team are who they are: warriors
Smith, Baracus, Peck and Murdock. These men were amazing! I miss The A Team! They always had a plan! And it always came together!!!
hopefully the new American administration will vindicate this unit and they can be pardoned and return to the USA in their elderly years, god bless America these guys are no longer a threat.
@@Raptorman123 that would make an enjoyable ending to the saga.
they did it for the jazz man
Even though they couldn't hit the side of a barn at five yards even if their lives depended on it.
That plan always included BA
This episode was really touching it showed how human each member of the team was
8:46 is my favorite. The team saying I promise to Amy and then crossing their fingers is hilarious. 😂❤
B.A's flashback footage was from The Green Berets. You can see John Wayne in the shot, he's wearing the solid OD camo.
Ray Brenner sounded like he was a swell guy and a reliable warrior. Pity he died; he would’ve made a good 5th member of The A-Team
I like how Captain Murdock eugolgized Ray it was very personal he knew the difference between Crazy and Brave. And knew Ray was really the 5th member of the team.
This was one of the few times Murdock was actually serious.
@@dwightlove3704 it's always been a question of whether Murdock was truly insane or if it was just an act he put on to fool people, especially the authorities.
@@OptimusWombat I've always believed it was an act. He had a crazy sense of humor, but that's not the same as being insane.
@@rowanaforrest9792 I think the episode where B.A's mom was hurt showed that the insanity was an act. B.A. needed to get to Chicago as fast as possible, and Murdock warned him that meant flying. He was supportive, but 100% serious about the situation. He wanted to make sure B.A. knew what he was asking for.
@@rowanaforrest9792 I agree. In the pilot episode, he shaved spots on his head and elaborated a story regarding shock therapy. Then he also knew what trigger word to use, to have people think he would become " violent ". After the MP's left, Murdock had a silly grin on his face.
A fun show I loved growing up. But watching this clip here and now...it struck a different chord. Thirteen years ago...March 31st 2008... my father a vet...died after fighting lung cancer for 18 months. This scene brought back memories of his service. Police escorts....they drive ahead so no lights to stop us. All cars pulled over with their lights out and some got out and lowered their faces. I recalled a pedestrian dropped his face and covered his hat with his heart. When we got to the veterans cemetery... the two officers drove ahead so they could dismount their motorcycles and saluted as we passed. The part that broke me the most was when they handed me his flag. M6 mother and wife each used their handkerchiefs to wipe my face as the tears flowed as the gravity hit me. It's an intense time.
Great show and can hit you in different ways as time passes.
My husband was an army vet station in Korea in the mid 80s and he died seven years ago full army honer I felt very numb when I heard the salute now my son is a marine stations in Japan and u hope to god I don't haft to exept a flag for him.
@tiffany grever I've never understood why civilised people from the West have to go to the other side of the world to fight little men who have nothing whatsoever in common with us. Let Vietnam burn, let Korea burn, let Japan burn. Why should we care about them? They can fight their own pathetic wars, can't they?

Face, Murdock , B.A & Hannibal were the quartet legends 😁
George Peppard was still an A list actor. He was shocked at how NBC treated the cast of the A-team compared to other shows.
What happened?
@@Bashfulvideos1 Dirk Benedict said that even while the #1 show on TV they were never invited to big NBC parties where other cast from other shows had been invited. They were called Hamburger and the other shows were Filet Mignon. They had to share trailers, terrible craft services, things other shows got. In the end they were not even given a Wrap party, they were just told the show was over.
@@johnharris6655 And yet hamburger is way better than filet mignon, and more affordable to boot. Hence this show's enduring appeal.
@@johnharris6655 a top 10 show for three seasons
I think I recall an interview from either George Peppard or Dirk Benedict and they said “the network hated us and yet we were a top 10 show consistently”
One of my childhood TV heroes, always anticipating every show.
This was from one of my favorite episodes of "The A-Team" . It shows that despite all the gunplay, there was still room for personal sentiment when it was necessary.
I was always amazed that with all of the gunplay the only things that ever seemed to get hit were tires!
@@tomsampson8084 AND radiators, don't forget radiators!!! 😊😄
Without a doubt my favourite show from the 80's! From its recurring, villainous cast members to its numerous references to the Bond films, The A Team ruled Saturday night television for me as a 10-15 year old! Despite the behind the scenes friction (which I knew nothing of as a viewer back then) their sense of camaraderie was awesome.
What friction was there?
Mine 2
Agreed! And it's still one of my favorite shows ❤️
There is nothing worse than to lose those that were there with you and to be there for those they left behind this event. This is why we shall never forget there sacrifice!
... their sacrifice.
never, never, never give the A-Team a reason.....loved this show
This episode was the most touching of all the shows hands down! Such a great show especially this episode!!
one of the reasons i loved and still love the A-Team
That the Beauty of Stephen J Cannell shows he always showed Humanity.
I am a big fan of the 'A' Team, that and The Dukes of Hazard,Knight Rider these kind of programmes are what made the late 70's and early 80's such a pleasure to sit down and watch TV on a Saturday evening. Unlike nowadays when all they can serve up on a Saturday is a throwaway piece of televised rubbish hosted by a talentless plimp.
Don't forget McGuyver or Magnum P.I. , the shows back then were adventurous, comical and family shows. Miss them, nothing much like them today
I'd say A-Team and Knight Rider aged rather poorly. I liked the shows when I was kid but later had no reason to watch the shows ever again. On the other hand something like Magnum p.I. as mentioned above aged much better. Early 90s Tropical Heat is also fun up today.
I am a big fan also of those shows. They were the best!
Its all everybody else's fault isn't it? Classic Trump supporter.
Xxfigih
Classic series way ahead of its time, Face was the coolest scrounger ever,Murdoch the most funnest insane character of the 80's
As a 10/11 year old at the time I always dreamed of growing up to be just like Face. Little did I know I would actually end up far more like Murdock!
@@thebaron9059 Well said...same here.
crazy as a fox MURDOCH was actually Second in Command.
I remember back in 1983 of January after the Super Bowl. This show came on.
That's right, you have a good memory.
@@joeortiz9760 okay 👍
This makes me want to get all the seasons on dvd after watching some of these clips, I loved this show back in the 80's
I did a few months ago. It's well worth buying!
@@rowanaforrest9792 same
no need, some pirate out there has them 😂
@@rowanaforrest9792Me too.
I was always amazed about how when they got locked in somewhere there was always all this welding equipment there
@El Man they could McGyver their way out of any tight spot
Hahaha
Ray always had welding equipment with him,,,,, that and a good torch setup 👌
That's because the bad guys always underestimated them. Guess they thought they were just dumb soldiers.
I love it when a tv series comes together.😊
Mr T actually served in the Army. His military occupation was military police.
One of the Best tv show of the 1980's!
Smith: Bronze Star, Silver Star & Cong. Medal of Honor
Why I have to laugh at 5:12, just because of Murdock's "Yooaap"?! Lol 😂
The A Team look so dashing in their military uniform! Amazing soldiers!
„Believe me, they are not looking for trouble“
That’s wha she said.
Lmfao. The sheriff is the dude from Blazing Saddles.
The A-Team’s near! 😂
The A Team, Knightrider and The Incredible Hulk were my favourite programs when I was growing up.
It took a while for me to realise that Smith wasn't a full colonel but a lieutenant - Colonel.
In other episodes, Hannibal had the rank insignia of a full Colonel. As a fugitive, we know that he didn't get a promotion.
This was my favorite episode of the season
I was 8 when this show came out. Wanted to go to Vietnam so bad and see combat. Joined at 18 in 1993. Got to meet quite a few Vietnam guys. Did not want to see combat after hearing their stories. It’s fun watching the A Team at 47 now.
It's all fun and games til you actually see combat...never want to go into combat again unless the FBI tries to raid and take my stockpile. 😂
Great Episode. The A Team looks very cool in their military clothes. Amy also in a nice dress and very beautiful. I like her more with longer hair like here.
We need the A Team in Argentina!...""👍👊🇦🇷
00:47: The only time I saw Henry "Howling Mad" Murdock out of his usual goofy attitude.
In 4x21 he was unusually sane.
The episode with Murdock's real life wife was interesting. Right away I could tell there was something between them
There are several other episodes (or parts of episodes) where we see Murdock being completely serious, and each of them is one of my favorite episodes. I enjoy the change-of-pace episodes scattered through the seasons (though I love the entire show).
Hannibal has the Medal of Honor, Silver Strar, Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Army Commendation and more. Wow.
Great to see The A-Team wearing Class A's. Col. Smith, Lt. Peck, Capt. Murdock, and Sgt. Baracus.
In this scene, it is SP6 Baracus.
@@gobblox38 Ok, I'll go with that. Clearly you know military ranks better than I do.
@@jonstefanik9400 sorry just have to say it, *LtCol, and SP6 (now it's SSgt, almost got it tho.)
@@drwhite7285 in the episode when they were on trial, BA had the rank insignia of a Sergeant (E-5), and Hannibal had the rank insignia of a full bird Colonel.
the bridge blowing up and the medivac clip were taken from John Wayne's Green Berets
I loved this show as a kid, Mr T was my favourite. I had the action figure the van and the Mr T watch 😂
Wish I still had the watch.
That was the most jacked up funeral detail i ever seen.
Crazy but Mr. T was actually in the US Army. God BLESS Our Veterans........
Cool
Mr T(Lawrence Tureaud) was a US Army Military Policeman, 1975-77
Drew Carey and Bea Arthur were Marines and Dr. Ruth Westheimer was an Israeli scout-sniper.
Drew Carey: Sergeant USMC 1980-86,
Bea Arthur: Staff Sergeant USMC Women's Auxiliary 1943-45,
Dr Ruth: Israeli Defense Forces Scout-Sniper 1948-49.
Also, Mel Brooks (Melvin Kaminsky) and Hugh Hefner were in the army from 1944 to 1946, a Corporal and a Private First Class, respectively.
@@txgunguy2766 Mr T was Brave man he had to do what was Best thank u 4 ur service from 75-77
@@derrickjackson6737
He and my high school economics/government teacher were a couple of my fellow MPs, the largest an best armed gang in the world according to one of my drill sergeants.
@@txgunguy2766 my Dad was a MP in the Army i suppose to went in 1990 as a MP of work in in military court room
One of my favorite episodes
Now I wanna watch the whole thing
The Medal of Honor, an Army Distinguished Service Medal, Silver Star, Bronze Star, Soldiers Medal, 2 Army Commendation Medals and a Purple Heart plus a tour in Korea then multiple tours Vietnam, you did the Army proud LTC Smith. Now fix that beret soldier and drop and give me 100 pushups for your SNAFU!!
I don't think the even the President would have the stones to even consider smoking a Medal of Honor recipient, much less do it or have it done
They probably had to pick up those uniforms at the last moment. Not the sort of thing you'd carry with you when you're on the run from the law and literally living out of a van.
That beret was the first thing I noticed too.
I don't know who their consultants were, but they were amateurs when it came to berets, they wore them like a girl in Paris.
Amazing how Face looks like Starbuck.... and yet they came from different planets.
He played Starbuck in original Battlestar Galactica.
And they were both orphans too!
Good one 😂
I think I remember hearng that one of the planets populated the other one. Maybe one of his relatives was moved which is why he looked like Starbuck?
I wish to see a prequel on the A-team
Dirk Benedict said no matter what branch of the military, Colonial Warrior or US Army, he was always a Lieutenant, he could never make a higher rank.
Except he was a Lt Col in "Official Denial"
@@Trek001 Nice to see he got promoted.
Wish they'd kept Melinda Culea. A whole lot of good visually speaking.
So was her successor Marla Heasley.
With the exception of the actress who played the lady doctor, none of Culeas’ successors were as good an actress as she was.
It was George who suggested to get rid of her in case you didn't know
Interesting back story of the team in Vietnam.
Love the A-Team!
I so enjoyed watching A Team..
The berets.... in the military or making pizza....
Even a civillian should realize that's not to wear one lol.
I guess they had no military advisors.
They could have used them as helicopter landing pads. One thing that takes me out of a movie is a badly shaped beret. It’s the first thing we were shown how to do and woe betide anyone that turned up for inspection with one THAT bad 🤣
@@Buck3366 two things that irk me about military movies/shows, when they aren't taught how to salute and they are conventional troops in uniform and no haircut standards lol.
Drill was a bit rusty too, but they have been on the run with little or no access to a Parade Square!!
I was hoping someone would walk up to the sheriff and ask him "What in the wide world of sports is going on?"
Surprisingly that got the dress greens almost correct,better then most Hollywood stuff.
I did not know the Hannibal Smith character was a MOH recipient.
They're not looking for trouble but trouble found them and they're going to take care of it
ironic, huh 🤣😂
What this makes me feel is, how many soldiers passed to this little fanfare, just a few friends remembering what was? Those who served deserve better from we who remain. Whether you agree with the conflict or not, the sacrifices made in these situations should not be ignored, nor the hardships endured. Be grateful for the soldiers who preserve our lifestyle, or else be prepared to lose it.
I could swear I am seeing reused stock footage from the Green Beret movie in this A-team clip.
The bridge scene i thought that
They totally did!
You did
Bridge, medavac, and the scene by the water.
You totally did lol
Thousands of rounds shot and nobody ever hit !!
Stormtrooperitis
they didnt hit anyone b/c they didnt want to incriminate themselves, the A-Team are crack shots!
Not true - There were episodes where both Murdock and BA were hit
"May be you can hire.....The A Team" 👍
thank you for detail video as was a great to show to many watches on afternoon TV
"Believe me, these guys are not looking for trouble" is usually a bad sign for the insurance of choice
In the end credits, it easy to see unused footage. Smith can be seen chewing out the bad guys. I would love to see that footage! I'm sure it would ADD to a an already great episode.
Actually my favorite episode! 🇺🇸
I like how when the priest walked away with the umbrella, he accidentally hit the beret.
Son magnificos...!!
Please in spanish too the videos....
Just downloaded whole seasons from thepiratebay, can't wait to watch those guys at work again.. memories hehe👍👍
The actor who is Murdock eventually became Lieutenant Barclay on Star Trek The Next Generation. Face was previously Starbuck on the original Battlestar Galactica tv series.
Don't forget: Clubber Lang (Mr. T) fell in to hard times after his lost to Rocky Balboa... it was so bad that he changed his name and joined the Army as B.A.Baracus... His peak physical strength earn him a chance to fight with the U.S. Army Special Forces and win the world over as the Chain wearing Mr. T.
@@israelzayas361 Yeah that was true. Mister T died from some heart problems, I think?
Look Georg Peppard (Smith) has been awarded the Medal of Honor!
20 years sgo i attended a vets funeral his friends dressed in their old uniforms long hair and all to honar him
A group that I am a part of will be honor guard for the ninth time in January 2021. We do 70-80+ funerals a year normally. I believe that the group has members going back to the 1950s to 2013 continuously.
Leave no one behind.
80's explosions are so recognizable...ka pow powwwwww!
Smith has the Medal of Honor ribbon ?
Medal Of Honor with the Silver Star!
That was my favorite episode.
Me to this was a comeback episode
Essa foi a série que eu nunca vou esquecer. Amava ela e todos os personagens
Had an awesome theme song too
Was it raining , looked all november rain with the umbrellas ....loved the show had the a team van and figures back in the 80s
A nine-gun salute?! That's short-selling...
This episode looks like a tribute to veterans...
Wish President Trump would have pardoned them before he left office.
And then what? Hire them as his stooges???
They didn’t commit any crime, they couldn’t have accepted a pardon without confession of guilt of crime committed. Something they would never do.
They didn't need his dumbass Pardons the A-Team knew how to escape💯
He had exhausted his supply of pardons on his cronies already lol!
@Ron Dorin Ltfol
Man, I didn't know the A Team was available for funerals. I have cash. Wonder where I can find them.
So THAT'S all you got to do to defeat the A-team? Sheesh! And to think all that gunfire in all those fights was unnecessary!
I love how most of the flashback footage was pulled from John Wayne's Green Berets.
They really need to learn to shape the beret
Wait, Hannibal was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor?
Yes, for escaping the maximum security stockade.
Most of the flashback combat scenes were from the Green Berets, a movie starring John Wayne!
I loved The A Team!!! Nice!!!
All the way men
Mr T is wearing Spec 6 rank lol
And he was said to have been E7 Sergeant First Class
@@dwightlove3704 Up until 1985 the rank structure was split into two levels, NCOs and Specialists, Specialists went parallel with NCOs up to pay grade of E9. Specialists were not leaders.

I always wondered why they kept changing B.A.'s rank between SFC and SPEC..... And they did the same with Hannibal, it kept changing between Full Bird Colonel and Lt. Colonel
Roger that...and I see Hannibal is wearing the CMH ribbon...i never heard that explained in the series...
Loved this episode so much❤❤❤❤
They had m16s! I only remember mini 14s.
Probably used them for the gun salute. Normally I think they use M-14s at military funerals.
@@JnEricsonx 9 gun salute :(
In the first season they used M-16 with the original Fire supresor, then chance to the Ruger mini 14 in 5,56 mm.
@@albatrosnaval I was probably 10 or 12 and all I remember is the minis and not being able t o hit the broad side of TH barn . Still loved the show
@@albatrosnaval They had the Mini-14's after they faked their deaths and went to work for Robert Vaughn.
I watched this pre Army and now as a veteran I am going to have to gig these solders and put them on KP for failing class A inspection :(
But please note I am a huge fan of these actors :)
One of the reasons I joined :)
Not American but I remember my SGT asking me how many times he had to fix my "F'ing" beret when I first joined my Infantry Reserve company.
It's also strange: 1) that they have a bearing detail with only 3 soldiers in it, 2) that the bearing detail and the firing detail are the same detail, 3) that members of the firing detail are facing towards(!) each other, 4) that they seem to be using live ammo -- since they do not charge their rifles after each round they fire, which they would need to do if they were firing blanks from M16s without blank-firing adapters -- and 5) that they are only firing a total of 9 rounds for their salute instead of either 15 or 21 rounds.
Granted, they only have 3 soldiers other than Hannibal, but they could have easily just done a 3-man flag-folding detail if that were the case.
That said, I loved this show as a kid, and still do, but after spending many years in the Army -- where I have been tasked to funeral details before -- I can't ignore the irregularities and deficiencies...and those really are some jacked-up berets and "groomin' standurds," even for SF soldiers in the 1980s.
This guys look so handsome in their uniforms 😍
Initial battle scenes were 0from the movie "The Green Berets"
Ok
