The A-Team: The Complete Collection [DVD]

Been looking at things that I grew up with for my boys. This fits in great with Airwolf, and Knight Rider. A rollicking action series with strong characters and a cool, classic hero vehicle as well.

arrived on time and plays great

Just what she wanted for her birthday.

I decided to buy the DVD set rather than get it streamed through youtube, prime or other streaming services. I read their terms of ‘ownership’ and they could stop you from streaming videos at any time for any reason. When I purchase something it should belong to me. And if I want I should be able to sell it to someone else. Anyone who buys streamed videos not only don’t own them they might be prevented from streaming videos at all.I bought this set because it was $36. I looked at the cost to stream from online sites and the cost was between $76 and $110. This is ridiculous since the streaming service doesn’t have any costs for manufacturing or shipping the product. They get pure profit and then they can stop you from streaming any time at their whim, essentially stealing the product you paid for. This is like buying a refrigerator and the seller breaking into your house and taking the refrigerator away from you. How is this practice allowed? It’s a racket ran by thieves.The A-Team series is fantastic. I missed almost all of it when it was live but I’m now able to play it on DVD disks and if I choose I can sell the disks at any time. The disks are mine. But streaming companies ‘sell’ you the programs but they can take them away from you at any time. And you can’t even transfer your purchased videos to another streaming service. The greed in corporations is destroying the country.

Yes, like any other series, the A Team had a few duds - especially during the last season. Since the show may no longer stream or be on a television, I felt that $20 is worth it if you watch the show when you want. Of course, you could watch highlights from YouTube by why bother when you can watch the show unedited on this DVD.

Growing up in the 80s my parents rarely let me watch things with magic or violence including many cartoons so I missed out on a lot of TV growing up as a kid. Saw this on sale for $30 and my curiousity got me.The characters are fun, the story is silly but the episodes are entertaining. The violence is funny because most gun fights are determined by the side that makes the largest fireworks to repel the enemy by overloading their senses from the percussive onslaught. I kind of like this for cultural significance since nobody ever dies it helps regard life by avoiding death as disturbing but at the same time could be viewed as propaganda hiding realities of violence but obviously it doesn't intend its audience to take it seriously.Yes, this is good, simple, 80s kid fun that I never got to enjoy. The biggest issue I have is it's one you won't want to binge. The stories and characters don't develop based on my foray into 2 seasons. It's pretty much the same formula on repeat with a little different seasoning. They do a decent job of altering the stories but at its core someone is being extorted so they hire the A-Team. It would be nice for the plots to have more substance but as it is, I am in the mood to occassionly throw one on and it usually entertains with its fun surprises and characters who obviously love their roles.Disclaimer: I only finished a season and a half. The first episode does stick for half a second every 15-30 seconds for some reason which is distracting but the other episodes play smoothly in my player.

Great

We watched this series a lot together when I was a child. Brings back good memories. Now she finally owns it & she could not be happier.

I gave this set as a birthday gift to a fellow writer. She is a big George Peppard fan, and The A-Team was a television favourite of hers. Happiness abounded when she received it. She was thrilled! Thank you Amazon for a great gift!
