Synopsis

Four Vietnam alumni are imprisoned for looting a bank when they were only obeying orders.

They escape and decide to stay together to train the all -risk agency and thus steal from the aid of the widow and the orphan….

Fugitives, they never stay very long in the same place.

The Toute Risks Agency (The A-Team in English) is an American television series which was broadcast between 1983 and 1987. The series follows the adventures of four former American Air Force soldiers who were accused at wrong crimes they did not commit. On the run, they form a special intervention team called "the Tous Risks agency" and travel the United States by solving problems for the people who need it, while seeking to prove their innocence.

The group is made up of John "Hannibal" Smith, a brilliant and charismatic strategist who heads the team; Templeton "Faceman" Peck, a manipulative charmer who uses his charm and his relationships to obtain information and favors; B.A. Baracus, an expert in mechanics and close combat who is often at the head of the team's missions; And H.M. "Howling Mad" Murdock, a crazy and brilliant helicopter pilot who is often responsible for the team's air missions.

During the series, the team faces a variety of criminals and bad guys, ranging from local ups to corrupt government agents and international terrorists. Each episode sees the team using their unique skills and ingenuity to solve complex problems and put the bad guys out of harm.

Despite the obstacles and the dangers they face, the team remains united and united, always ready to risk their lives for each other and for those they help. Through their adventures, they earn many friends and allies, including Colonel Lynch, an American army officer who helps them to prove their innocence, and Amy Allen, a journalist who helps them bring down the bad guys.

In the end, the team manages to prove its innocence and restore its name, but not before having lived many thrilling adventures and for having forged a reputation as hero.

Trivia

James Coburn was to play Hannibal Smith.

The 1st broadcast in the USA took place just after the 1983 Super Bowl.

An episode ("without reservations") which had been lost during the 1st broadcast of the series, was found and resumed its place during a replay in 1987. This episode seemed to be the penultimate, because Looping wore a T-shirt with the inscription "almost finished", while in the last episode he wore a t-shirt with the inscription "finished".

The gold jewelry wore during the filming varied by weight, ranging from 16 kg to 18 kg.

The initials B.A. of "B.A. Barracuda" meant "Bosco Albert Barracuda".

In an episode, it is revealed that the real name of Futé is not Templeton Peck. The complete list of its names, in chronological order is: Richard Bancroft (birth name), Alvin Brennar, Al Brennan, Al Peck, Holmes Morrison, Morrison Holmes, and finally Templeton Peck.

A final TV movie was to inform the agency in all risks, but the project was abandoned after the death of George Peppard.

The longest credits in the series, in the 2-Episode 05-18 season episode, the first part, (When You Comin ’Back, Rider Rider?) The Mustangs. The end genrique lasts more than 4: 32 minutes and the music was adapted to the Far West scenario of the episode. In the last images of the credits, a helicopter piloted by Looping (which wears a mask) follows a train, after a long repetition of the final sound, Hannibal, in balance on the walking of the helicopter, generous smile, cigar at the corner of The mouth, knife on the belt, hat on the head stretches a thumbs up towards the camera as a final stage (and Barracuda who sleeps, unconscious on the back).

The episode in which the real name of Futé, as well as the whole list of his speaks are revealed is season 4-Episode 08-68-mind Games (who is who?) Disposed on NBC on 10/26/1985.

The cigars that Hannibal smoke come from the personal reserve of Georges Peppard

In the episode "Prime hunter", the loop of Looping is interpreted by actress Wendy Fulton who is none other than the wife of Dwight Schultz

Mister T has just sell his hardware store for the victims of Hurricane Katrina

The Role of Templeton Peck Futé was played by Tim Dunigan in the 1st episode before being taken up by Dirk Benedict

A wink to another series is made in the generic 2nd that everyone knows, indeed we see Dirk Benedict making a sign as if to say "we wouldn't have seen?" to a cylon that passes in front of him, in reference to "Galactica"

Baracuda is called "sweetness" by her mother

In the episode "small private war", we can note the presence of Jack Ging (Lt Quinlan in "Riptide"), and Dean Stockwell (Al in "Code Quantum")

In the "racketeering" episode, we can see Yaphet Kotto who was the Mechant in the James Bond: Living and letting die

In one of the episodes, we can see Boy Georges who plays his own role, by the name of his name was even Francisé in boy Georges
