    The Season The A-Team Bit The Dust! , 2008-01-25
This 1986-87 Season of The A-Team was the worst season of them all, because the team makes a new transition from being for hire and on the run from the Army to being assigned to a mission by Gen. Stockwell(Bob Vaughn), which the team seemed to despise leaving kind of love hate relationship between the team and Stockwell, which made the show kind of cheesy and less interesting and less sophisticated with less action than the first 4 seasons along with the fact that this was the season that caused the show to cancel and caused the ratings to go down the toilet making the show go all the way down to the bottom of the list.
br /
br /Therefore, you could say that Stockwell stold and KO'd the thunder and popularity of this show, since the team being for hire and on the run from the military is part of what made The A-Team so popular during the first 4 years of that show, but since Stockwell captured the A-Team in the Fifth Season, it was like the team was kissing up to him ever since in order to keep the military from continuing to attempt catching them, but the A-Team would always seem to be so reluctant going on whatever mission Stockwell assigned them, unlike the case in the first 4 seasons, because for instance, whenever the A-Team got hired after Hannibal would do a screening out process interview with each client who wanted to hire the A-Team in the first 4 years of that show.
br /
br /Therefore, it was like the team was always kissing tail to Stockwell after Stockwell saved the team from being executed after their trial when things didn't work well for the team in court causing the team to be indebted to Stockwell for the rest of their lives, which I'm sure was another thing that caused this show to flop and end up cancelling.

    Worst Season Yet!, 2007-12-08
I personally love this show, but this season first of all is a ripoff because it's only like half a season, but also I can't stand the fact that they never properly ended the series. There is a few good episodes thrown in here, so don't get me wrong, but for one if you watch closely to the last 2 episodes, in the last one Murdock is wearing a T-Shirt that says Almost Fini, or something to that effect, but in the second last episode he's wearing a shirt that says FINI. So the last episode is really THE GREY TEAM, not WITHOUT RESERVATIONS. So if you do buy this set, the only thing I can recommend is to watch the last 2 episodes in that order.
br /
br /As for the season, I find it's overpriced for the amount of episodes that you get. I think it should be a lower price considering theres only 13 episodes. Storywise though, they should have ended the series with the 3 part season 5 premiere episode, and left it there, and it would have been a proper way to end the show. But I guess I can't get past the fact that the series didn't get a proper sendoff, or final episode.
br /
br /I did like the fact that they remixed the theme song for this season, and the addition of Frankie was a good idea, cuz it brought some new blood into the series. So to properly review this season of the series, if you're expecting a proper end to the series, go elsewhere, but if you just wanna see some good A-Team episodes, there is a few in here, but Season 3 was really the peak of the series, and was the best season thus far, although Season 4 was pretty good also. I find season 4 was just a tad under what season 3 was quality wise.
br /
br /So for fans of the A-Team (like myself) I recommend the seasons in the following order (Seasons 3,4,2,1,5). Seasons 1 and 5 have the least amount of episodes. Season 1 has 14, and Season 5 has 13.
br /
br /So I give this season 3 stars. The picture quality is pretty good, the sound is I think 2.0 Mono, might be stereo, not sure, but it is really good quality. Only beef I have with this season is some of the content of the episodes and the lack of episodes, with no final episode.
