Watched an old episode of the A-Team yesterday and as usual the bullets were flying and making sparks fly off the rear of a 74 vette body Damn, I didn't know fibreglass was bullet proof

My wife watches that show when it is on, and I never saw that one! Too funny.
Back in the day, when that show was "new" people were complaining about violence on TV and they pointed out that show. I thought that it was a really dangerous show for young kids to watch, but not for the same reasons. I thought it was dangerous because they would go around guns blazin' shooting up the place and nobody ever got hurt. They would just flip the jeep and then they would even make sure to show them climbing out of the jeep. I would much rather have kids see the reality of guns and what they really do.
Sorry I wondered off topic but that always bothered me. BTW, I am not against guns at all.... don't get me wrong. I just didn't like how fun they made a gunfight look.
Back to your regularly scheduled programming .....

What was really great about it was that the US Army was chasing after these guys, but couldnt find them until the end of the episode....however some poor dirt farmer in the middle of no-where had no problem finding them, to hire them for the purpose of removing a menacing group of people.

Every episode was basically the same

It took me about five episodes to detect a pattern...
