remember these shows?

In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court, for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

And don't forget Mr. T in Rocky III

Do you hate Rocky?

Clubber Lang: No,
I don't hate Balboa. I pity the fool.

Did you ever see that american series Edward Woodward did called The Equalizer.... bit naf IMHO

Yes but could not remember the name. One of the few American shows that realy got down into the seamy side of US life. Don't think it lasted too long. Pity as there were realy good stories.

There was another one but for the love of me I can not remember the name of it. It was about a forensic team that dealt with sex crimes etc. The main charecter was a blond male. The person who played the a part was famouse in a cop series. It might have been CHIPS.

There was another good'un about a sherife chasing a werewolf. Think the production was Steven Canning.

Anyone know of these??
