Watched an episode of Airwolf tonight with Lance LeGault as a bad guy. Really bad. (Got blown up in the end. Unlike A-Team, Airwolf doesn't mind killing people. {I don't think it's really a spoiler to tell you the bad guy is beaten in the end, for these types of shows.)
Does Lance LeGault ever play a good guy? I mean, he's good at being a bad guy, but I'd like to see him as a good guy.

I liked his turn in the original GAMBLER movie. He was a very minor part, but wasn't a bad guy.

I see he's been in more than one episode of Airwolf-- I'll have to watch for him again. And he's been in a lot of things, including episodes of MacGyver and Knight Rider. Surely can't be bad in all of them...

Airwolf now also has a girl sidekick. She's a pilot, too-- both helicopter and fixed-wing. She did a good bit of flying in the episode I just watched. Love it.

At the beginning of DOUBLE HEAT as he enters the gym, Face passes on his right a blonde haired woman who is lifting weights. Its the same actress who in BEVERLEY HILLS is dressed elegantly and looks down her nose at BA as he and the team walk down the posh road to the gallery.

I didn't realize that's the same woman! Wonder who she is....

It hit me today, what might be a good job for Murdock, post-VA: he could fly medevac flights. (Can you get that as a job if you're formerly insane? I wonder if that gives you as much of a stigma as being an ex-convict...) OTOH, can you imagine being in a horrible accident or something, you're being airlifted... and you hear your pilot go, "WOOHOO!!" LOL
But as soon as I thought that, I thought, "but, what if he's then not available because he's on some job with the team?" (I'm not sure how being a medevac pilot works. Are you just sitting around for a shift, waiting to be called that someone needs to be flown? Or are there maybe set flights, like especially if you're flying organs or something?)
And *then* I thought of somewhere that I think we were talking about how Murdock is a job hopper. At first I thought, "Maybe he takes menial jobs because he needs something that doesn't require him to be too reliable, for the team jobs." But, even working at a restaurant or something will need you available on some sort of schedule, unless they're willing to be very flexible and you have coworkers who are fine with picking up your shift on short-ish notice. So then I thought, "Maybe he has a different job every episode because he'll take a job, and then when there's a team job, he just quits. And gets a new job when they're done." Hm. (Before I think I had thought maybe he had to hop jobs because he had a hard time holding one because of the team jobs, but it didn't occur to me then that it's possible he just straight-up quits each time. Of course, you probably couldn't do that for very long before businesses stop wanting to hire you... unless you just lie about your background and they don't check, which I guess might be possible for service jobs, especially back then.)

He really only has jobs in season 5, and I think he just hops from job to job because he is intensely into the job for the short-term and then gets bored with it. I think he really needs to become a pilot again in order to have, for him, a fulfilling job, but I don't know that he could ever get a job as a pilot after living in a psychiatric ward for all those years.

Finally had an A-Team related dream the other night. There wasn't much to it, and I think I've forgotten part of it. The part I remember, I was out with the team (must've been an Amy-like person), and a bad guy caught us. Swept us all with pistol fire (maybe an extended mag) and we all got shot... for me it was just my arm and maybe a graze on my side, but the other guys may've gotten worse. After that they all ran (I was impressed at running after getting shot) and I followed them; they went around the corner of a building or something, but there was some kind of deck or platform and I sprawled in front of it instead. A moment later I regretted it because here came the bad guy and I was right in front of him, completely exposed and a sitting duck with no chance to get away; I realized I also should've gone around the corner of the building, but I think I was afraid I wouldn't make it, being the last one and out in the open and easy to see (hence why I got down). I don't remember what happened then. I'm actually a bit surprised this is the first time I've ever had an A-Team dream...

That's a lot of detail to remember for a dream, too. Last night I dreamed my husband and I were in some foreign country and we got separate rooms at a place to stay for some reason. But I could not remember where my room was. At some point, although I think I was in the right room, someone else's computer was there and I handled it, maybe even opened it up (a laptop) and then I was concerned because now my fingerprints were on this other person's computer.

Not that much to remember, really... in the dream the whole thing took up probably less than five minutes. I don't usually remember my dreams in a lot of detail-- the more tired I am, the less likely I am to remember I dreamed at all-- but sometimes I can remember a fair amount of dreams.
Anyone else ever had a dream related to the show?

Oh, I dream about them all the time. It's because I'm thinking about them all the time because of my writing, and I've been writing forever. I've said it a million times... That I started writing an origin story, like, twenty years ago, and it turned into this incredible alternate universe epic of over thirty books. It's my me time. I'm always trying to improve it and try new things with it, but at this point, it's really not about the team anymore.

I feel like I've had one A-TEAM related dream in my life, but I can't even remember it, so maybe I didn't even have the one. I don't probably think about them as much as Sidney, though. These days, my main connection with them is through this forum. I still try to watch about an episode a month, and I still love the show, though, when I do watch it!

Like, I've even fallen asleep making up story ideas... still nothing. But, my dream world tends to be very odd and makes little sense.
