Episode 09 - Season One: Holiday in the Hills (1983)
Just when the gang thinks it is safe to celebrate their recent successful mission down in Guatemala, Murdock choice of airplane takes a nasty dive into some god forbidden backwoods where they soon encounters a large bunch of trigger happy hillbillies.
Another episode which is close of somewhere between mediocre and good but somehow it ends up becoming rather okay as entertainment but not a very memorable or classic view. While there is surprisingly little action to be seen, that doesn't always mean it's a bad thing, as here the gang must try and rely on more than just weapons and fighting skills, but stand together as a unit and that is of course always easier said than done, specially when the big bad Mudsucka! awakes from his "sleep" and he is not too thrilled when realizing he has once again been fooled into taking one of his far too many flight schedules. An even worse, this time it is one which was flown by Murdock and it ended up with a crash landing.
Of course, while the the rest of the A-Team must take on a small army of hairy, fat and angry local jokels, Faceman disguised as a priest find the only female to be seen around, and she is cute as a button and the two seems to get on very well. Murdock and B.A. seems to be putting their differences aside and works well together when building a very cool flying machine, which is to bring a wounded innocent bystander along with Murdock to safety, and I loved the little wink Howlin' gives his big fella, who smiles back shortly before taking off.
Yep, he is crazy as they come, but as Hannibal puts it so nicely, he is the right kind of crazy.
All in all, not a great or very memorable one, but it is to be yet another entertaining and fun episode.
6/10
