THE A-TEAM also took a hit during 1985-86, as ABC's WHO'S THE BOSS? and GROWING PAINS moved ahead of it the hour earlier. THE A-TEAM only outlasted RIPTIDE by half a season, as it was moved to that same Friday night slot for Fall 1986 and NBC began tinkering with it by adding Robert Vaughn to the cast. <br /><br />Halhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09291930694234773688noreply@blogger.com
