Stephen J Cannell Died Late Last Night

Stephen J Cannell died last night from complications from melanoma. He created "The A-Team", "The Greatest American Hero", and "21 Jump Street", and wrote for many shows like "Rockford Files" and "Adam-12", for us old folks out there. And just a trivia point - the end credit, where he yanks a piece of paper out of a typewriter that forms the "C" logo? That typewriter, an IBM Selectric, was the only thing he used for final scripts - he never went over to a word processor or a PC. What a loss!

I loved the A-team growing up. I still know the theme tune.

In honor of him and Star Wars (I know Iknow I am a goofball) Here is a rare but cool pic of B A Baracus

and my favorite, the Metal version of the theme

Love the BA picture. I'm sitting here trying to picture that scene from "Empire".....

"I'm your father, sucker!"

So, I'm guessing Face is Luke, Hannibal is Han Solo, and Murdoch is Princess Leia? (Remember the episode where Murdoch stands in for a bride they're rescuing, full dress plus veil over his trademark sneakers?)

I better stop. I'm scaring myself!

Try picturing it with the metal version of the Imperial march

I know I am going to piss Jen with this one, but the A-Team sent B A Baracus to take over World of Warcraft

You know, I was never really tempted into any MMORPGs until I saw the BA commercial. I still don't have any interest in the game, but

I WANT A MOHAWK GRENADE!!!!!

(Note, it wouldn't do me a bit of good. I keep my head shaved, and with my hairline, it takes 1/2 the time to shave my head as it does to shave my chin!)

OMG too funny

OMG too funny

Caribeandragon- Are ya laughin' at the grenade, or the fact that I got more chin hair than head hair?

Ya know what they call 7 rabbits in a row walkin' backwards?

A RECEEDING HARE-LINE! <rimshot>

Hey, I had a widow's peak (picture Eddie Munster) at 14. I was turning grey at 23. I wish the rest of it would fall out and have done! I can always comb my dog for hair to make a Mohawk!
