Cosmetic perfectly placed theatrical bandages covering wildly coloured stage make-up bruising was about as serious as it got.

LOL, but that was part of the cheesy enjoyment of the A-Team. They always made sure to show the bad guys walking away when a car was blown up or overturned, or when an explosive went off next to them. Thats what made the A-Team the classic TV it was. It almost became like a running joke throughout the series, how many gun fights/explosions/car crashes could the A-Team get through without actually ever killing anyone.
Classic stuff Twas a simpler time

Yeah, helicopters used to crash into cliff-faces and the people would still walk away.
Another thing that would always happen is they would be captured about half-way through the episode and be locked in a garage... with enough hardware and tools to build an amoured vehicle contraption thing to blast their way out!
It was one of my favourite shows when I was young but I'm afraid to watch it now in case I find out it was no good.
