I caught an A-Team rerun with a very familiar storyline -- eight years before Pulp Fiction came out. There's even a Die Hard alum in the key role, though this is before the Nakatomi tragedy.

Here it is -- Paul Gleason plays an old boxer who was told to take a dive by a bald, black gangster. Instead, he decides to fight for real and ends up killing his opponent. Then he goes on the run, only to be found decades later (there was no Zed/Maynard episode for him to patch things up with the gangster).

And much like Jack Rabbit Slim's is a "wax museum with a pulse," this episode is a 1980s time capsule with appearances by Hulk Hogan and NFL oddity William "Refrigerator" Perry.

Anyway, the plot caught my attention.
