- James West and Artemus Gordon are two agents of President Grant who take their splendidly appointed private train through the west to fight evil. Half science fiction and half western, Artemus designs a series of interesting gadgets for James that would make Inspector Gadget proud. A lighthearted adventure series.
- Two Secret Service Agents, equipped with a wide array of gizmos, work for the government in the Old West.
- It is 1965, and James Bond mania is sweeping the world. 'Goldfinger' had been released the previous year, and 'Thunderball' was waiting in the wings for take-off. Wisecracking spies armed with dandy gadgets became the new heroes of the day. Television got in on the act too. In the wake of 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.', there was 'Mission: Impossible', 'Honey West', 'Amos Burke Secret Agent', 'I Spy', the sitcom 'Get Smart' and, of course, this. Created by Michael Garrison, 'The Wild Wild West' focused on two U.S. government agents - James West ( Robert Conrad ) and Artemus Gordon ( Ross Martin ) who operated in the Wild West of the 1880's. Answerable only to President Ulysses S.Grant, they regularly saved America from all manner of evil doers, among them the diminutive genius Dr.Migelito Loveless ( Michael Dunn ). West and Gordon were like Solo and Kuryakin in that the former was a man of action while the latter a master of disguise. They travelled everywhere in a special train - 'The Wanderer' - fitted out with gadgets.<br/><br/>The show cleverly combined Bond-style espionage with the more traditional Western. Some of the plot lines were outlandish enough to give 'The Avengers' and 'Batman' a run for their money - in 'The Night Of The Raven', Dr.Loveless plans to shrink the Human Race so that he can become its ruler, 'The Night Of The Flying Pie Plate' has three beautiful women posing as green skinned Venusians, and 'The Night Of The Burning Diamond' had a villain melting down diamonds to create an elixir to make him invisible! Time travel figured in 'The Night Of The Lord Of Limbo' while in 'The Night Of The Surreal McCoy' Dr.Loveless finds a way to plant murderers inside forged paintings, and then release them to kill world leaders! <br/><br/>'West' was marvellous, campy fun. Conrad did most of his own stunts, and even by today's standards the fights are convincing and exciting. He clicked with co-star Martin, the plots and gadgets were outrageous, beautiful girls of the calibre of Jean Hale and Antoinette Bower abounded, and it had one of the best theme tunes ever. The impressive list of guest stars included Boris Karloff, Richard Pryor, and 'Rat Packers' Peter Lawford and Sammy Davis Junior!<br/><br/>Four seasons were made. An attempt was made in its third year to move it towards a more traditional Western format yet it never sank quite as low as 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.' did in its third season. There were a few problems though - Conrad was injured so badly in one episode the season had to be curtailed, and when Martin had a heart attack a different actor took his place ( as another character ) until he recovered.<br/><br/>In 1979, West and Gordon were reunited for 'The Wild Wild West Revisited' and then 'More Wild Wild West' ( both directed by Burt Kennedy ), but these failed to capture the flavour of the original, coming across more as half-baked spoofs. Then in 1999, Barry Sonnenfeld's movie version starred Will Smith and Kevin Kline, with Kenneth Branagh as 'Loveless'. Smith and Branagh were badly miscast, and, despite having many good points ( such as Salma Hayek's backside and that giant mechanical spider ), it bombed.<br/><br/>The now-defunct 'Bravo' channel on Sky Television repeated the last three seasons in the mid-'90's ( shame on them for missing out the first ) and the entire series is available on D.V.D. in the States.<br/><br/>Even if you do not like Westerns, 'West' is well worth seeking out.
- To my certain knowledge The Wild Wild West has never aired here in the UK. I recently purchased the first season on DVD & was so delighted by it I quickly followed up buying seasons 2,3 & 4. I was not disappointed, in fact quite the opposite. The stories are very imaginative, full of gimmicks & gadgets, usually kind of quirky & very entertaining. Despite the title, many of the episode are not really that of a western TV series & it is difficult to pigeonhole. One reviewer called it, "Have Gun Will Travel meets The Avengers". Robert Conrad is fantastic in the lead role of Jim West & his sidekick Artemus Gordon played by Ross Martin is also excellent. It has the additional bonus of guest appearing in many episodes some of the hottest babes in Hollywood at that time. An Internet website entitled "The Women Of The Wild Wild West TV Show" by Eye Of Polyphemus has listed his top 10 beauties who have guest-starred on TWWW. There are so many drop-dead gorgeous women guest-appearing in it he could easily have listed his top 100!. I wouldn't want to give any impression that the glamorous women make the show, however. They do not, but for us males the eye-candy makes a good thing even better!. Some of the villains like Michael Dunn (a dwarf playing Dr. Miguelito Loveless in 10 episodes) & Victor Buono (a superlative character actor playing Count Carlos Manzeppi), make it riveting viewing. Sadly, i have just read that its creator Michael Garrison fell down a flight of stairs at his home during the making of the second season in 1966, fractured his skull & died. Anyway i have no hesitation in saying that it is one of the best TV shows ever made & why it has never aired in the UK is utterly beyond me. I cannot praise it too highly & would recommend it to anyone. (Update. The first season is now showing on the UK Horror Cable Channel).
