THE WILD, WILD WEST SEASON 1(1965)

One of my favorite TV series ever starring Robert Conrad
as James West and Ross Martin as Artemus Gordon, secret
service men in the 1880s!

Unfortunately the movies are not up to the series, too
much humor, and not the best either!!

What they do have going for them are some great help in
the form of guest stars!

THE WILD WILD WEST REVISITED(1979):

Ok, so don't expect another episode of the great series! This
movie(and the following "More WWW") leave a lot to be desired!
Paul Williams tries to mimick Michael Dunn's character, but falls
terribly short(LOL)! Shields and Yarnell do their part pretty
good! It was great that they brought back Skip Homier! And
Harry Morgan and Rene Auberjonois were good, as was Wilford
Brimely(too under used!!)!

And sadly, this was just a re-make of the season 2, episode
21 "The Night Of The Brain"!!!!

I think if they'd taken out some of the humor and added
a bit more seriousness, this could have been great, because,
well, Robert Conrad and Ross Martin!!!! B-

Reviewer From IMDb.com For Revisited:

James West (Robert Conrad) and Artemus Gordon (Ross Martin) are
brought out of retirement in this engaging, if very campy, TV
reunion movie from 1979. West and Gordon battle Miguelito Loveless,
Jr. (Paul Williams), who has imprisoned several European heads of
state in a dungeon and replaced them with doubles. Loveless also
has a nuclear bomb with which he's menacing the world. In an ending
reminiscent of the old series, West and Gordon manage to foil
Loveless and escape in a most improbable manner.

Fans of the original series will notice a few differences. First,
West uses very few of his famous Secret Service gimmicks such as
the pistol up his sleeve and the explosives hidden in his boot heel.
Second, the dialog and acting are comedic and very broad, almost
to the point of ridiculing the characters. Some of the situations
presented are pretty ridiculous.

Familiar faces such as Skip Homeier and Harry Morgan appear as Secret
Service agents, and the familiar train is of course present. The beautiful
Old Tucson filming locations are a big plus as well. Conrad and Martin
are good, but the film suffers from its campy approach. It's still
enjoyable to see the old duo back in action after 10 years, so if you
liked the original series, you'll like this TV movie. - mrb1980

Ok, the first movie was almost palatable, but this is
pretty bad! The only reason to watch this is for Robert
and Ross! They do pretty good with the crap that's been
given them!

As for the supporting cast members, Victor Buono is really
showing his age, and Joanthan Winters is just ok. Rene
Auberjonois does ok too, but I think he'd rather forget
this role! Thrown in for kicks are Jack LaLanne, Joyce
Brothers and Avery Schreiber!

This is for die hard WWW fans only!! C+

Reviewer From IMDb.com For More:

"More Wild Wild West" had the two original stars, some
really good guest stars, the director of the first TV
movie, a promising plot line...but someone let this one
get away from them.

In this final film Jim (Robert Conrad) and Artie (Ross
Martin) again reprise their roles as 19th-century Secret
Service agents. Albert Paradine II (Jonathan Winters)
wants (as usual) to take over the world, so he does battle
with West and Gordon. Several familiar faces appear,
including Harry Morgan as the Secret Service chief, plus
Avery Schreiber and Victor Buono. The film meanders to
an inconclusive and unsatisfying ending with Paradine
finally being brought to justice (sort of).

Like "The Wild Wild West Revisited", the film is played
mostly for camp, with lots of silly situations and dialog.
Conrad looks as though he's tired of playing his role,
although Martin is good as always. When compared to "The
Wild Wild West Revisited" on the CBS DVD, this film seems
of much lower visual quality, with the colors muddy and
the film scratched in places.

The movie is still fairly entertaining for fans, but the
death of Ross Martin the following year ended any hopes of
another reunion. That's unfortunate since this final "Wild
Wild West" production is pretty forgettable. - mrb1980
