The Wild Wild West
Created by Michael Garrison
On CBS
A high-spirited adventure series blending spy-fi gadgetry with Western settings, sustained across 104 episodes by episodic reset and the chemistry of its two leads.
During the administration of President Ulysses Grant, Secret Service agents James West and Artemus Gordon solve crimes, protect the President, and foil the plans of megalomaniacal villains to take over all or part of the United States.
