DVD Reviews of The Wild Wild West - The Complete Second Season
DVD Review: one of the best ever
Summary: 5 Stars
this series is in a class by itself. the cast, the creativity, and the humour is always ingeniousDVD Review: Nonplussed
Summary: 1 Stars
I am probably going to be the only person that has purchased one of these Wild Wild West Series to say what a load of RUBBISH it is. Out of all the DVD series sets I have ever bought - and I have quite a few, this is the WORST. First, the tranfer of the colours is overdone, albeit decent quality. Second apart from a very few small scenes outdoors, the majority of the scenes are indoors on set - and it shows. Everything seems to have been done cheaply. An absolute waste of the actors talents, which is a pity, because there are some decent actors in the series. I will not be purchasing more.DVD Review: Sensational Collection of Original WWW

Summary: 5 Stars
I FOUND THE TWO SEASONS OF THE WILD WILD WEST TO BE VERY ENJOYABLE AND HIGHLY ENTERTAINING. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO EVERYONE ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO ENJOY ROBERT CONRAD.

DVD Review: Even more fun and wacky wild stuff
Summary: 5 Stars
It took me a while to get used to this being in color, as I had gotten used to the stark but lovely b/w of the first season. But I quickly got caught up in the stories and devilish villains, beautiful ladies and odd settings, as Jim and Artie continue their various missions all over the country with their tricked-out train, hidden devices, and general humor.
Looking forward to the 3rd and 4th seasons.
Description of The Wild Wild West - The Complete Second Season
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, the Artemus designs a series of interesting gadgets for James that would make Inspector Gadget proud. A light hearted adventure series.Whether you grew up with it on the tube, want to erase the memory of 1999's disappointing feature-film adaptation, or are simply discovering it now, The Wild Wild West rocks. This late-'60s TV show has a bit of everything: laughs, drama, action, elements of magic, sci-fi, ghost stories, high- and low-tech gadgets that would do James Bond and MacGyver proud, great music, pretty ladies, outrageous villains, cool clothes... and even Sammy Davis Jr. and Richard Pryor, among other unexpected guests. Droll ladies man and government agent James West (played by tough guy Robert Conrad, wearing pants so tight they reveal his... well, they're really tight) and his sidekick, master of disguises Artemus Gordon (Ross Martin), are back at it for this second season (1966-67), with 28 episodes packaged on seven discs, bringing with them the same delightfully arch tone as before. Headquartered in their well-appointed train car, they embark on a variety of oddball adventures, all of them entitled "The Night of" something (like "...the Flying Pie Plate," "...the Returning Dead," "...the Surreal McCoy," "...the Tottering Tontine," and many more). It's all very tongue-in-cheek; the villains, both familiar (Doctor Miguelito Loveless, colorfully portrayed by "little person" Michael Dunn) and new, are deluded, silver-tongued maniacs camping it up like there's no tomorrow, while the stories, ranging from Loveless' schemes to take over the world and various plots to eliminate President Ulysses S. Grant and other important personages to time travel and green-skinned women from Venus, are smart, whimsical, and clever.
The show's overall vibe, from the opening credits on, is obviously reminiscent of cartoons and comic books; the fact that it doesn't take itself at all seriously is arguably its most appealing feature, along with better-than-average sets, cinematography, and other technical elements (not to mention a great title tune by Morton Stevens, the same guy responsible for Hawaii Five-0's immortal theme). Inevitably, some of it seems a bit dated now, such as the stereotypical depictions of Indians, but overall, The Wild Wild West has held up well. If there's a principal drawback, it's the lack of any bonus features; even though creator Michael Garrison died before this second season hit the airwaves, it would have been nice to hear from some of the others who participated in the making of this terrific show. --Sam Graham
