Wild, Wild West is one of those shows where so many things worked out well. The music and the opening credits (which come a couple of minutes in) are great. Conrad and Martin made a great team, it's a real chemistry. You feel that they really are good friends rather than just acting. They had humor and the episodes had plenty of action. Michael Dunn was fantastic. To have a villain who didn't even try to compete with Jim West physically was a brilliant idea. Dr Loveless was one of the great TV characters of all time. I really enjoyed the fact that they had him be cultured and was very polished a nice contrast to West's shoot-now-ask-questions-later attitude. I loved the show. Maybe one of the reasons I remember it so well is that it was taken off so early (due to an anti-violence swing at the network rather than ratings) so there is no long decline. You can see any episode and be entertained rather than having to check which season it was one in order to determine if it's worth your time or not.
