Title: The Wild Wild West

Released: September 17, 1965
Type: TV
The Wild Wild West is an American television series. Developed at a time when the television western was losing ground to the spy genre, this show was conceived by its creator, Michael Garrison, as "James Bond on horseback."

The show also featured a number of fantasy elements, such as the technologically advanced devices used by the agents and their adversaries.
