Customer Reviews of The Wild Wild West, Vol. 2
When the "West" Was Fun Last year's big-screen version of "The Wild Wild West" was a misguided (and miscast) revival of a classic TV series. The early "WWW" episodes only enhance the film's weaknesses. "The Night the Wizard Shook the Earth" marks the debut of Michael Dunn's inimitable Dr. Loveless -- the most enduring adversary of James West (Robert Conrad). All the action-espionage elements are evident in this 1965 episode, along with the sardonic, childlike charm of Dunn's characterization. One only wishes that Artemus Gordon had an opportunity to display a few of his famous disguises (Ross Martin's talents are wasted in this particular episode). Nevertheless, "Wizard" remains a fine example of what "The Wild Wild West" was all about.
The First Night of Dr. Loveless
This is the first episode with "strange little sensitive man" Dr. Miguelito Loveless, produced by Fred Freiberger. It is a very important episode because you learn a lot of Dr. Loveless' aristocratic background and motivations and you'll see his colourful assistants : "Moonraker" Richard Kiel as mute giant Voltaire and Phoebe Dorin as female singer and harpsichord player Antoinette. This is James West at his best with the gagdets (watch closely the weapon filled carriage), the beautiful women (Leslie Parrish and many others) and the action. There is an excellent score composed and conducted by Robert Drasnin; listen carefully Dr. Loveless' theme music. Like in James Bond's films, you have a Miss Moneypenny type of character whose name is Miss Piecemeal. She is Governor of California's secretary and a natural-born traitress. She will reappear in "The Night of the Torture Chamber". My advice is not to miss this great episode. This is a real reference in terms of stylish entertainment.
