The Wild Wild West is a Western slash espionage slash science fiction slash steam punk television series that's basically what happens when you combine James Bond antics with old time-y costumes. The series stars Robert Conrad as Secret Service agent Jim West, and Ross Martin and his partner-in-fighting-ridiculous-crimes Artemus Gordon. This show schwirsheled around genre with the enthusiasm of a skilled Frisco card sharpie shuffling cards. So today, we're going to talk about two episodes that play with the concepts of crime and mystery. "The Night of the Returning Dead" was the fifth episode of the show's lauded second season, airing for the first time on October 14, 1966. This episode features a special guest star: Renaissance man and Rat Pack member Sammy Davis Jr. "The Night of the Tottering Tontine" is the sixteenth episode of the show's second season, having aired on January 6, 1967. That episode is the show's take on an Agatha Christie mystery, by way of some creative accounting and outrageous architecture.Listen to Áine and Kevin lasso topics like our dog's similarity to a M*A*S*H character, financial planners, and the most and least talented members of the Rat Pack.Follow us on the usual social media suspects:FacebookTwitterInstagramAnd telegraph your messages from President Grant to mysterytomepodcast@gmail.com.Mystery to Me is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Men in Black worked so well, so Warner Brothers was sure they had a hit with Wild Wild West. They were wrong.  U.S. Secret Service agent Artemus Gordon (portrayed by Kevin Kline) is somehow an exact doppelganger for the man he's protecting, U.S. president Ulysses S. Grant (in a weird flex, also played by Kline). The villain of the piece, Dr. Arliss Lovelace, is a biological marvel who, despite not having a lower body, is constantly horny. And much of the humor relies on referring to the rampant racism of the Reconstruction era. The salt in the wound is that the song "Men in Black" is an absolute banger, and "Wild Wild West" just isn't.

Oh Wild Wild West, how did it go so wrong? Will Smith was literally crushing it in the years leading up to the epic Western misfire. He'd embodied the cool renegade cop with Bad Boys; he'd conquered invading lifeforms twice with Independence Day and Men in Black (MIB); and he'd even bested corrupt federal agents in Enemy of the State. Wild Wild West was meant to be yet another high in his meteoric rise—particularly since it reunited him with the director of MIB, Barry Sonnenfeld. Alas, it was not meant to be, and not even a catchy tie-in song could save it. A tonal mess, Wild Wild West earned the scorn of critics (17% on Rotten Tomatoes with 131 reviews) and was utterly dismissed by fans (28%). It grossed just $222.1 million on a production budget of $170 million. If you take into account marketing—and there was plenty—it probably cost upward of $300 million.  Being a financial and critical flop is bad enough, but earning eight Razzie nominations—five wins, including Worst Picture—is just the mushy cherry on top. This movie was indeed the summer of 1999's punching bag. Some would argue rightfully so. The ending, which includes Will Smith belly dancing and a 100-foot tall hydraulic war machine spider, is as bad as any 30 minutes there has ever been in a big budget film. That's not an exaggeration. The climactic portion of Wild Wild West is an undeniable mess; and it unfortunately detracts from what was a semi-enjoyable—albeit derivative—mismatched buddy adventure. Thanks, Jon Peters. To ignore the clear and baffling influence of Hollywood's most infamous hair dresser, one must consume a few cold ones. So sit back, fire open a Sun & Steel from Robinsons Brewery with a six-gun, and hop aboard a steam punk arachnid! I, the Thunderous Wizard (@WriterTLK), Capt. Cash, and Chumpzilla are riding Artemus Gordon's gadget train across the U.S. to track down the disreputable Arliss Loveless! This Week’s Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – A Will Smith movie finishing 17th at the domestic box office in 1999 would've sounded implausible then. This one accomplished that feat. (00:00) The Jim West Tamin' the West Trivia Challenge – I challenge Capt. Cash and Chumpzilla to a series of Wild Wild West-themed questions. (54:54) Recommendations – We offer our picks for the week, and next up: Our 2020, "I can't believe this shit is happening" special, Idiocracy. (1:06:43) And, as always, hit us up on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram to check out all the interesting factoids—the perils of working with Peters and more—from this week’s episode!

This week, we'll be talking Bond and other spies! In the earliest days of the Cold War, unlikely monikered producer Albert R. "Cubby" Broccoli and his partner Harry Saltzman tapped into some very variant elements of the late 50's/early 60's zeitgeist and created the defining example of a martini-sipping, jet setting lounge lizard fantasy of an international spy.  Simultaneously able to work contemporary political tropes of anti-Communism and the hip, swinging macho dream of every potbellied suburban overlord, their version of Ian Fleming's 007 overtook the original and spawned a literal army of filmic and televised knockoffs, from the successful (Jerry Cotton and the Eurospy craze, John Steed, Jason King, Adam Adamant, Alexander Mundy, Simon Templar, James West and Artemus Gordon, the I.M.F.) to the strangely popular and comic oriented but failed (Man From Uncle, Get Smart, I Spy).   Join us as we separate the wheat from the chaff, only here on Weird Scenes Inside the Goldmine!
