Wild Wild West
Uh, Wicky wild wild. Wicky wicky wild, wicky wicky wild wild wild Analog Jones! The two best-hired guns in the West, no not Matt and Steve, Jim West and Artemus Gordon must save President Grant from a crazy legless scientist (Dr. Arliss Loveless) and his giant robotic spider. Yes, that’s the story and it gets weirder. Saddle up and get ready to hear a crazy tail of Wild Wild West from 1999.
