I then watched the last episode on disc 2 of THE WILD WILD WEST. More prime beefcake of Robert Conrad, and he took part in some impressive kung fu moves.
There was a special feature on the disc, an audio interview with one of the show's producers who said he came on board THE WILD WILD WEST because he found Robert Horton impossible to deal with on his series A MAN CALLED SHENANDOAH, and that even though friends had warned him Robert Conrad would be equally difficult to work with, he found him just the opposite: the hardest working, most professional, and most prepared actor he'd ever worked with.
