WWW told the story of the country's first two Secret Service agents, James West, the charming gunslinger, and Artemus Gordon, the brilliant gadgeteer, in their unending mission to protect president Ulysses Grant and the United States from all manner of dangerous threats. The show incorporated classic Western elements with an espionage thriller, as well as science fiction/alternate history ideas and plenty of comedy. Essentially a team of James Bonds in the 1870s.
