What a generous man! I showed Centennial to one of my classes in the early nineties and had my students write letters to Robert describing what they learned from his portrayal of Pasquinel, the fur trapper. Robert actually called me at my school to thank me personally for the This is my tribute to this fine gentleman. Thank you, Robert!
My favorite character played and portrayed by Robert Conrad Falkowski is U.S secret service agent James West. No one in the world had the charismatic charm, bravery, and talent to assume such a role as he did that's for sure.
Still in repeats on tv and I still love this show. I don't think it got the amount of deservance. The Wild Wild West was so well written, so well directed, and Ross Martin and Robert Conrad were excellent in this show.
As a young lad growing up Robert Conrad was and still is one of my most favorite HEROES! "THE WILD WILD WEST" was instrumental for me learning how to defend myself. Now I'm a Martial Arts Instructor (of 48 years) living In Okinawa, Japan. I Thank Robert Conrad and The WWW for helping me start my life long love of Karate. Bowing....
James T. West all the way. I was pretty young during the run of the Wild wild west TV Series, but thanks to reruns I have a great appreciation for the show. The show was more than just a show. Sometimes there was a show within a show with some recurring actors showcasing their talents. Also there was the series A Man Called Sloane that was pretty cool too.
I use to hear my Dad talk about the death of Nick Adams which was ruled sucicide. Robert Conrad defended his very close friend saying no way he would ever hurt himself.
I'll never forget, as a kid coming home from school and having to watch Wild, Wild, West before I'd even consider doing my homework!! I want to thank everyone who posted an entire episode. God bless you all. RIP Mr. Robert Conrad & Mr. Ross Martin. Gone, but not forgotten.
I have to say it’s the Wild Wild West and Black Sheep Squadron and do remember him in other Movies and Shows I lost track of him till the FETV channel started showing reruns of the Wild Wild West again. I even bought the DVD’s of the complete Series and other things he was in and never knew about his Radio Show and sorry I missed it. I had just started doing all this when I heard he passed away and there will never be a another one like Robert Conrad. Let’s hope his Family is aware how popular he was and may he RIP.
One of his most memorable, and favorite, acting rolls for me is as the murderous "Milo Janus" on "Columbo," and of course The Wild Wild West's "James West."
I was just starting high school when "Wild Wild West" was aired. Frankly, I wasn't a fan of westerns, but a friend of mine turned me on to the show, and I was a FAN throughout all the seasons. In a way, I thought it as the "James Bond goes 1870's" type of thing. I remember when the FCC, or whatever entity it was that determine that too much violence is too much, actually banned the fight scenes when he was using his Karate. I enjoyed that style of fighting and I was livid when I found out what they had done. I'll always remember Robert Conrad as James West. I liked him as Pappy Boyington, but I just looked at him as James West flying a plane. LOL.
Wild Wild West was the greatest action TV show of all time Thanks to Bob Conrad as Jim West & Ross Martin as Artemus Gordon, the perfect Secret Service duo!!!!!
Rest in peace to Robert you were one beautiful man👌👌👌👌👌😘❤❤ he was absolutely ridiculously sexy when you think of a clean-cut good looking man you think of this one he will live on in rerun history and I will be watching it the Wild Wild West was a good show👌👊👍❤ God please bless and take care of his family that's left watch over them❤ go on into heaven get you some rest Robert❤ R.I.P
R.I.P. Robert Conrad Grew up watching the Wild Wild West Loved it ! Just got done seeing him on Columbo the day before he passed away I looked up his bio that day thinking wow he's 84 still alive crazy I'm a big fan played a good tough guy
im so sad when i heard of his passing. i sooooooo loved him so much.... grew up with wild wild west. this is so heartbreaking to me... he passed... loved him. rest in peace brother..
I like Robert Conrad in any role that he played. Well well West was a great show and a family type show but my favorite one was Black Sheep Squadron. My father had a book written by Colonel Greg Boyington and autographed by the colonel years ago. I know that Colonel Bolton was a Marine colonel but my father was an Army Air corps officer during World War II and somehow they cross paths years later possibly in the 50s. I don't know where that book is but I remember seeing it and the autograph years ago when I was a kid possibly 10 or 11 years old I'm 66 now my father is passed away years ago but I always like Robert Conrad he was a very likeable fellow and all the roles he played and I hope he is doing well now if he is still with us. Take care of mr. Conrad if you read this. A big fan of yours. Mark Scott
They never gave him the credit he truly deserved throughout his lifetime it’s good to see him albeit postmortem be remembered for his contribution to the world of entertainment! I’ve loved him since I was ten years old and so lucky to get to meet him at least five times and hung around while they were filming high mountain rangers which was filmed in Lake Tahoe not Bear Valley by the way! He was a regular guy, reminded me of the men I grew up w/that tough exterior but softy inside! He is so missed and will never ever be forgotten unless I lose my memory one day! Rest In Peace my hero, love you always, Donna
In France where I come from, you were a TV star for many children who grew up in the 70's. we had never missed an episode of w.w.west, "Les mystères de l'ouest" in French. Artemus Gordon and Dr Loveless were wonderful characters. Thanks for the show.
@Joann Peters, No disrespect to Will Smith but Will Smith can not replace the character Robert Conrad as James West as far as my concern Robert Conrad will always be the man. Ross Martin who was Robert Conrad partner in the Wild Wild West may he Rest In Peace.
My 11 year old idealism was shattered when Gabe Kaplan, AKA Mr Kotter and leader of the Sweathogs beat James Conrad, all time badass, in the 100 sprint on Battle of the Networks back in 1976. Conrad famously & embarrassingly objected, so they held a rematch where frickn Mr Kotter dropped Conrad like a rock! Also, I think that was the same year that I learned that girls actually poop, too. While all the hoopla surrounding the “Spirit of 76” Bicentennial stuff was going on, I was distraught over losing my innocence...😉
Just like in movies life is like curtain it opens and after awhile the curtain closes, the audience will judge the kind of acting you performed and then applaud. As for Robert Conrad..it was a Standing Ovation.
The Wild Wild West in Baa Baa Black Sheep for my two favorite but I liked everything that Bob did May you rest in peace Bob God bless you thank you for all the entertainment over the years !!!
Wow. - I was so sad to hear that he passed away yesterday. I’ve seen him in at least two or three other TV series that he starred in that was not mentioned on here. It is really awful to know that he was responsible for a young man passing away; that’s terrible. ☹️
For me it would be hard to say. I suppose if I was to choose one Wild Wild West, James West was his best role ever. Although I think in a very close second would be Black Sheep Squadron.
wild wild west. and bah bah black sheep. but also loved hime as the football coach confided to the wheelchair. loved that made for tv movie. drawing a blank on the title now..LOL. i sooooo loved him. so sad hes gone...
I wish they’d put his appearances on here when he’d be on the Mike Douglas show so many times but one when he sang, I’ll go my way by myself that I recorded on a cassette before I had a VCR, and it recently broke!!!! 😭😱😡 I wish they would put those old shows on now while we’re in the middle of this virus and they won’t be able to film shows anymore so why not dig up those old shows like Mike and Merv!!?? What are they just going to let them rot away?? That would be terrible! Why hasn’t someone thought of putting them on somewhere!? T.V. Or here? They made all these new channels that were supposed to show old shows then they went and made a NEW show instead!!?? Can’t they make anything stick to what they were supposed to?? It’s so sad thinking they’ll just go to waste 😓💔
I always liked the guy and later he had a fun sense of humor about himself. Did you know that when he signed the contract to do Wild Wild West, the studio had to build him a boxing ring on the sound stage right off the set?
I would have to say Wild,Wild West was my favorite; although, Black Sheep Squadron would have topped it if there had been more actual in-flight segments featuring those awesome F4 Corsair fighter planes.
No body can fight like James West He is the Best action actor in tv those days No series' can come closed to The Wild Wild West And Robert Conrad got The King of action for tv series
Their is something about being the first in what ones does especially if they do it well and whenever it comes to portraying James West in The Wild Wild West Robert Conrad will be remembered as the star actor no different then William Shatner, Clint Eastwood, Lynda Carter etc.
Postscript- Since this was released, on February 2nd, 2020, Robert Conrad became "A Victim Of Goodbye", which is my way of saying he passed away. You also forgot to mention that he was in the final Quinn Martin Production, A Man Called Sloane. Please update this profile. Thank you. DANGER WOMAN
It’s a toss up between Wild Wild West and Baa Baa Black Sheep. If I had to choose only one it probably would have been Black Sheep. My father and I both enjoyed that show and we were both United States Marines just like Conrad’s character. Simper Fi
I feel like Robert Conrad Michael Landon and Mel Gibson were all cut from the same cloth. Its as if God created these guys to entertain us with style and class. They were on the big screen, what most men wish they could be in real life, just cool!!!
Was it Craig Hill's ("Whirlybirds") amazing resemblance to the recently late Robert Conrad the reason for Hill's seeming inability to catch on fire with an American public and caused him to seek work abroad? Realistically, the two could've been mistaken for brothers. Anyone?
The Powers that Be took off his radio show The REAL Robert Conrad. I never had a chance to speak to him - very busy phone line there but now it's gone. I wish those Powers to go to H!
What a generous man!

This is amazing 👌
Without a doubt, James West from The Wild, Wild, West.
In France where I come from, you were a TV star for many children who grew up in the 70's.
we had never missed an episode of w.w.west, "Les mystères de l'ouest" in French.
Artemus Gordon and Dr Loveless were wonderful characters.
Thanks for the show.
I totally loved Robert Conrad in Wild Wild West...he was the epitome of the perfect man!!!!!!
@Joann Peters, No disrespect to Will Smith but Will Smith can not replace the character Robert Conrad as James West as far as my concern Robert Conrad will always be the man. Ross Martin who was Robert Conrad partner in the Wild Wild West may he Rest In Peace.
@@robertortiz8540 I thought the same. He was to the role what Sean Connery was to "James Bond." So no worries, Ortiz.

Fair Well Pappy
ROBERT CONRAD (1935 - 2020)
'Couch' of the Year??? Come on man.
Just shows you that the people behind making this, don't know jackshit about the man.
One of America’s first “bad ass” actors.
It’s a toss up between Wild Wild West and Baa Baa Black Sheep.
If I had to choose only one it probably would have been Black Sheep. My father and I both enjoyed that show and we were both United States Marines just like Conrad’s character.
Simper Fi
He was a real boxer before wild wild west his record was 4-0 then he went to wild wild west and baa baa black sheep has Major Pappy Boyington
My favorite part and show he played was black sheep squadron as pappy
My favorite is James West
Definitely wild wild west as James West
James T West.
I feel like Robert Conrad Michael Landon and Mel Gibson were all cut from the same cloth. Its as if God created these guys to entertain us with style and class. They were on the big screen, what most men wish they could be in real life, just cool!!!
Robert Conrad was cut from a far superior material
RIP
Wild Wild West & Black Sheep Squadron
R. I. P. Bob! You was my true hero! By the way, you forgot the series a man called sloane 1981!!
