Perry Mason: Complete Series Pack

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

Based on characters created by Erle Stanley Gardner, this long-running legal drama series was guilty of just one thing: being great TV. For nine seasons from 1957-1966, Perry (Raymond Burr) defended seemingly indefensible cases with help from his beautiful secretary Della Street (Barbara Hale) and suave private investigator Paul Drake (William Hopper). The series won three Emmys and became the template for every US courtroom drama that followed. Collection includes all 271 episodes. 233 hrs, 72 DVDs,

These appear to be the full unedited episodes, as originally aired on CBS, unlike the reruns you’ll see today on television, which have all been edited to allow for additional commercial minutes. (The National Association of Broadcasting Advertising Code isn’t what it used to be.) The video quality is excellent. If you’re a true connoisseur, I recommend you purchase the amazingly thorough book that will tell you everything you could possibly want to know about EVERY episode–right down to the make, model, and license number of every car used, ALL the actors, the OTHER movies, radio, etc., the actors have starred in, original interviews with those involved in the show, and on and on. The book also reviews every Mason magazine serial, the early movies, the radio show–it’s all here, in “The Perry Mason Book: A Comprehensive Guide to America’s Favorite Defender of Justice,” available in Kindle edition (only) for less than five dollars.
