This Week on Raised on Television: Perry Mason Loses?!
This week, we’re throwing it way back again ... this time to 1966, Season 7 of Perry Mason.
The courtroom legend himself finally takes an “L”… sort of. In this rare twist, Perry is actually foiled! Not by the prosecution, not by a surprise witness, but by his own client, who decides to play keep-away with critical evidence. Bad move. Guilty verdict. Cue the dramatic organ sting.
But if you think that’s where the story ends, you clearly don’t know Perry Mason. With the ever-capable Della Street and man-of-action Paul Drake at his side, Perry’s not letting a little thing like a conviction stop him from sniffing out the real culprit. This episode turns into a courtroom whodunnit with classic Mason flair.
For those of us who grew up dreaming of being lawyers, Perry Mason was the gold standard: cool under pressure, always prepared, and able to break down a witness like it was his superpower. Sadly, real-life lawyering rarely involves dramatic confessions on the stand (trust us).
So… does Mason turn the tide? Does his client get a second shot at justice? And more importantly, does this episode earn a spot on TV Guide's list of greats, and if so, is it sitting pretty in the right place? Smash that play button to find out.
And hey—if you’re enjoying the ride, toss us some stars. Five would be ideal, but we’ll take as many as you can legally give. 🎙️⚖️⭐
