Though I know better than to expect remakes to be faithful to their originals, Perry Mason's genius was in a courtroom. Mason stories were about gathering evidence and presenting it in court. Whatever had to be done outside the office, aside from witness interviews, would be done by Paul Drake. In the 1950s/60s series Drake was all attitude and rare action. In the later Perry Mason TV movies, William Katt's Drake got into car chases and fistfights and that looks more like concessions to network suits as to what should be in a crime drama. I hope this version of Mason works for what it is but it isn't what Perry Mason is supposed to be. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
