TV & Film:Film History
Private investigators. Police corruption. Principled lawyers. This week, Rolando and Nicole take a look at the grandpapi of all police procedurals on television, "Perry Mason." The show ran for 9 seasons beginning in 1958 and starred Raymond Burr, who was a closeted homosexual. Then they explore the reimagined origins of the noble lawyer in HBO's "Perry Mason."
How does the original series hold up more than 60 years after its premiere? Is the new Perry Mason a fresh take on the character or just another "gritty" remake? And what does our admiration of a character like Perry Mason say about our legal system?
Listen now.
