      christian h The show is excellent, and his return to tv was excellent. Raymond Burr won a well deserved two Emmy's for his role as Perry Mason, and Barbra Hale won one as well as his loyal secretary Della Street. And they're both back in a wonderful series of tv movies. Long live Perry Mason! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member You can't go wrong with a Perry Mason mystery to kill a few hours.
