You've been charged with one of the most horrific crimes ever--murder--and all of the evidence points in your direction. With nothing else to do, you've given up all hope and expect to be convicted and spending the rest of your life in prison, or worse, right? Not if you have Perry Mason as your attorney!
And now the first half (19 episodes) of the first season of the classic courtroom drama, where the seemingly guilty are actually innocent, is available on DVD from CBS DVD! Perry Mason: Season 1/Volume 1 includes the first 19 episodes of the classic series where Perry Mason (Raymond Burr), aided by his own secretary Della Street (Barbara Hale) and private eye Paul Drake (William Hopper), defends the citizens that are very clearly guilty of murder, even though they didn't do it. And he always (well, almost always, there is an exception to this rule) helps the defendant get off the hook for the crime that they didn't commit, often by causing a third party to incriminate themselves. All of that is frustrating for the district attorney, Hamilton Burger (William Talman), who always seems to think he can beat Perry Mason in court--and always comes out a loser.
