Perry Mason: Seasons 1 - 3

Very enjoyable.

I LOVED THESE EPISODES. I GREW UP WITH PERRY MASON, MAVERIC AND THOSE ACTORS. THIS ONE I WATCH EPISODES OVER AND OVER. LOVE THE CARS OF THE 50'S AND WOMEN TOOK PRIDE IN HOW THEY LOOKED. THEY KEPT THEIR HOUSES CLEAN BUT THEN MEN WERE THE BREAD EARNERS ALSO AND THAT MADE A DIFFERENCE. NOW WE LIFE IN A SOCIETY TOTALLY DIFFERENT. WOMEN RAISE KIDS SINGLEHANDLED AND KIDS BELONG TO GANS, HAVE KNIVES, AND GUNS. WE ALL LIVE IN FEAR OF GETTING HIT BY ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE OR ROAD RAGE...ETC. ETC.JERRI

I bought this as a birthday gift for one who really enjoys Perry Mason. The recipient was very pleased with the quality of the product.

I like Perry Mason

always leaves you in suspense, great series

Perry Mason is a favorite of mine. The first three seasons are perhaps the best. As time went on and the written stories were exhausted, they had to cut and paste familiar themes. Sometimes it worked and sometimes it did not. Sometimes the translation from story to tv was similar but not always. There are some cases where it was totally rewritten for television with little resemblance to the written form. The books are worth reading and offer a much deeper understanding of how Mason fought hard to win his cases. There was a lot of detective work and some legal action as well, Until the tv show, the resolution was not in court but outside it (in depositions, a inquest etc). Also Tragg is much younger in the books as well. Now for the downside of the DVD: There was no closed captioning included on it! I took off a star for this. How can you tell? Because on every other DVD I have I get CC with no problem,. Not with these discs which indicates that CC was not encoded onto the discs (despite it saying so on the box cover).

Best times watching these.

I've watched one or two of the discs so far. They play well. I'm Perry Mason fan and the whole set of the episodes are pricey. This pack was a less expensive alternative.

Es un clásico y de las mejores series que se han echo nunca. No sé por qué esta serie se puede ver en Prime video en otros países pero no en España. Compré las tres primeras temporadas por que estaba bien de precio. Lamentablemente las posteriores tienen precios prohibitivos y las compraré. La caja llegó rota pero los discos llegaron bien.

There is no warning either on the package or in the advertising, but THESE DISCS ARE AREA 1 ONLY. BRITISH BUYERS, DON'T THROW YOUR MONEY AWAY. THE MANUFACTURER AND THE SELLER DON'T GIVE A DAMN. EVERYDAY PIRACY!
