Featured review
Chapter Six
It's a shame that the pace of the series cannot keep up with the speed Perry Mason passed his bar exams.
Now a fully fledged lawyer with zero experience. I mean would you have experimental brain surgery done by a guy who passed his medical exams yesterday?
So Perry not having paid his dues by taking on some crummy trials to build litigation experience. He is in court defending Emily Dodson. Lose and she fries.
Maynard Barnes the District Attorney gives an opening speech that is two hours long. Thankfully the viewers got the edited version. The judge should had charged him for contempt of court and boring the jury to death. The audience should had cited him for overacting.
Predictably Perry has a nervous start with a coughing fit and it's downhill from there. Of course the script must dictate Perry has to hit rock bottom, because the writers saw Paul Newman in The Verdict. At every turn everything goes against Perry in court.
Outside the court there are flickers of hope as Della and Strickland follow important leads.
Well at least the first series is on the home straight. Other suspects are on the horizon.
