The New Adventures of Perry Mason
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Adventures of Perry Mason (sometimes referred to as The New Perry Mason or merely as Perry Mason) was a revival of the long-running hit television series about Erle Stanley Gardner's brilliant defense attorney, but without the participation of any members of the original cast. It was broadcast by CBS, the same network which had aired the original series, during the 1973-74 season.
All of the original major characters appeared in the revivial, along with Gertie, a receptionist seldom seen in the original (and played by Connie Cezon on the few occasions when she was), and the plots and their devices were along the lines of the original. However, the audiences were not of similar size and this revivial was cancelled at midseason. (Note:this short-lived series is not to be confused with the long-running series of TV-movies which starred Raymond Burr and Barbara Hale from the original series, and which were originally aired from 1985 until shortly before Burr's death in 1993.)
