Perry Mason and Rawhide



A while back I reviewed a Perry Mason movie collection from CBS/Paramount.  As I stated earlier I grew up on Perry Mason and I enjoy the returns on TV and the newly released Perry Mason Movie Collections.
 
Evidently I’m not the only one who enjoys the Raymond Burr series because CBS/Paramount has released not one, not two, but three additional double feature DVD collections of the Perry Mason Movie Collections.

The old gang is back in the made-for-TV movies and I am thrilled!

Collection 1 features the return of the stalwart lawyer and Mason defends a nun accused of murder.

In Collection 2 Perry investigates the on-air murder of a talk show host and meets up with a long-lost flame whose husband is accused of killing a blackmailer.

Collection 3 steeps Mason into the world of horror fiction-one where a famous writer is murdered and when a famous madam is murdered Perry investigates and uncovers blackmail and lies.

All three collections make for fine TV viewing with intriguing plots and clever twists and turns that only Perry Mason stories can provide.

For another classic TV series be sure to check out the last season of Western series Rawhide, starring Clint Eastwood in his TV breakout role.

The Eighth Season DVD Collection contains 13 episodes starring Eastwood as Rowdy Yates who is now the trail boss.

From running into criminals, trapped in a mine to facing up against a ferocious bear the Final Season delivers on all accounts and goes out with a bang!
