Can’t wait for the quality Discovery show that will replace it.

Damnit. I really liked the second season. Was hoping they would get another since Robert Downey Jr and his wife were producing and they would want to stay in business with them.

But I’m a bit surprised … had to be an expensive show to produce though with the period and shooting in LA

Couldn't get into to it and it looked expensive to make.

But, But, But, it ticked all the boxes.

Paul Drake a black man, Della Street a white woman lesbian, Hamilton Burger a metrosexual/homosexual trying his best to stay in the closet. Of course also Perry Mason, a white 40 something motorcycle riding, part time renegade who will bend the law to get what he wants attorney.

Was S2 bad? I enjoyed S1 JUST enough to continue watching it, but not enough to jump into S2. But I didn't pick up on a ton of wokeness in the first season.

Tell me you haven't seen the new version of Perry Mason without telling me you haven't seen it.

Every word I typed is true about the characters on the show and how they are presented.
