** The theme song, "Park Avenue Beat", by Fred Steiner. [httphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCaCXXCM42YpaAIbMKb7eY Seriously, just listen].
** Equally awesome is the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJqbBwLdfEE rerecording] used for the TV movies.
* [[The CSI Effect]]: Real-life defense attorneys started to notice a "Perry Mason Syndrome" with juries becoming hesitant to acquit a defendant without a confession from someone else on the stand (the standard is, of course, reasonable doubt). Some prosecutors similarly noticed a hesitance to ''convict'' without a confession on the stand.
Line 8:
** Perry actually lost 3 cases in the Raymond Burr series:
*** Episode 1.38, "The Case of the Terrified Typist" - the one most people who think "Perry only lost once" think of: the big case of the episode ends in Burger's favor. Too bad they were trying an imposter, invalidating the entire trial.
*** Episode 6.28, "The Case of the Witless Witness" - this is the easiest to forget, because it's not the main case of the episode, but one which he loses at the beginning. And this was an appellate court so Mason lost the original case too.
*** Episode 7.04, "The Case of the Deadly Verdict" - another where the episode starts with Perry losing, this time because his client lied to him. He spends the rest of the episode setting things right.
* [[Lawful Good]]: The main characters.
