The HBO series that chronicles the origin story of Perry Mason. Set in 1932 Los Angeles, Perry starts out as an investigator for down on his luck lawyer EB Jonathan when he gets the case of a lifetime. A child who was kidnapped is returned after the ransom is paid, but the child had been murdered. A classic Perry Mason whodunit. This is really good writing and acting. But what I love about this series is the portrayal of LA environment and culture in the 30's, and the introduction of all the Perry Mason characters (Street, Drake, Burger, etc.). Feels like a retro Bosch with its own personality. Love it.
5 stars (out of 5)
