Perry Mason Perry Mason was a long - running TV series that aired on CBS from 1957 to 1966 . Based on the equally long established series of detective novels by Erle Stanley Gardner , the series starred Raymond Burr as the titular defense attorney , whose courtroom theatrics and careful sleuthing resolved many murder cases . A major boast , often mocked in parodies or guest spots on comedy shows , was that Perry never lost a case ( and apart from three known exceptions or so , he never did , and even those were usually either reversed or the client turned out to be an imposter ) . As with the books , all episode titles began " The Case of the . . . " and usually involved alliteration ( " The Case of the Caretaker ' s Cat , " " Shoplifter ' s Shoe , " etc . ) Although there were other adaptations ( in radio , film , and even a 1973 series with a different cast ) , it was Raymond Burr ' s portrayal of Perry Mason that became iconic ( and moved Burr from character actor status to a major celebrity ) . A 1985 reunion movie , " Perry Mason Returns " , aired to high ratings , followed by a semi - regular movie series ( similar to " Columbo " ) on NBC for a total of twenty - five installments between 1986 and 1993 . Even after Burr ' s death in 1993 , the series continued ( retitled " A Perry Mason Mystery " ) with four more movies ( with the same supporting cast and a guest lawyer asked by a pre - occupied , off - screen Perry to fill - in ) through 1995 .
