Law & Order: Trial by Jury
Taking viewers where they have never been before, for the first time, a Law & Order series is told not only from the point-of-view of the prosecutors and police but also from the perspective of the defense attorneys, defendants, judges and jurors. Law & Order: Trial by Jury shows the inner workings of the judicial system, beginning with the arraignment, and continuing through the prosecutors' complicated process of building a case, investigating leads and preparing witnesses for trial. The series stars Bebe Neuwirth (Cheers, Chicago) as Assistant District Attorney, Tracey Kibre and Amy Carlson (NBC's Third Watch) as Assistant District Attorney, Kelly Gaffney. Reprising his Law & Order role will be Fred Dalton Thompson as District Attorney Arthur Branch and the late Jerry Orbach as Lennie Briscoe, a retired police detective working as an Investigator for the District Attorney and Kirk Acevedo (“Band of Brothers”) also stars as Briscoe’s partner, DA Investigator Hector Salazar.
If you're in search of a timeless classic that combines gripping courtroom drama with intricate storytelling, look no further than "Perry Mason." Originally airing from 1957 to 1966, this American legal drama quickly became one of the longest-running and most acclaimed shows in television history. Raymond Burr’s portrayal of the titular character, a brilliant defense attorney, captivated audiences as he navigated through complex cases filled with unexpected twists and turns. The series not only paved the way for future legal dramas but also set a high standard for storytelling in television.
The premise of "Perry Mason" revolves around its titular character who defends clients wrongfully accused of murder. Each episode unfolds like an engaging mystery novel, where viewers are taken on a journey through intricate plots filled with betrayal, intrigue, and suspense. With his keen intellect and sharp wit, Mason unravels layers of deception to reveal the truth—often during dramatic courtroom confrontations that leave audiences at the edge of their seats. This formula has proven to be successful time and again across its nine seasons and 301 episodes.
One key element that makes "Perry Mason" so compelling is its unforgettable cast of characters. Alongside Raymond Burr's iconic performance as Perry Mason are Barbara Hale as Della Street, his ever-loyal secretary, and William Hopper as Paul Drake, the private investigator who aids him in solving crimes. Together they tackle various cases while facing off against Hamilton Burger (William Talman), the Los Angeles District Attorney who always seems to fall short against Mason's formidable prowess. The chemistry between these main characters adds depth to each episode and keeps viewers engaged throughout their legal battles.
