"Perry Mason Episodes"

I mentioned "The Case of the Treacherous Toupee" last week, which starred Robert Redford. Here's a few from the vault: "The Case of the Drowning Duck"; "The Case of the Runaway Corpse"; and "The Case of the Negligent Nymph" to name a few. Leave it to yours truly to come up with a few of my own.

1) "The Case of the Arrogant Assistant Camp Attendant"

Perry Mason defends a fifth degree wizard, when Lisa, the asst. camp counselor, is murdered on a camping trail.

2) "The Case of Murder on the China Express"

Perry defends an ex nurse, Agatha Christie, who's accused of murdering the owner of a Chinese restaurant Motive: While dining, she asks the owner for more black bean sauce for her scallops dish but is denied.

3) "The Case of the I Know Where's the Beef Tacos"

Perry defends a budding hypnotherapist.

The Defendant: I didn't kill him, Perry. The tacos were horrible. Just shredded beef, tiny tomatoes, and no lettuce and cheese. But I didn't kill him!

Perry: I believe you!

4) "The Case of the Terrified Shopper"

Perry defends an older man ( late 50's ) for ineptitude He's being sued by his mother, who believes her son's shopping skills are not up to par. It all starts when he returns home with a 2lb. 6 oz. chicken-not the 2 lb. 9 oz which was requested; the wrong brand of canned tomatoes; and the one inch center cut pork chops as opposed to the two inch thick ones.

5) "The Case of the Prissy Vegan"

Mason defends a man who is married to a vegan. But after years of bean sprouts, tofu, and every thing organic the poor dolt loses it. And is accused of her murder.

Dolt: I wanted a Big Mac and fries and a large coke. I couldn't take it anymore. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Mason has his hands full in this exciting episode.

6) "The Case of the Annoying Photographer"

While Mason is vacationing in California, he comes across an empowerment group. The members-ten strong- enlist his aid in finding the murderer of an annoying photographer. All have motives. A tough case for Mason.

7) "The Case of the Thing from Outer Space"

Mason decides, although reluctantly, to defend an alien carrot from outer space. Della Street and Paul Drake believe the carrot is guilty, but Mason doesn't agree. James Arness guest stars as the carrot.

8) "The Case of the Blogged-Down Writer"

Middle aged man is accused of writing forays into the infantile. Once again, Perry has his hands full.
