This show was produced because CBS was considering renewing the show for another season. As all of CBS prime time was going to be in color fall of 66, they wanted to see what color would look like.
@@retronewfoundland I knew it! Im a Perry Mason fan🥰🥰🥰STILL get to watch him on reruns and sometimes they show this one in color. Didn't it go off the air around that time?
Yep. The only pre-TV movie episode made in color - and outside of this special episode whose intro is shared here, the next time they did a color presentation was in 1985. I think by then the TV movies were airing on NBC.
If they went for another season, they would've definitely produced it in color.
Wow, recently got into watching Perry Mason, didn't know that one episode was actually produced in color!
Im surprised they produced only one episode in color.
