Meme: 30 Days of Television, Day 5
May. 15th, 2010 10:22 am30 Days of Telly meme yoinked from Calapine.
Day 05 - A show you hate: Perry Mason. How my family can watch whole discs of it end-to-end I do not understand. The plots are predictable, the acting is second-rate, the dialogue is cringe-inducingly '50s (with liberal applications of the "Oh, Robert! Whatever will we do?" school of writing), Raymond Burr looks like a raccoon in need of coffee, and the character I find most interesting and sympathetic is Lt Tragg. Which I gather is not what I am supposed to do. o.O
(This is of course all my opinion and if anyone disagrees violently with me I should like to hear about it. Squee at me hard enough about anything and I'm likely to give it a second chance.)
( List of days under the cut... )
