Barbara Hale had already been working in the entertainment industry for years before she was offered the role of Della Street on Perry Mason. She almost didn’t take the role, as she was intending to retire soon. Barbara was busy taking care of three kids, and she was happier at home than at the workplace. However, a couple of factors ended up convincing her to sign on to Perry Mason. Two of the producers on the show were Barbara’s old friends, who insisted that the show was only going to run for 18 episodes. There was also the fact of the matter that Barbara was old friends with the man who was set to be it’s titular star.
Raymond Burr was one of the first people that Barbara Hale had met when first arriving in Hollywood. At the time, both stars were signed to RKO Pictures. Barbara ended up agreeing to play the character of Della, but Perry Mason ended up lasting for many more than 18 episodes! The show was a massive hit, staying in production for nearly a decade a yielding well over 300 episodes from 1957 to 1966.
During her time at Perry Mason, Barbara Hale received lots of letters from fans. Many of these letters saw fans ask the actress when her character and Raymond were ever going to hook up on the screen. Not only that, but many also wondered if Barbara and Raymond were an item in real life. As it turns out, the characters of Perry Mason and Della Street were actually prohibited from ever having any explicit romantic interactions.

Eat 😮,
Yes a big big big fan ❤❤❤
I love Perry Mason and there's nothing nicer to me than a cozy rainy night rewatching this wonderful series. The Della Street character was so classy, and she always looked like a million bucks. There were so many great actors throughout the show and watched all the TV movies as well. Thanks for remembering Barbara Hale and this incredible show.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. Which episode of the show appealed to you the most?
Hale knew of Burr's `proclivities. So no marriage there, then...
Good Morning And Afternoon @@FactsVerse, Does You're Say Did Hollywood Men A Natural Blond Such As Kenneth Tobey And Simon Oakland?
You sound like my kind of girl. 🙂 Although I've seen every episode at least 3 times, I still watch Perry Mason nearly everynight @ 11:30pm on MeTV.
Not on MeTV they chop it up to much with comercheals
I watched perry mason in the 60's as a kid, it's 2023, and I'm watching reruns, on the cable channels today. I love that show.
Della Street, er, Barbara Hale, was a customer of mine a couple of times when I was working my way through college at a part-time job at the May Co. North Hollywood store. First time she came in (1976), the other two sales people had no clue who she was. I recognized her immediately and said to the other two, I'll help her. "Why, who is she?" one asked. "That's Barbara Hale," I replied. "Huh? Who?" said the other salesperson. "She's Perry Mason's secretary, Della Street!" I explained. Slowly, the lights went on in their heads. Meanwhile, I went over and showed her I knew who she was -- and what a nice customer she was, indeed. Classy lady!
I met Raymond Burr in Korea while he was on a tour. A very large person who was a respectful visitor.
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! We're very happy to know that you had a chance to meet Raymond. What other types of video would you like to see?
Barbara was a great actress thru out her career. She was a class act.
I love Perry Mason a great show even today.
We're happy to know that you love the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
Still love watching it twice a day,Barbara was just a natural beauty an always kept it throughout her life.
Ive recently started watching Perry Mason again after many years and im absolutely loving it. Its so nice to go back and hear something with a good story line, great character chemistry and clear diction..and i love those wonderful character actors and guest celebrities from the Golden years of Hollywood. Without the gratuitous gore and numbing violence that is today a feature of many drama action pics...where the visual effects substitute for the story line. And the violence is the plot......I understand times continually change....but its so nice to go back to a simpler time where black and white wasnt just on the screen....society had a greater sense of ethics, and moral fiber...and yes even though great progress has been made in many areas since that time....the level of dehumanizing we see today is a sad indictement of what could have been. Its nice to know that our film ingenuity is our own little time machine...that we can board and experience over and over..... Cheers..
You said it all...and very cogently!
I always loved it when Paul would appropriately greet Della as "Hi beautiful". Great series, great characters, stories, clothes, automobiles, ect. Another gem on the show was Ray Collins. Read his bio some time. Started in vaudeville, worked with Orson Wells. He would steal ever scene he was in. Love the show, still watch it today. Raymond Burr, toured with many USO shows around the world to support the troops. If you remember some episodes where Perry had a broken arm. This was real because Raymond Burr (a Canadian) was in a plane crash on one of his USO tours and broke his arm. Talk about the show and how it was regarded amongst his peers. The one and only Bette Davis stood in for Perry on one episode. At one time, Burr was one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood. Great, Great show.
Ray Collins - With a cool name like Tragg, you’re sure to get attention !!
I, too, look at the Perry Mason show and am glad it's on TV.
I enjoy ur comment and the informative interesting info😊 Thank you 😊
Yeah. Walk into an office and say to a secretary. Hi beautiful these days and you’ll have a lawsuit on your hands sexual-harassment.

I watch Perry Mason most nights of METV - great series, I never get tired of watching the show.
Us too! Thanks for bringing back memories. Which Perry Mason episode is the most memorable for you?
@@FactsVerse maybe the episode where Raymond Burr plays two characters, one is Perry Mason, the other an old Sea Dog.
@@FactsVerse I liked the episode when Bette Davis filled in for Raymond Burr.
Yeah it's also nice that when I hit the info button,
I can see who the guest stars will be.
Most of the old shows on MeTV don't show you that,
which is very annoying. The gust stars ar the main
reason I watch old TV series.
You're fortunate to get METV. It's been off of DISH network for around 2 years now. Grrrrrrrr......
I still watch Perry Mason Every day I truly enjoy the chemistry that the two of them had with each other I enjoy watching Paul Burke he was so cool Perry Mason is something worth watching for years to come
We're happy to know that you're a fan of the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
Just a heads up
..his name was Paul Drake, not Burke.
Thank you
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Barbara Hale as Della Street! She was smart, intelligent, and professional and did her job with due diligence!! I never really imagined Della and Perry hooking up I just loved them as really GOOD FRIENDS❤❤💃😁👍👍 Thanks Facts Verse👍👍👍❤😁
You're very much welcome! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
Great video. I was always fascinated with Barbara Hale and her long time role as Perry Mason's legal aide. She was what the personification of a supporting actor/actress should be. She will be forever one of the greatest actresses I ever saw!
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
In modern times someone of Della intelligence would probably be a attorney. I know the late Lee iacocoa said he had a personal secretary Mary in the 1960s that was smarter than many of his vice presidents at Ford motor company. A different era.
I always felt the "unspoken" relationship between "Perry and Della" was there. she went to his apartment, he went to her house, etc. In the movies, there was a lot of clues that showed them together, but living apart. But in the first movie, he had became a judge and she went to work for someone else and they hadn't seen each other for awhile, so it looked like they called it quits until he started defending her, then it was "back on"😍😍😍
Us too! Thank you so much for bringing back memories. Be safe and have a great day 💕
You do know that in real life Perry told Della he was gay. She kept it a secret till after his death. Fact.
@@LeeCopus Actually, I think most folks had heard, that Raymond was gay...not a big deal in Hollywood!
@@curbozerboomer1773 Not your business or mine.
@@barrylane7264 Ahhh, he got triggered.
I loved Perry Mason when I was a kid. All the characters had personality and are memorable. The show made me a Raymond Burr fan 😊
I watch the Perry Mason show every chance I can! I love the show. The entire cast is/was outstanding!!🎉
I watched this 60 yrs ago w my grandma and still watching it now but grandmas gone
My wife and I watch the original Perry Mason series every day. Such a great show with intricate plots. Barbara Hale was a huge reason for its success. There was no possibility of off screen romance, because one, she was married as you mentioned, and two, Burr was gay.
Barbara was a wonderful actress. ❤️
I remember Barbara Hale. Her son, William Katt was great. She was Mrs.Paul Hinkley, Ralph Hinkley's mom. They did an episode together- Who's Woo In America.
Whenever they did the conventions, Mrs. Hale pinched his cheek and said: Isn't he such a good boy?
William Katt then said: Mom, Please! Not in front of my fans, Entertainment Tonight, TMZ and Betsy Goodrich and her pets.
When she passed away, it really hurts. Thank goodness I helped him come to terms.
He even thanked me for my condolences and kind words.😅😊
William Katt played Carrie's prom date in the 1976 horror film, Carrie.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
No, Earl Rogers was the inspiration for the Perry Mason character. Erle Stanley Gardner was also an attorney but was more noted for being an author. He wrote, among many other things, the Perry Mason stories. Barbara Hale had one of the most fabulous voices on television.
Erle Stanley Gardner played the judge in the final Perry Mason episode. Raymond Burr originally tried out for the role of Hamilton Burger (Hamburger?) while William Talman tried out for the role of Perry Mason. Barbara Hale worked with her son William Katt twice; in the Perry Mason TV movies and she played Ralph's mother on the Greatest American Hero.
Interesting fact, Earl Rogers was born in Perry and his long time assistent was his daughter. No wonder that the thought of a romantic affair between the Perry Mason and his assistent was unpleasant to him.
My mom got me hooked on Perry Mason when I was a kid. Still love this show years later.
We're happy to know that you love the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
I was a huge Perry Mason fan from an early age and wanted to be a lawyer when I grew up. That didn't happen but I did follow in the footsteps of Della Street (and also my grandma) and became a legal secretary.
I grew up on Perry Mason. Still watch it every day. I always thought he was so handsome.
We're happy to know that you love the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
@@FactsVerse It's hard to pick a best one. I actually love the two hour movie where he's a judge and he steps down to help Della. It really got to me that he cared that much for a very good friend.
@@FactsVerse Couldn't possibly have a favorite; too many great ones. But while there were a bunch of later episodes I liked, I often agreed with Raymond Burr who once said that the show should have ended after the fifth season. Two early favorites are COT Howling Dog, COT Petulant Partner. Two later favorites are COT Telltale Tap, COT Unwelcome Well
I am actually sitting on my couch looking at a 1972 "Adam-12" & Barbara Hale/Della Street is on" this also wonderful series" as a mother of a teenage😊 & Ms. Hale acted well in her TV role in black & white, just like on Perry Mason show❤ 🎬😊
I enjoy Perry Mason even today as well as the entire cast😊Barbara showed women that u can be independent, make ur own money by working as a actress, a lawyer, a professional assistant, etc.and look good at it!! 😊 Bravo Ms. Barbara Hale 😊 RIP🌹❤✝️
Any comments mentioned yet that it would have been difficult for them to hook up because aside from her marriage, he was gay. Yes, they have indeed.
Was shocked when it came out that he was gay but it made no difference. I watch it every day on FETV.
She and Raymond Burr were great together in the show.
He was gay. So what?? Robert Reed was gay, and he played Mike Brady, a devoted husband and father in The Brady Bunch!
So, he was gay. I, too, still watch and love Perry Mason ❤😊❤😊❤😊RIP🌹
I am obsessed with the 1950's series. I have watched every single one and love them. Admire them both and Barbara Hale is just stunning.
I loved the original 1-hour programs and the 2-hour movies.
Us too! Thanks for the trip down memory lane. What other types of video would you like to see?
Avid fan of the original Perry Mason; the entire cast was so authentically natural. It didn’t seem that one was watching a show; it was real life…. and what was more, no gratuitous -foul language; sex; violence..
It was entertainment at its best. Even enjoyed the made for TV movies……all the stars suited each other👍👍👍
As a teen in those days, I remember William Tallman, the DA Hamilton Burger, was caught in some kind of sex ring and he was removed from the show. If you watched/watch the episodes you'll note a number of guest star DA's taking over the role. I suspect you can Google Tallman to find out.
Totally agree. They seemed liked thsy had work together for years even in the first year of the series
I need to ask a question. It seems to me that Ray Collins, who played Lt. Tragg so very well, was a jokester in real life. Can anyone confirm or deny?
My dad got me hooked on this show.
We're glad to know that you and your dad are a fan! Which episode is the most memorable for you?
I was a fan at a very early age. My parents watched Perry and Alfred Hitchcock, I would sneak out of my room just to watch both. In high school I read every book by Gardner (he wrote under a different name also). I still watch Perry everyday.
Fun stuff! We're very happy to know that you're a fan of Barbara. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Interesting video, but Barbara Hale only guest-starred on one episode of Ironside. As for Erle Stanley Gardner, his control over the characters came from the fact that he created them. Gardner was the author of the Perry Mason books. David Ogden Stiers played D.A. Michael Reston in several of the Perry Mason movies. After Burr's death, they brought in Paul Sorvino and Hal Holbrook who played lawyers who were friends of Perry Mason. They did not try to replace Burr as Perry Mason.
This program was on every week in our house from '57 to '67, my dad being a lawyer and Mom was a big fan of Erle Stanley Gardner's books, of which she had all. I still have them.
A bonus to watching Perry Mason is seeing all the old 50's and 60's cars!!!
I loved the Perry Mason show. I still do
My Gosh Barbara you had so much Talent...love you backing up Perry Mason...lots of my very very special prayers 4 you and your families...Blessed you..🙏🇺🇸❤🇺🇸🙏❤
Beautiful words, thank you for your message for Barbara. May she find peace 🙏
Yes I was a Fan . I really enjoyed all their shows together. 😊
Thanks for sharing! Be safe and have a great day ahead ❤
i still watch the reruns to this day, Barbra was so pretty and capable, i enjoy the old cars, just the whole atmosphire of the show.
I just recently got back into reruns and fell in love with the show all over again.❤
We're happy to know that you're a fan of the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
I've read some of the Perry Mason books by Gardner. Perry and Della were definitely an item in the books!
These two had chemistry in the show.
The books make a good read.
Love Perry Mason, still watch everyday
We're happy to know that you love the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
I've watched every episode. One of the best series ever.

We're happy to know that you're a fan of the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
Have always been a fan of Perry Mason. I especially enjoyed the episodes of the 1950s. It's just something about how they were directed and the storyline. Shalom
I love this show and I love Raymond and Barbara.

What a great show, we watched the originals when I was a kid and later the family was happy to watch the new movies, they were all great.
Mother of THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO..

Believe it or not...
That was a good show. My wife and I are watching them all now on one of the cable channels. It may be in the old black and white format, but the writing was good -- much better than today's fare, and it's kind of nice to see the time period I grew up in. Those giant "battleship" cars. Good thing gasoline was so cheap back then!!!
I agree! It was a great show, my husband and I watch it twice a day. The cars were beautiful. I read the Ford Motor Co. Supplied all their cars too.
Oh, my! I literally DROOL over those cars. I think they're mostly all placed there as "product placement" deals. Also, there are the little "ads" that appear (an early version of "pop ups?") when the end of show credits are running. Stuff like old-time household cleaners and all. I'm 68, so I'm old enough to remember those "old" cars. They wree big as boats when you were inside. I don't think I'd have much trouble living in my car if I had one of those old behemouths. They were so heavilly built they really needed thoee big gas-guzzler engines to get them moving. One of the other things I like about that show is the "classines" and "genteel" "civilized" manner in which most people behaved back then. These days, people think being ignorant and rude is somehow a 'virtue.' @@chrissyyork8646
I have Read *Perry Mason books* when I was 10 years Old. Continued to read them again n again over the years.
I bought a whole lot of Pocket Books n Others from the Roadside Book Sellers dirt cheap.
I still have them 30 years later. Most are not available now. I wish someone would publish fresh Books again.
I started watching the *Perry Mason shows on CZcams*
I really enjoy watching them.
*Della Street* is my Favourite Character along with *Paul Drake*
*Brabara* was absolutely the Right Choice for the role of *Della Street*
There is something so Elegant n Loving about her Role. I mean she did a great job.
You just had to *Love* her.
Thanks for this information.
Will continue to watch the Show again.
I remember my mother watching Perry Mason during the fifties and sixties. Now these are my favorite shows to watch on my fire stick and MeTV.
Actually, David Ogden Stiers played Perry Mason's foil in some of the early made-for-TV movies; he did not replace Raymond Burr after the latter's death in 1993. Instead, Hal Holbrook and Paul Sorvino took turns as "other" lawyers "filling in" for a "vacationing" Perry for the last six movies.
Great content and superb narration
That she continued to act as long as she did I knew. She played on Perry Mason and on Ironside but I didn't realize that she continued even longer than that.😮🎉❤❤😮
She was married to William Katt (Bill Williams) an actor who appeared on the show a few times. They were married a long time for Hollywood.
He co starred with Betty White in a sitcom A DATE WITH THE ANGELS in 1957
Great show, one of the best of all time... 😏
I agree! It still is great to watch close to 66 years later! My Mom loved this show and I started watching it at around three years old and I have watched it in reruns and would love to own the DVD! The whole shows if possible. Wonderful cast and guest stars including Barbara Eden and Betty Davis❤
Absolutely, we feel the same way! Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What is your favorite episode of Perry Mason?
@FactsVerse - Two. The one involving when Paul Drake was framed for murder, and Della also was framed for murder... 😏
I was absolutely mesmerized by Perry Mason as a boy in the 1960s, and I enjoy it even more now.... impeccable acting by the superb cast and the stories do not go out of style.
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
I still enjoy Perry Mason soooo much! I found a channel on my "Fire stick" that shows back-to-back episodes, beginning with Season 1: Episode 1!! I thought I had seen all the episodes...WRONG! I can definitely say I have now seen 8 MORE episodes that are like brand new (to me)! In so many ways, those were more "simple" times. There were more morals, & manners used by most people! Of course, NO period of time was/is perfect, yet it seems like "those were the days"!😊
I'm still watching Perry Mason I love the program I'm watching all the reruns over and over every night
I was and still am a fan I wasn’t aware of the made for tv movies so thanks for making me aware of that
In watching the old shows, it is interesting to see the same actors and actresses over and over, sometimes as the murder victim, the defendant or the murderer. Its actually kind of funny.
I was a big fan and I continue to watch it 🎇😀
I never get tired of watching it 😊
In the early Perry Mason books, Perry proposes marriage to Della (more than once). She turned him down (each time). She explained that if she were to marry him, he would install her in a house in the suburbs and turn the management of the house and the raising of their kids to her. He'd still focus most of his time and energy on his legal practice. Della wanted to be part of his life and felt she could do that better as his secretary than as his wife.
Interesting, thank you so much for sharing this info about Perry. What other types of video would you like to see?
Yes I'm definitely a fan of the original Perry Mason !
Barbara Hale was gorgeous and very talented.
ONE PIC was not her - .Patricia Barry.
@Ms, correct you are; I have suggested numerous times that Blane view these videos BEFORE narrating them.
I am just viewing season 1 of Perry Mason. So far so good. :).
The earlier seasons are the best …
I still watch the reruns.
I read one of ESG's Perry Mason novels, and there was a relationship alright, but limited to a long kiss in the car when Perry drove Della home.
Thanks for that story as i enjoyed Perry Mason.
You're very much welcome! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
david ogden stiers did not take over the role of perry mason there were 4 movies left on the contract when raymond burr died paul sorvino done the first one and hal holbrook done the last three
Earle Stanley Gardner wrote the Perry Mason novels, beginning in the late thirties. They are easy to read puzzles usually ending in a big courtroom scene. Gardner himself was trained in the law but he wrote for the pulp magazines of the twenties and thirties, mostly detective stories when his first Perry Mason novel became a big seller.
Erle, Stanley Gardner, wrote Perry Mason. He was not based on Earl, Stanley Gardner.
He was based on Earl, Rogers, a famous California attorney.
Famous Texas attorney whose mansion turned hotel is supposedly haunted,the Black something, Swan perhaps?
Good Video/Info.
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
An incredible actress, person and friend to those she knew. Deserving of every accolade in every show, especially Perry Mason, who I adored, loved and still hold close to my heart. ( Raymond reminded me of my father, a lawyer with 'slicked' back black hair!!! ) Wonderful actress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't know William Katt was B. Hale's son. If I'm not mistaken, he also played a large role in Steven King's original (movie) version of Carrie.
William Katt looks a lot like his Dad Bill Williams. I see Barbara in his face too
They did become great friends.
Attorney Gardner even portrayed a judge in various episodes, based on his own books about the characters
Gardner appeared as a judge only in the final episode, "The Case of the Final Fadeout".
@@kevinmadden1645 yes, thanks for clarifying! I appreciate it!! That was my birth year: 1966!
Interesting, thanks for sharing this info! What other types of video would you like to see?
David Ogden Stiers did not replace Raymond Burr as Perry Mason. He played the district attorney.
My husband’s favorite show and coincidentally it was always on when he came to pick me up for a date in high school.
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! How about you? Which show appealed to you the most?
I am a fan of Perry Mason and love Ms Barbara Street also beautiful remember l have of there show they don’t do stories like that anymore
We're happy to know that you love the show and Barbara. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
First time I ever saw Perry Mason I was hooked! Have been a fan ever since! I still watch the reruns to this day! Probably will till I leave this world! Earle Stanley Gardner should have let Perry and Della hook up at least before the last episode of the older episodes ! Would have made a lot of fans happy!
Well Della and Perry did have a romantic relationship in the tv movies
I have the full set on DVD. These are great
I love Perry Mason. All the actors were phenomenal, real pros with terrific and very genuine chemistry and camaraderie. I think that's what truly shines through and still makes it so popular to this day. That plus theres no gratuitous violence and definitely no nudity and sex. Raymond Burr, Barbara Hale, William Hopper, William Tallman and the fantastic Ray Collins. I love the show so much I own the complete set and watch it every day on tv. Even the theme song is one of the most iconic. Growing up in the late 50s and early 60s was amazing not least of which was the terrific classic TV shows like Perry Mason.
still watch it everyday!!
We're happy to know that you love the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
Missing from the narrative is the story that the network and the producers were keen on updating Perry Mason's secretary with a younger, more contemporary actress. But Raymond Burr would have none of it. He told them that if Barbara Hale was not to be Della Street in the new Perry Mason films then he would simply not be Perry Mason. And that was that.
They don't write 'em like that anymore. [Greg Kihn]. Great show, especially the early years. Perry always had the latest Ford or GM product, while Paul had the latest sports car. Looking back we see quite a few future Hollywood stars had guest roles on the show at one time or another.
Great Show!!
We're happy to know that you love the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
I have watched every episode of Perry Mason at least 10 times. I watch it when it's on tv (FETV), Paramount+, IMDB (Freevee), n other streaming services. The show came out when my mom was a child but we watched the reruns with her as kids. I love the show so much, along with many others from then, even tho they started well b4 my time. I still watch bc it takes me back to my childhood n the good days we had. I also love seeing the actors n actresses of Old Hollywood. Shows back then were classy n just made sense. I knew Raymond was gay but I didn't care. U could tell their relationship was implied and that was good enough for me.
We're happy to know that you love the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
I understand that Barbara's being married wasn't the only reason there was no hookup between her and Raymond Burr.
Yes i l9ved all the Perry Mason shows and Della Street.
I grew up watching Perry Mason. My grandmother was a huge fan of the show and watched it whenever it was on. She never thought there was anything more than a professional relationship between Perry and Della, and I believe her. Watching the show today, I can see that Perry and Della were friends and cared about each other, but there was no romance in the relationship, because neither would accept it. All of the actors on the show were excellent. As for the movies, I believe David Ogden Stiers played a prosecutor in a few of the shows, and he was also very good and believable in that role.
Loved Barbara Hale everything about her especially the way she carried herself on Perry Mason in which I’ve seen every episode.
We're very happy to know that you're a fan of Barbara. Which of her roles appealed to you the most?
Thank you for sharing about the Carter

One doesn't appreciate being conned into watching a history of Barbara Hale on Perry Mason by he hook headline that she confirmed rumors in her last interview; a classic bait and switch.
I hope you noticed that a couple of the early clips of Barbara are actually of Patricia Barry, who did resemble Hale.
