Perry Mason - Seasons 6 and Beyond
CBS in their infinite wisdom has discontinued releasing Perry Mason beginning Season 6 and beyond.  I think that it would be great for the Shout! Factory to pick up where they left off!  It's perfect.

Why did CBS/Paramount decide not to continue with the series?  It's a bona fide hit and I'm sure it would continue to sell well.

RE: Perry Mason - Seasons 6 and Beyond

I saw this on Amazon.com:

I JUST READ THE HOME THEATER FORUM THREAD ON SEASON 6 - IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN; PERRY MASON IS NO LONGER ON CBS/PARAMOUNT'S HOME VIDEO RELEASE SCHEDULE. THEY KILLED THE PROJECT THEMSELVES - AS WE ALL FEARED THEY WOULD - WITH THIS INSANE MARKETING APPROACH: SPLIT THE SEASONS INTO TWO PARTS, CHARGE WAY TOO MUCH MONEY FOR THEM, AND ALLOW A LOT OF TIME TO GO BY BETWEEN RELEASES. AND SURE ENOUGH, PEOPLE REBELLED, COULDN'T AFFORD IT, OR JUST PLAIN TUNED OUT. GREAT JOB, PARAMOUNT.

Well, if you actually go read Home Theater Forum, further down the posting chain, they are saying it will be coming out after all, Season 6 volume 1 in October.  Nothing has been officially announced yet, but don't sound all the alarm bells just yet.

And even if they had, they weren't going to license it out anyway so this thread is moot.

CBS HAS ANNOUNCED RELEASE of Perry Mason Season 6 Vol 1--should be released on Oct. 4 this year with Vol 2 expected by end of year or early in '12. It is already listed on Barnes/Noble bookstores for pre-order at $35.95. Keep pressure on CBS/Paramount to continue this series, Perry Mason is THE MAN!
