- You probably missed some tell-tale signs that Perry and Della were a lot closer than you thought on "Perry Mason." See the scenes from the show that prove it, as Raymond Burr tells author Brian McFadden about his real-life relationship with the lovely Barbara Hale.
He said once that he truly loved her. You can tell that they had a deep and respectable relationship.💖
I believe it! I do think that deep down he was attracted to her inside and out. I’m saying that because Rock Hudson and Doris Day ( Pillow Talk) were not attracted to each other at all. ( yes I know Rock was a homosexual- I don’t understand that way of thinking).
@@Jantv81 You know Raymond Burr was gay, too, right?
@@Hurdles.KicksAMan. yes he was guy
Barbara Hale was wow in a small package. "Hello, beautiful," said Paul Drake. RIP William Hopper (1915 - 1970).
William Hopper, son of Hedda Hopper who did a gossip type column for newspapers. I, too, miss William.
They had a deep affection for each other that never faded.
She knew he was gay for 35 years and never said a word.
Barbara Hale was a real beauty! Always enjoyed watching her.
Perry mason is easily n my top ten tv shows of all time.
Mine too
I always knew they truly loved each other, it was so very obvious.
I am a strong Perry Mason fan, I watch it every day; love that era Women dressed with class and sophistication.
My husband and I watch Perry Mason every weekday morning on Me-TV. We really enjoy watching Perry and Della. Regardless about Raymond being gay, they had a true and deep affection for each other. ♥️♥️
Andie Lather We watch "Leave It To Beaver" then "Perry Mason" every morning. We also don’t care if Raymond was gay or not, loved their friendship.
@@kerrywilhite7846 He was not gay
viviane beget , there are reports that he was, but I DON'T CARE. I liked him as an actor, don’t care about his private life.
Kerry Wilhite I agree ☝️
@@kerrywilhite7846 It's not a report, he was with the same man from 1960 until he died.
Barbara Hale was every bit the classy, personable and warm individual in real life as she was as Della Street on Perry Mason. It was easy for her to play herself on the show -- and she did!
I bet in real life she was in real life as she was on Della Street an exact copy of Barbara
I watch Perry Mason twice a day on weekdays on FETV. Never mind that I haven’t hit an episode I haven’t seen before. I love this show.
@Joanne McMillan, I do also. I have all the shows and movies on DVD. If you really want a treat, check out Perry Mason fanfiction.com.
There is a line from the Perry Mason TV movies that sticks in my mind as showing the feelings that Barbra Hale had for Raymond Burr. Della is talking to the long time secretary of a murdered blackmailer. The victim's secretary talks about her boss being difficult, even cruel at times; but never with her. Della comments that what they had was like a marriage. She asks "How long were you together?". She answers "Thirty three years." Della says, "I've been with mine over 40."
Without a doubt my favorite show of all time. Nothing but class. The tribute that Barbara did for Raymond shortly after his death said it all. RIP to Barbara and Raymond .
My favorite "Classic" show too!😗
I am obsessed with Perry Mason TV shows and the TV movies...I love them!! I do miss Paul in the movies...but Perry and Della together...there's nothing better!! 💙
Perry , Della and Paul, a class act all the way , as actors and in real life . A great show before good writers went extinct .
I always favored William Hopper on that show!!!
I always felt like they should be together!!! Love them
Their genuine affection for each other came through on the screen
Just recently started watching the show and I love it. Mason was a very handsome man.
Aren't they just adorable?
I so enjoy Perry Mason.
Adorable is the perfect word, Gail!
Mi favorite time capsule enjoy seeing cars ,fashion and the good manners of that time 😊
My favorite time capsule too, Maria.
I just so loved Perry Mason.
Perry and Della were the perfect couple.
Love your name, J R
@@Texas1836 Thank you.
They had great chemistry and were longtime friends...having great respect for each other 👍
Another favorite shows Dallas and Knotts Landing and Falcon Crest. Of course Miami Vice with Don Johnson wow those shoes will never be forgotten
Perry Mason, when TV was worth watching. Now I watch all the reruns, and I still love it.
Yes, Barbara was an absolute knockout.
Knockout is right!
Always enjoy Raymond Burr and Barbara Hale and Perry Mason and I still look at it to this day!! I remember sitting and watching it as a young girl with my grandmother!! And that was the first time I considered studying law!!
You and me both. I watched it with my parents and it feels like a soft, warm blanket.
I’m on my third book….love them! Looking for more! Thank you for putting these memories into the books. What a great series and super actors ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much, Kathy. I grew up with the show, never thinking I'd eventually meet Raymond. I became more and more fascinated as I talked with Barbara's closest friends...just wonderful people!
Rest in Peace 😢 Della Street & Perry Mason
One of the best shows ever on television . Too pure and chaste. Th ere were sparks but never got the flames going.
Still love those episodes and watch twice a day every day.
I’m 65 and grew up watching Perry and Della. They will forever be my favorites! I’ve done a lot of reading about Raymond Burr and he was a class act! He donated a fortune to charities and things that were important to him. RIP Raymond! You were a man amongst men!
even if he was a twinkle toes
I watch the show everyday on metv!
The best show ever !
I always wondered about Della and Perry if they had loving feelings for each other. Thanks a bunch for this video....
Still watch it on MyT.V I have it on Demand. Never miss it. Love Perry Mason 💕
@Catmandu,I do too every morning at 9 am and every night at 11:30 PM! I even have all the TV shows and movies on DVDS.
He comes on here every night so I have become a fan of the show all over again I really enjoy it
I love watching Raymond Burr because my dad looked enough like him during the early shows to have been his twin. Dad is gone now, so this is so my way of getting to see him again.
My grandfather absolutely loved Perry Mason, talking about him like he was a friend. I loved watching this show, still do, and the theme music can bring me to tears. If my grandfather only knew about Raymond's personal life!
@Zebra M At that time, yes, it would have.
@@kibblenbits It still does!
I love Perry Mason and also the opening theme music!
I just love watching the two of them together and still wish i could but in and say too Perry can i be the one too take her for the ride of her life? The decent beauty that captured my heart and the hearts of many more beautiful 🤩.🌹. R.I.P. all of you and may the star’s always shine in your hearts ♥️
Perry Mason was a class act, not misogynistic even if the people around him were, one company was full of men saying they didn’t pay attention to what the women at work would say. Perry always gave equal credit where credit was due. Della and Perry are one of the all time BEST tv partners. Paul Drake is right up there with them.
Agreed, Kathleen. He respected Della's opinions on things and took her advice. You said it best when you used the term "partners." To me, it was always clear they were a team!
"Hello beautiful."
The role model show that set the standard for all courtroom TV shows to follow. There was chemistry between all of the major cast members and their on-screen characters. Lieutenant Tragg (Ray Collins) was a famous actor in his own rite, with his feature-film debut in Citizen Kane as Kane’s political rival. Really missed him in the Perry Mason show after he passed away in 1965.
Love the Perry Mason show. Great cast!!
I loved Perry Mason and Della.
@Cynthia Tucker, be sure to check out their stories from different writers on Perry Mason fanfiction.com.,where you'll find over 300 stories. They're very entertaining. I look forward to each new one.
I still watch this every morning to this day.
@Terry King, I do also, every morning and every night!
Great people. Perry Mason along with Paul Drake has made me dress up more when about town.
They really did look cool!
I remember seeing Perry Mason late night and I saw on the bottom of the tv series the announcement the station made of the passing away of Della Street (Barbara Hale), I was in tears , I started collecting dvd of the tv series, but I still see it on tv , I believe that her son is still living , he also joined part of the crew as the young detective in the series for a while . Love ❤️ this show never will get tired of watching RIP Dear Barbara and Perry 😞❤️👍👍👍
Yes, Diana, I thought she was fantastic. Her son's name is William Katt. He played the part of Paul Drake's son in the TV movies. He left when he got an offer to do a show of his own.
Love these OLD shows ..... bring them BACK ♡》♡》♡》
i remember when i was around 12 watching Perry Mason. i loved the show - just loved it. i had a crush on Paul Drake - sigh :) (William Hopper - Hedda's son) one thing though, that i will never forget. the actor who played Hamilton Berger (William Talman) got lung cancer and he made a commercial about how it happened to him because of smoking. Don't smoke, he said. and i never did. he was an amazing person. i don't care about any of their private lives - i just cared that Perry Mason was a wonderful show and the actors were terrific as was the writing. always a treat what was going to happen.
My favorite Perry-Della scene was when Della asked to borrow $20,000, no questions asked, and Perry immediately wrote her a check.
My favorite scene was at the end of one of the movies when he gave her some pearls and said, " one of these days we"ll go to where these grew up" !!💞💞💞
Thats a real friend and a wonderful boss. It was a respect between two people
What episode was it
ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTELY
That was a true friend and a wonderful boss
@Randy Galvez I heard that too.... I believe it because of the caring spirt that he gave to is show and his friends
Superb!
My favorite show
Mr. mcFadden, I grew up in Cloverdale, my Mom was the real estate agent that sold Asti, california to Pat Paulsen, and we used to pass Mr. Burr and Mr. Benevidez's orchid farm on Dutcher Creek Rd on our way back to our house on Dry Creek Rd. 😊😊! My family would either have brunch or dinner at Catelli's the Rex on Sundays in Geyserville. Thank you for showing the Very Gritty Perry Mason of the first two seasons. Folks don't really know how adult those season were. 🎉❤🎉❤😊. Thanks.
Thank you...I remember how enthusiastic he was when he told me they were putting their two properties together. At the time they were thinking of one big ranch to grow orchards, fruit trees, etc. The winery idea came a little later.
Loved Perry Mason still watch the Series.
A trully memorable love story as well as a good friendship,better than romeo and juliet,this was an everlasting love story that was a joy to watch pkus they talked and really enjoyed each others company too!!!!!!😍
I loved watching their reactions to each other. Their affection always came through on the show.
Perry Mason was one of the shows I begged permission to stay up late for when I was a kid. I think it was either before or after the Jackie Gleason show. Of course, the fact that Burr was homosexual doesn't taint his affectionate comradeship with Ms. Street, it makes it, to me, all the more charming. The original Perry Mason series started production in the year before I was born - and to this day, I rarely miss an episode, either at 9:00 AM or 11:30 PM.
Thanks for the comment, Jess. I was a kid when the show went on in '57, but my parents watched it every week and it was something we could all do together. Raymond and Barbara were great.
I've been watching PM a lot lately since nothing much else is on. They had a great easy, flirty relationship that was fun to watch.
These are two wonderful people.
Barbara was a Beautiful, Classy lady
I loved that show. Wow this took me back.
God bless.
It wouldn't be difficult to imagine Hamilton Burger or lieutenant tragg pulling Perry off to the side and asking him, " why don't you just marry her?! "
Or at least ask Perry, “Hey, are you banging your secretary?”
For sure..... I bet it was fun working with those people and I bet they were friends outside the studio
Because deep inside they knew he was gay
Ray was gay, but that wasn't the reason why they did not pursue the relationship any further. Barbara Hale was married at the time, raising a young son, William Katt. She claims that she didn't want the young boy confused about her marriage and her role on TV... it wasn't until the TV movies many years later that on the screen at least, they got involved...
Thank you! Love Perry Mason.
Loved your vid. My mother & I watched Perry Mason on TBS at noon for years before her death. We loved the show.
I loved this show! When I was a girl I dreamed of growing up to be Della Street ♥️
My Mom loved Perry Mason ! When I found out he was gay and told her, she said she didn’t believe it.
He was not He love Della
@Randy Galvez ignorant morons that's why you vote for Trump!
@@strafrag1 Shut your filthy mouth, it always takes one moron to bring politics into something that has nothing to do with it.
The Perry Mason books show a very healthy romantic relationship between Perry and Della Street. Let's not confuse the actors with the characters they portray. I do appreciate, however, that Barbara Hale, happily married, and Raymond Burr were dear friends in real life.
Thanks for posting. It brought a smile to my face remembering my grandmother who studied law but never practiced and never missed an episode. She'd clinch an unlit Parliament cigarette between her teeth and prided herself in correctly guessing who was guilty 9 out of 10 times.
Many people seem to confuse the actors with the role they were playing. I was a young girl in 1959 when this series debuted. It was my favorite show and even at 11 years old I even understood the special relationship between the 2.
There was always the hint of romance and in my young mind I kept hoping they would have a real romance. Their subtle dance around the possibility of romance added to the magic that made this show so great.
No one could have portrayed Mason better than Raymond Burr. Still one of my favorites to this day.
So very well put, Joanne. We were about the same age watching the show, and I too remember the hint of romance. That air of "will they or won't they" just added to the show's appeal. Of course, in real life, Raymond and Barbara really did have a super-affection for each other, going back to the RKO days.
@@baileyellard1 thank you for your response. I feel fortunate that while I was growing up I had access to such a quality show that no one had to worry about being inappropriate. Actually it raised the bar a bit for my analytical thinking from following clues, and trying to work the case along with Mason.
Raymond Burr was at his best in this role, often conveying so much with just a glance or the subtle smile in his eyes.
He and Barbara Hale were perfectly cast in their roles.
@@joanneloesner1264 "The subtle smile in his eyes" is such a perfect way to put it, Joanne. Used to love it when he looked at Barbara that way!
@@baileyellard1 Me too !! 😉
Are you the author of the book referred to at the beginning of the video ??
@@joanneloesner1264 Yes, Joanne.
Barbara was no spring chicken when Perry Mason first aired, she was 35. Still, she was a heartthrob and could compete head-on with actresses nearly half her age as far as looks. Sophisticated, classy lady.
She really was one good looking woman and looked younger than her years on the show. And there were many actresses who appeared on the show who WERE half Barbara's age, but they were no match for her. As you say, CLASSY!
It is my opinion that Ms. Barbara Hale was as pretty a woman as you could see, especially in the face. I think she resembled Olivia Dehavilland, Vivian Leigh, and Susan Hayward, or they resembled her, however you want to say it. Drop dead gorgeous.
She was attractive but Barbara Eden as seen on Andy Griffith was truly a Goddess.Despite being the dumbest episode ever made I watch every rerun just to see her.Why put a manicurist in a Barber Shop with a Beauty Parlor close by ?
@@donnienicholson6062 I wouldn't argue with that. Barbara Eden had her own look, and didn't resemble anybody, that I can think of. When she was walking down the sidewalk, back to the camera, in that episode. Need I say more?
BFFs Not "dating" as Raymond Burr was an "out" homosexual. I watch this show every day! I love classic Perry. Perry was a workaholic.
When Barbara Hale was asked to reprise her role as Della Street in the 1980's, she said yes on one condition: That Raymond Burr would co-star as Perry Mason. William Hopper was deceased, so Barbara's real-life son took over.
Oh yes, i remember that. i loved that kid! he also played Pippin at one point. perfect for the part. . .
@@feralbluee He was also the star of the TV series " THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO" Had the curly reddish hair like his dad, Bill Williams, (aka Kit Carson) who also was cast in the Perry Mason series at least twice.
Yeah, Perry, Della and Paul Drake were a particularly enjoyable trio together on screen. And as someone mentioned William Katt was Barbara's son. His father was Bill Williams. ( Kit Carson ) One of the things I like about shows of the period is seeing actors and actresses in their earlier roles. I remember for instance lovely Ellen Burstyn in an episode when she was still Ellen Mcrae. The fifties was also a great period for womens' fashion and it is particularly noticeable in this show.
I love watching the shows and going back, and I remember watching Kit Carson.
They were cute together.
1:41 cracks me up thinking of "Pretty Woman"--You're on my FAX.....well that's one I haven't been on yet.
I enjoy the show because I forget they are Raymond Burr and Barbara Hale and let them be Perry Mason and Della Street. Then nothing gets in my way of thinking when they arrive at the office in the morning. I bet she stayed over at his place last night.
one last show Perry kiss Dells My mom and I loved that. He done long time agon
Barbara Hale live to be 94 , I child. Married 46 years to the same guy
She had more than one child. I saw a video of her husband with their daughter, and of course the greatest American hero is her son.
sandyk067 yes she had 3 children I just googled her thanks for the correction 🙏
Hey! What about private detective Paul Drake? Every time he laid eyes on Della his first words were "hello beautiful". Yeah he looked like a player. Glad Della had eyes only for Perry.
Yes, Janice. I wish I could remember the name of an episode where Paul comes through the door, and before he can say anything, Della says to him, "Hi, beautiful!"
@@baileyellard1 If I see that episode, I'll let you know! I did not know Della reversed Paul's line to him. I'll watch for that, now showing in the 8am (CT) hour on MeTV, now in the 4th season (1960-61).

Thank you, David. I'm so glad you liked the book and those memories you mentioned are the reason I wrote it!
I became a legal assistant because of Della Street
The Della Street character influenced me to become a legal secretary. Taking shorthand and transcribing my notes was my favorite part of the job.
However it seems that the actors on that show really cared about each other and yes they were just acting however if you really care about each other it shows. A W
Yes, Janice, and that is exactly what Raymond told me. You can hear him talk about the feeling of family on the show on my RUclips video "Remembering Perry Mason with Raymond Burr."
@@baileyellard1 the
Since I was a little girl I always admire Barbara Hale I wanted to be just like her
They were perfect TV lovers .what a chemistry
True, there was no way to mistake the chemistry.
Erle Stanley Gardner's Perry and Della were much closer than the show implied. Of course his Mason was much more daring too. In the books he tiptoed along the very edges of the law occasionally stepping slightly over the line, even creating false evidence from time to time.
Great! My husband and Is not a attorny nor am I a paralegal. However we will go back and for and try to solve mysteries of all sorts. Our family calls us Perry Mason and Della Street.
Love it ... my wife and I do the same thing!
Thy made a gooood pair
Raymond Burr had beautiful blue eyes
I always hoped Perry and Della would get married.🥰
I think everyone did, Maria. And you'd be surprised, a lot of people thought Perry and Della WERE married, just because they were together so much on the show!
I'm so glad Perry got away from Godzilla....and Barbra was hot
So true...it couldn't have been easy watching Godzilla stomping all over Tokyo Bay!
Lol
He told her in 1957 he was gay and for her to keep it a secret. She did till years after his death and the world already knew.
In season 1, Della convinced Perry to travel by ship = to spend time together.
Yes, one of my favorite scenes. Most secretaries don't go on cruises with their boss!❤
good show
I AGREE WITH TERI. RAYMOND BURR WAS GAY & IN A RELATIONSHIP. BARBARA HALE WAS HAPPILY MARRIED TO AN ACTOR WHO APPEARED ON THE SHOW NUMEROUS TIMES!
@silverbird58 No, not Hopalong Cassiday. That was William Boyd. Barbara's husband was Bill Williams (screen name) and he did westerns. I think his show was Kit Carson, but I can be mistaken.
@@maryoliver8596 Yes Mary, the show was Kit Carson and was on from 1951 until 1959. And Bill Williams was his screen name. His real name was William Katt and it was his son who co-starred in the Perry Mason TV movies.
I don't know why everyone is bringing up the actor's private lives. This is about Perry Mason and Della Street, not Raymond Bur and Barbara Hale.
@Felix Ray Lots of gay men (myself included) have straight female best friends.
It's a tease, to get you to watch the video, which was actually very heartwarming; I'm glad I watched it. And, yes, I do know that Raymond Burr was gay...but that has nothing to do with the love they felt for each other; the true love of friendship...so important in this life and it has nothing to do with sexuality. It's funny, but I never realized just how good looking a man he was until I watched these clips! Then again, I was a kid when the show originally aired.
@@TisEyerish1 I was a kid when the show originally aired too, so wasn't paying much attention to how beautiful Barbara was. But they were both very good looking. If you see color shots of Raymond when he was young, he had the most amazing blue eyes. And Barbara looks beautiful in color too.
@@baileyellard1 Yes, she was a beautiful lady. I've never seen color shots of him in his youth and assumed his eyes were brown, for some odd reason. I'll have to google images of him in his youth :)
@ Same here!
I love the show. ❤❤❤❤❤ I said why didn't they get married.? They would have made a sweet couple.
They really were perfect together!
Mr. McFadden, the name of an episode where Paul comes through the door, and before he can say anything, Della says to him, "Hi, beautiful!" is the end clip for Season 2, Episode 27, TCOT Deadly Toy. I am a Perry Mason fan and have enjoyed your books on Perry Mason.....A Love Story; Barbara Hale, Destined to be Della and Remembering Perry Mason with Raymond Burr. Thank you.
Thanks Beverly. I absolutely love that part where Della turns the tables. Here's a very brief clip of several "Hi Beautifuls" from Paul, ending with Della from "Deadly Toy!" ruclips.net/video/Wt7EZN5A6xg/видео.html
Every night, 10:30, hubby and I double date with Perry and Della on MeTV! 💞
People then didn’t know that he was gay, and in those days it would have mattered. They were good friends, no romance in real life..
I have a friend who met him over in Korea, he did not want to get too close to him! He drove him around for 2 or three days, while in Service!
❤❤❤They We’re Good Friends ❤❤❤
Yes, most folks don't realize that Raymond and Barbara had met each other back in the forties at RKO!
Love Perry Mason
Of course they loved each other.
I was surprised when I talked with Raymond years ago and he told me he and Barbara had originally met way before Perry Mason, when they were both working at RKO!
Nice.
