Johnny Carson interview with Raymond Burr

He came to Viet Nam to greet the soldiers. I'll never forget his support for us. He made several additional visits.

I will love Raymond Burr and his incredible acting until the day I die. Damn I love this guy, he has given me hundred of hours of entertainment with Perry Mason, Ironside and many other films. I can't express how much I love this mans acting skills. He was deeply loved man by millions and millions of admirers.

It is December 2022 and I still watch Perry Mason every week night and always enjoy watching him.

One of the best actors ever, and Perry Mason was pure gold. Every show felt and looked like an film noir movie

Started watching Perry Mason as a kid with my mom! I can’t explain how much I love this man’s acting! The way he takes a quick short deep breath before speaking fascinates me! Been watching the reruns for decades! Just watched part of an episode on lunch break today! No lie! I’m ALL in with Raymond Burr! 😎

RIP to both Carson and Burr. They were both fun to watch.

And, "Rear Window, " Raymond Burr's character was extraordinary, along with Jimmy Stewart, an incredible Alfred Hitchcock film.

No actor delivered his lines better than Burr in Perry Mason. His cadence, pace, pronunciation were astoundingly good.

[zanderman]

Raymond Burr worked his ass off for decades. I think he was making a Perry Mason movie at the time he died. Worked right up to the end.

Classic Actor and humble unlike today’s

Ray Collins (Lt. Tragg on Perry Mason), got to the point where his memory was failing him and he strugled at times remembering his lines. He said Raymond Burr stuck by his side and was wonderfully patient and supportive. Apparently Burr did the same for William Talman when he had his legal troubles too. Burr never forgot his friends.
Thankful for METV showing Perry Mason and the other tv gems from the past.

Burr had an awesome screen presence. In the movies back in the 40's, he stole every scene he was in. One of my favorite actors.

Rear Window - best Burr performance, best Hitchcock movie. So riveting. RIP Raymond, Jimmy, Grace, Thelma, Alfred.

[GreatDayEveryone]

He had the best smile. Very real, very warm

Raymond Burr was an extraordinary actor. A true professional. Everything he did, he put 100% into it. It really shows on the screen. I really enjoyed this interview with two men that are at the top in their field.

[MrFishface]

I watch Perry Mason every day I just love the characters and the old cars

[thelmaconnolly]

Raymond Burr one of our finest actors of his time! ❤❤❤❤

You know, maybe I'm the only one, but Raymond Burr as Perry was such a *huge* part of my childhood that seeing footage of interviews, and things makes me miss him terribly . As though he were a favorite Uncle or something. He really did seem so genuine and kind.

I love Raymond Burr, Perry Mason, l enjoy looking at the reruns. The very spirit of him, his voice, comforts you. You feel safe in his presence. Such a beautiful man, with a beautiful talent.
