I love Raymond Burr, a great man, a fantastic actor, he's given us hundreds of hours of on screen entertainment to last forever. I still watch Perry Mason to this day and I love every episode. I loved watching Dave trying to make stupid jokes and Raymond having none of it and shutting him down. It was apparent Dave was in awe of this great man and incredible actor. Raymond Burr will do down in history as one of the greatest actors of all time. After I finish this comment I'm going back to watching season 7 of Perry Mason. Rest in peace Raymond, God has you now.

I believe time has shown that Letterman is bright and knowledgeable and could sometimes assume a juvenile persona for comedic effect, as he's doing here. It's my opinion that Burr picked up on that and is playing it completely deadpan in his responses for a humorous contrast.

This is one of the most remarkable interviews I've seen. Letterman is smart but trying to crack wise for the laughs, Burr is smart and thoughtful, always answering seriously and respectfully. Burr never becomes impatient. I never knew that Burr wanted a full movie treatment of a Perry Mason story during the original television run. He might have been pleased that this modern era gave the story a full-season series, and now a second.

@museack: I'm still confounded as to how - in 2019 - is the topic of someone's sexuality still conversation. The comment made was "He was a very attractive man." There was a period at the end of the sentence. Inquiring minds would like to know WHY his sexuality was then a natural (to you) follow-up.

I loved him.Especially in his early to mid 60's.Imagine my surprise when,while living in San Francisco I met a man in a bar in the Casto that looked like just like him.Big.Burly.And. Silver hair,beard and blue eyes to melt in.I spent time with him on and off for several months.One afternoon he was in The Lone Star in SF. It was mid afternoon and nobody was in the place.When in came Robert Benavides.He had some wine to leave as samples from their winery.He ended up taking to my friend for obvious reasons. Along with the fact he was really sweet.He left a card with him and told him to let him know if he ever wanted to go to the vineyard for a tour. A few weeks later, we did just that.He told us to come up a couple days later when he had time to spend with us. He had a bottle of wine with us and showed us around. It was so strange being in the house knowing he and so many friends of his had been in the same room we were in. Robert was very sweet to. We had a nice time. I wish I had thought to bring a camera.

Tragg and Hamilton Burger!!!

Love his twinkling blue eyes with such intelligence in them. His early career as a heavy in film noir are my favorites of his wonderful acting jobs. And before he gained all that weight, he was gorgeous when he was young, great big man with huge shoulders and that VOICE! (And don’t forget that thick black hair!) I’ve read he had a huge heart and adopted something like 26 orphans. Natives I think. Anyway, just a great guy all around! So sad he had to hide his sexuality back then to keep working. I hope that kind of crap is finally over! We, the AUDIENCE don’t give a shit who you sleep with! Just do your job professionally and we’ll love you like we loved Raymond and Rock!

Regarding Raymond Burr's sense of humour, it's sometimes forgotten that he was Canadian, born in British Columbia, and evidently close to his family all his life. Typically Canadian, his humour could be very dry, self-deprecating, ironic, satiric, and extremely witty in both languages. It's on a level completely different from that of Mr Letterman.

that's hilarious how Dave mistakingly called him Perry at the end of the interview then catches himself. that is actually in a way the best compliment Dave could ever give him because his character has been so deeply embedded in the American consciousness that you almost believe that he is Perry Mason and not Raymond Burr so that was a forgivable situation but how many times has that actually happened during interviews with any other actor I can't think of one although I can picture that happening to James Garner who played Jim Rockford in The Rockford Files he was another really tremendous actor that was so comfortable in his role that it is hard to see him and not just think of him as Jim Rockford. a funny aside about that when Ben Affleck was asked how it was to be married to the daughter of James Garner he's simply stated "how cool is it to have Jim Rockford as a father-in-law" LOL RIP to both of these icons

Raymond wasn't entirely accurate that he and Barbara were the only cast members returning.....Richard Anderson had made a few separate appearances before joining the cast in the police role Steve Drumm for the last 1965-66 season and came back for "Perry Mason Returns" but as a completely new character, as did Lee Miller who had played Sgt. Brice in numerous appearances in the original series and was also Burr's stand-in. It was very common for actors to make repeat visits as different characters, even in the 90s' Perry Mason movies, such as Charles Macaulay playing not only both a judge and a DA, but two different DA characters!

A shame he left at 76. Someone he loved,, a winery to dabble in and an occasional well paying jjob in a role he needed no prep for Not a bad life for one's sunset years.

Always love to see the late great Mr Burr but this isn't a very good interview in regards to questions asked. Most of it was about Mr Burr's property in Fiji when he was there to promote his upcoming NBC made for TV movie. The charm of Mr Letterman has always escaped me. I never did care for him. He never seemed to be prepared much in regards to info about his guests. And his style of interviewing to me was usually lackluster. But clearly millions of folk loved his show & style because he had a long TV hosting career before his retirement. Oh well...to each his own, as they say. He seems to be having a happy retirement and I'm happy for him !

He was often cast as the villain role before becoming Perry Mason. He loved Fiji and I believe he owned an island there ?

What a weak interview by Letterman, ugh!! He tried too hard to find a different angle than Mason and Ironside and focused too hard on the Fiji island and geography. His attempts at humor were feeble. I though Burr would have gotten applause if he had said something like, "I didn't realize I was asked to be here to give a lesson in geography." This was a snoozer of an interview, and it certainly was no fault of Burr's.

You can sense some awkwardness from Burr when Letterman asked who from the original cast would be on the new Perry Mason because all but Barbara Hale had long passed away.

I read where Godzilla 1985 was going to be written as a comedy for America but Burr took Godzilla’s nuclear metaphor seriously and talked the filmmakers out of it. I have no doubt he was funny when needed be but he took his profession seriously and he did not seem to really appreciate and react to David’s comments here though he sat through the interview like a good sport, but I’m sure he went home and complained about it. Haha

Spoilers ahead - The Case of the Terrified Typist: His client is found guilty and everyone starts congratulating Ham Burger, but then it is revealed that the defendant is not the same person they thought and is freed. The Case of the Deadly Verdict: The one most people would remember, the client is found guilty at the beginning of the episode, and Perry finds a way to overturn it by the end. The Case of the Witless Witness: Really the only true lasting defeat, Perry is shown losing an appeal of some sort not related to murder, but it does not go into detail and isn't mentioned again.
