Synopsis of Perry Mason: The Case of the Perjured Parrot
Once again, Perry (Raymond Burr) handles a case way outside his normal "jurisdiction" of Los Angeles, when Ellen Sabin (Jody Lawrence) is charged with murdering her husbnad (Maurice Manson). In fact, Perry proves his client's innocence during the coroner's inquest, in which the key witness is a talking parrot named Casanova (voice supplied by Mel Blanc)! Based on a 1939 novel by Perry Mason creator Erle Stanley Gardner, this is allegedly the first dramatic TV episode to feature a chalk outline of the victim's body at the murder scene, though there may have been a few precedents in various live telecasts. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
