When NBC started doing the Perry Mason mystery movies in the 80s, that's how William Katt got the role of Paul Drake--William Hopper (who originated the role) was deceased, and William Katt was Barbara Hale's (Della Street) son.
The quiz named two of the people who subbed for burr while he was injured. but they left out others, such as walter pidgeon, hugh o'brian (wyatt earp) and others.
10/11 WAIT... I know Raymond Burr and William Hopper both auditioned for the roles of Perry and Paul Drake but I didn't know Burr auditioned for the role of Hamilton Burger. What else did he audition for...Dela? ...Gertie? ...Tragg???
originally, william talman, who ended up as hamilton burger, was going to be mason, and burr was going to be burger. But Erle Stanley Gardner himself, who wrote all the mason books, said that burr should be mason.
