I saw the series on Dutch television when I was in my teens(around 1964). I still remember scenes from the series, the peculiar atmosphere, the locations which were so typical American. The courtroom, where he always won and the facial expression of Mr. Burger and the calls "Objection!"; its all in my memory. That haunting opening melody is echoed in my mind forever. I am searching for CD's but they are hard to get here. Together with Patrick Mc Goohan's "The Prisoner" this was my favorite TV series. These were the golden heydays of television series and after that no particular series did rouse any profound interest with me anymore. When I see the modern German and European series I do not recall them a day later. When experiencing the contrast between modern day television series and the classic ones, I think in those days all looked more natural, directed with more precision, attention for detail and effect. Modern TV making is make-shift, superficial, easy to foretell and with far too much violence and cheap romance. Am I nostalgic?
