A previous poster said Mason should have been disbarred over substandard legal work and poor ethics. LOL! He should have been disbarred for improper courtroom procedures and unethical investigations before the series even started! It's obvious Erle Stanley Gardner and the writers of this show never studied law or set foot in a real courtroom. (I don't think the writers ever studied writing - the idiotic dialogue throughout the series supports that theory). Just too funny! (But, Della looks fetching in this one)
