Because Amiel and Begler have prior experience showrunning early 20th century period television dramas – The Knick (2014-2015) focused on the lives of staff workers and patients at New York’s Knickerbocker Hospital in the early 1900s – they are sure to be adept in handling the premises already established by Fitzgerald and Jones in Perry Mason‘s first season. Additionally, Amiel and Begler’s work on The Knick garnered them a prestigious Peabody Award, so there is no doubt that the pair will continue their success on Perry Mason. With over 8 million viewers in its first season, a star-studded cast, and two fresh voices in the writers’ room, Perry Mason is likely to see an increase in viewership in season 2.
