THE CASE OF THE LADY IN THE LAKE is another typical story in the PERRY MASON series. There are a lot of sub-plots and story ingredients to keep the viewer's interest, but none of them are particularly interesting, and the tame, familiar, TV movie feel of the production means that it lacks edge throughout. This one's about a star tennis player, played by guest star David Hasselhoff in a typically slimy role, accused of murdering his own wife. The ending is fairly surprising and William Katt is on good form in his final series appearance, while old-timer John Ireland has a cameo.
