Todd Blanche could never be a Perry Mason.
It may appear there is a Perry Mason moment but we don't see it first hand. But when reviewed and exhibited again it spoofs. I expect the prosecutors are more qualified than those in the OJ case.
In regards to the one minute thirty six seconds phone call. Andrew Weissmann brought up the ninety second tape Michael Cohen made. Andrew even suggested prosecution could count out ninety six seconds out to the jury.

"If the glove don't fit, you must acquit."
Almost like that trial was tailor-made for TV.
