Maybe you can have your script(s) work like this ... 
$ cat run.sh 
#!/bin/sh

S=p1.pl && p1.pl && S=p2.pl && p2.pl && S=p3.pl && p3.pl

if [ $? = 0 ] 
then
        echo "all completed ok"
else
        echo "$S failed"
fi 

$ cat p?.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl

#exit with no error
exit 0;
#!/usr/bin/perl

# exit with error
exit 1;
#!/usr/bin/perl

#exit with no error
exit 0;

$ ./run.sh 
p2.pl failed
