Procedural legal drama fans rejoice! The reboot of Matlock will get a second season. The CBS series performed so well that it became the first renewal announced by the network in 2024, after only the first few episodes had aired.The first iteration of the series was created by Dean Hargrove and first premiered in 1986. It starred Andy Griffith as the protagonist, a criminal defense attorney named Ben Matlock. In the universe of the reboot, things get a bit meta. The plot centers on Madeline Kingston, played by Kathy Bates, who assumes the identity of lawyer Matty Matlock in order to get justice for her daughter Ellie who died due to the opioid epidemic. Madeline is a fan of the old series and her alias is an homage to it. As “Matty” Madeline joins Jacobson Moore, the law firm she blames for her daughter’s death and solves other cases along the way.
When will Matlock season 2 be released?
The first eight episodes of season 1 aired from October through December 2024. The midseason premiere aired in January of 2025.
