The legal drama will return for a second season.
October 22, 2024
CBS announced today that Matlock has been renewed for Season 2. The early pickup comes just two episodes into the legal drama's freshman run. Since its September premiere, the show has garnered high praise from both critics and viewers alike.
"This reconceived Matlock was devised by Jennie Snyder Urman with a brilliant surprise plot twist, and we knew we had something very special the moment we saw the first episode brought to life by the incredibly talented Kathy Bates," said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. "The audience reception and critical acclaim for it has been overwhelming. We can't wait to get started on a second season."
Inspired by the classic television series of the same name, the series follows brilliant septuagenarian Madeline Matlock, who has rejoined the workforce after achieving success in her younger years. At her new prestigious law firm, she uses her unassuming demeanor and wily tactics to win cases and expose corruption from within.

I think this show sucks. I also like Kathy Bates. This is just lame, 2 episodes in. Amy Reisenbach is such a phony bitch. Cramming retread shows down our throats and then telling all of us how excited she is for season 2. After 2 episodes. Fire Amy Reisenbach immediately. She would not know a good show if it crawled up her ass and died. Do not even get me going on her stupid phony smile.

Canceling Blue Bloods for this show is astonishing moronic. This show is silly. Kathy Bates is a fine actress. Why did she want to do this crap? CBS is trying to keep their senior citizen fanbase. One episode and I am done. P.S. Idiotic plot twist at end of episode.

Enjoy the show and the twist at the end of the first episode. Very likable characters except not vibing with her boss. Just not a fan nor her storyline so far.

So far, I'm finding it interesting/entertaining. Generally, it's good. Time will tell if it holds my interest. I could see me getting bored with it later, but not yet.
