This show has only the most tangential relationship to the original series
Scenario
Follows Madeline Matlock as she re-enters the workforce at a prestigious law firm, where she uses her cunning tactics to win cases and expose wrongdoing. A gender reversal of the original 1986 TV series of the same name, Matlock (1986), starring Andy Griffith in the lead role of criminal defense attorney Ben Matlock.
This would verify identity, address, current license status, disciplinary actions, etc
For legal reasons they had to give Dean Hargrove a “based on the Matlock series” credit. In order for Matlock to be hired by a New York law firm, they would have had to verify the status of her attorney’s license through one of three official mechanisms, each of which is carefully managed by the state.
Remake of Matlock (1986)
If you’re thinking of watching a reimagining of the old Matlock series, you’re in for a big treat. My The writing is spot on and you won’t see the cliffhanger that happens at the end of the first episode; as always, it’s hard to take your eyes off Kathy Bates: she dominates the screen in a way few actresses ever have.
Give her an hour, just an hour
I imagine the second episode takes a sharp turn and goes in a very different direction. I was skeptical when I first heard about the show.
And come on, there’s Beau Bridges
I was so glad I was bored on a Saturday night and decided to watch the show’s premiere. We can go home when he’s in the cast.
