Exciting news for fans of the classic Matlock series as a reboot/sequel with the same name is set to premiere September 22 on CBS. The legal drama originally sees criminal defense lawyer Ben Matlock (Andy Griffith) taking perpetrators down in dramatic court scenes, while the reboot sees Madeline Matlock (Kathy Bates) jump back into the workforce as a lawyer where she enjoyed success in her younger years. And no, Kathy is not related to Ben.
