This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Courtroom drama fans are about to get a new treat from CBS. The network released today a trailer for Matlock, a new show that stars Kathy Bates as a septuagenarian lawyer who decides she still has the fuel to handle challenging cases at her former law firm. The series will air in the coveted Thursday night slot and is set to premiere this Fall.
The short teaser trailer that CBS unveiled for Matlock introduces us to the title character: Madeline “Matty” Matlock is ready to take down misconceptions that we have of old people, and she also looks and sounds like a witty professional. She states that one of the good things about being in her seventies is that people tend to take her for granted and never assume she could be a cutthroat prosecutor when necessary.
Even though CBS is yet to reveal more details from Matlock, it is safe to assume that the new series will follow the traditional structure that works so well for the network. The case-of-the-week format, which pleases both die-hard fans and casual viewers, and also allows for some form of overarching plot to be touched bit by bit as the season unfolds.
