Reboot of TV show "Matlock"

[a kennedy]

21. Matlock has a perfect 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.....

If you thought TV had too many legal dramas as it is, you might want to make room for Matlock, starring Kathy Bates, as it's a good one. At the time of this writing, Matlock has a perfect 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This version of the show is a gender-flipped reboot of the 1980s show of the same name starring Andy Griffith way later in his career. There are currently no ties to the old series, and with Griffith long passed away, there isn't any hope of him showing up for a cameo.

Kathy Bates' version stands alone, and for those who put stock in Rotten Tomatoes scores, it's surely worth a watch. Matlock follows Madeline "Matty" Matlock, played by Bates, as she gets back to work in her 70s. The first episode debuted on September 22, but the second episode doesn't release until October 17. For those who liked what they saw, there's nearly a month-long wait for more. The rest of the season is set to run for 18 episodes, but there's no reason not to suspect more to come if the Tomatometer remains this high and the viewership is there to back it up.
