CBS Renews ‘Matlock’ Starring Kathy Bates For A Second Season

Buy Me A Coffee

Grab your popcorn because CBS has already slammed the gavel on a second season of Kathy Bates’ rebooted Matlock—and we’ve barely cracked open the first one. That’s right, two episodes into season one, and they’re already shouting, “We need more Bates!” Talk about confidence! Who knew the key to CBS’ heart was a surprise legal plot twist and a whole lot of Kathy charm?

Amy Reisenbach, the president of CBS Entertainment, spilled the legal beans:
“This Matlock reboot was cooked up by the genius Jennie Snyder Urman, and let me tell you, it came with a plot twist so good, it should be illegal. The moment Kathy Bates hit the courtroom, we knew we had a winner on our hands. Audiences love it, critics love it—basically, it’s more popular than a free lunch in the office break room. Season two, here we come!”

And the cherry on top? Kathy Bates plays Madeline “Matty” Matlock, a sharp-as-a-tack lawyer in her 70s who’s retired but said, “Nah, I’m bored, let’s go fight some legal battles.” So now she’s charming the pants off a posh law firm with her grandma-next-door vibe—but don’t be fooled. Matty’s got courtroom tricks up her sleeve that would make a magician jealous. Oh, and she’s also got some mysterious secret she’s digging into on the side. Drama AND mystery? Yes, please.

The cast is stacked too, with Skye P. Marshall, Jason Ritter, David Del Rio, and Leah Lewis joining the legal circus.

CBS clearly saw two episodes, looked at each other, and said, “Yup, this one’s a keeper.” And honestly, who could blame them? If anyone can make arguing in court look like a cozy Sunday hobby, it’s Kathy Bates.
