After achieving success in her younger years, a brilliant septuagenarian, Madeline Matlock rejoins the work force at a prestigious law firm where she uses her unassuming demeanor and wily tactics to win cases and expose corruption from within.
The trailer was good, many known faces. I'll probably still skip this one, not enough hours in a day...

I have never watched the original Matlock show, so fresh eyes here without any comparison made.
The Pilot was ok, not sure if this will continue as a lighthearted comedy or drama. Guess it will keep being both.
Great seeing Jason Ritter on screen here, great actor and good character.
Too bad Beau Bridges only seems to have a smaller role.
Overall good cast and likeable characters.
Really, no one is going to ask for a CV? ;)
It feels somehow weird that she keeps mentioning the "old" Matlock show. It is not described as a remake, but when it walks like a duck and talks like a duck... - isn't this breaking the fourth wall basically?
The end for the case felt a bit too easy...recorded 911 call from 26 years ago?, very convenient.
The end for Matty...did not see that one coming !
