A few weeks ago, Kathy Bates said she plans on retiring when Matloxk ends. Well, today, she found out she can’t retire until at least the spring of 2026. That is because CBS picked up the legal drama for a second season after just two airings.
“This reconceived MATLOCK was devised by Jennie Snyder Urman with a brilliant surprise plot twist, and we knew we had something very special the moment we saw the first episode brought to life by the incredibly talented Kathy Bates,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “The audience reception and critical acclaim for it has been overwhelming. We can’t wait to get started on a second season.”
