From All’s Fair to Matlock, it’s obvious we can’t get enough of watching courtroom dramas in 2025. On October 12, the top-rated CBS series, Matlock, returned to our screens with a second season. The spinoff of the original series that starred Andy Griffith features Kathy Bates as the series protagonist, who, not to mention, has a stacked lineup under her acting belt: Titanic, American Horror Story, and Fried Green Tomatoes, in addition to her Oscar-winning turn in Misery.
