Kathy Bates as Matty in 'Matlock'
Christmas is fast approaching and CBS is preparing a feast of holiday programming throughout the season, including plenty of specials involving your favorite shows. Among those celebrating is the freshman legal drama Matlock. Currently six episodes deep, the series has thus far followed the titular Madeline"Matty" Matlock, played by Oscar-winner Kathy Bates, a supposedly widowed older woman who uses her intellect and wily tactics to earn a job at a prestigious law firm.
In addition to the synopsis, a preview image also puts the Matlock team in the holiday spirit. Christmas trees and decorations can be seen in the background as the members of Jacobson Moore stand to greet someone walking into their Christmas party. Olympia, Julian, and Matty lead the group, standing shoulder to shoulder and looking like a tight-knit law office team. More information and promotional material will likely be shared for the special as the release date approaches.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the series boasts an impressive 100% Certified Fresh score, while viewers have given it a less universally positive, but still strong 77%. There still appears to be a lot of runway left for this series too, as Matty fights to keep her perfectly-crafted facade in check and get the answers, and the justice, she's long needed to be at peace.
