Matlock

“AMERICA'S GREATEST LAWYER. CASE CLOSED.”

First aired 3 March 1986 Drama / Crime IMDb ↗ · TMDB ↗

Thrifty, folksy and cantankerous, Matlock charges a premium for his services but is worth every penny: This renowned attorney, always clothed in his trademark light-gray suit and driving his signature Ford Crown Victoria, has an uncanny knack for finding overlooked clues and exposing murderers in dramatic courtroom scenes.
