Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Naberrie218 I love Matlock, although I'm told it's not very common for people in my age group. They really don't make shows like this anymore. There is something about it that is so comforting, and feels so soothing. I especially love to watch the episodes on a cold winter day. Andy Griffith is perfect in this role, and the setting/scenery and story lines are done very well. One thing I disliked though is that Kene Holliday was fired from the show due to personal problems he had back then, and that's a real big shame. Although Clarence Gilyard was pretty good in his role, I just liked the Tyler character that Holliday played a lot more. He was charming and sophisticated, and a lot of his scenes were so clever. I really wish Mr. Holliday had remained on the show. But besides that, the show was pretty much perfect. The last season was not as good as all the previous ones, but it was still watchable and enjoyable.

OllieSuave-007 This is one of the all-time popular mystery dramas, starring Andy Griffith as defense attorney Ben Matlock, whom, and his associates, defend his clients by finding the real perpetrator of the crime.As Ben Matlock, Griffith displays much wit and intellect while defending his clients, while at the same time trying to track down the real criminal. This plot device gave the series a unique twist and kept the show surprising from start to finish. The show also got intense at times with all the back and forth proceedings and finger-pointing during the courtroom scenes. The episodes were written with much intrigue and suspense, with a well-acted cast of characters and guest stars to boot. The opening theme music is very catchy and well-suited for the show's atmosphere, and I especially enjoyed seeing the many co-stars that have starred along side Griffith during the show's run, including Linda Purl, Brynn Thayer, Clarence Gilyard Jr. and Daniel Roebuck. Definitely one of the best shows of the 80s and 90s! Grade A

rpzowie Don't get me wrong. I like Andy Griffith. Courtroom shows, while relatively unrealistic as they are, are among my favorites to watch. Matlock, though, just didn't really do it for me. I like to be surprised, shocked and angered when I watch courtroom shows. With Matlock (at least in the many episodes I've seen), the same formula is followed: Matlock and his team do their own investigating and then gets the real killer on the stand, where he cross-examines them into admitting they were guilty. This is boring and predictable. At least in Law and Order there are many times when the guilty go free or unpunished.

Brian Washington Much like Perry Mason, Ben Matlock was a lawyer that never lost and that's where the similarities end. The thing I love about the character of Ben Matlock is that unlike the cool and suave Perry Mason, Ben was hot-headed and cursed like a sailor, but beneath that gruff exterior was a heart of gold. Ben pretty much was just like an average guy, while Perry Mason was the cool, suave and sophisticated barrister. Also, this show pretty much had a sense of humor about it that "Perry Mason" didn't have and this gives "Matlock" an edge.
