Oh Dear Lord, Matlock is now an old woman

They moved him from small town USA to big city USA, turned him into a woman, and gave him all people of color as his side kicks
They kept her white, tho
Hollywood is brain dead as far as creativity goes. No, theres just brain dead all around.

Not sure how this will play out with the crowd who enjoys Matlock.

Matlock was popular because the audience liked Andy Griffith.

Rooad will give this show all of its rating.

They mention the TV show in the previews. Bates introduces herself and says something like I'm an old attorney named Matlock just like the tv show.

It was just a knockoff of Perry Mason.
I think the new character is his daughter, like they did with the Night Court reboot.

I'm fairly certain that was (mostly) the World War II generation and the few that remain are pushing 100.

They replaced the original Equalizer (Edward Mulhare) with a 53 year-old, overweight black woman. Why would any of this surprise you?

I'm just sick of it
They created a new show about lawyers a few years back and called it Bull. Even featured a white male as the lead. Yet when it comes to women or people of color leads, they want to steal an intellectual property, so they can claim that its an instant hit
They could call it any name, and just let it stand on its own
But they dont

I’m 41 and find nothing wrong with a good Matlock. Wouldn’t give this shite 5 minutes though

Were his sidekicks (investigators) from seasons 1-7 black males?

Yet they want to point to obvious fed plants like Patriot Front & Charlottesville's "You will not replace us" shenanigans... as they actively replace white characters in entertainment's version of revisionist history.

the show wasnt that good and was often very not good, but its hard to not like anything AG does
if they wanted a remake of murder she wrote they should have just done it

The actor is Kathy Bates, after all.

Were the actor not Kathy Bates, I would have similar feelings as a Matlock fan. But this has the potential to be wonderful, she's a wonderful actor and can actually do a southern accent.

Bates is perfect as a Ms. Matlock. Just do the same character as the Office.
