My family loved Matlock. It was funny ( didn't take itself seriously!), entertaining, and like visiting family...

This is the role he was born to play. From the mid 1970s to the late 1980s he played a lot of bad guy roles (check imdb.com) and this got him back to being a good guy-the type of guy we wanted Andy to be. Even if he could only afford one suit!!!

Really, Betty Ann McDonald Thomas? My mother was a newspaper journalist in North Georgia and I can remember her talking about Bobby Lee Cook. Had no idea that Matlock was based on Cook
