"Matlock", an American legal drama TV series, revolves around the life of Ben Matlock, a criminal defense attorney portrayed by Andy Griffith. The show was produced by multiple companies and aired on NBC from 1986 to 1992 before moving to ABC for its remaining seasons until 1995. Inspired by the format of "Perry Mason" on CBS, the series follows Matlock's tireless pursuit of justice as he skillfully identifies wrongdoers and brings them to light through intense courtroom scenes. A distinct feature that sets this show apart is the fact that while Matlock usually secures acquittals for his clients at trial, rather than during pretrial hearings like Mason did, making each episode a thrilling battle of wits in the courtroom."
