Last episode: The Scam (2)
When Cameron Ivers is killed in a hit and run accident, Matlock decides to take a closer look at Robinson and Reeves, hoping that if he can tie them to Cameron Ivers' death he'll be able to tie them to Scott Aston's death and clear Cliff. After gathering together a number of people Scott Aston had been investigating who were supposed to be dead, Matlock heads to Florida where he finds Chuck Ratner, and Cliff and Jerri learn that the people are all connected because they all turned down the same kind of life insurance. Matlock continues his quest to lose weight by his reunion, but fires his personal trainer.

"A decent show"
Matlock is a TV show that has helped my mother live with her Alzheimer's disease. She is able to focus on episodes when she is unable to talk. This is a request to locate VHS Matlock tapes for her.

"Personal favorite"
Matlock is a mystery show that generally culminates in the courtroom, where the title character, a Southern defense attorney, "sticks" it to the real killer. Andy Griffith, Julie Sommars, Nancy Stafford star, just to name a few.

"Classic"
This show is a personal favorite of mine, as I started watching it with my grandparents at a very young age. It is on constantly on the Hallmark channel in my area so catching reruns is not a problem thankfully. I can't say enough about this show.
