Matlock
aired initially on NBC (the first 6 seasons) and later on ABC (the
final 3 seasons) from September 1986 through May 1995 and consisted of
195 episodes over 9 seasons.
Andy Griffith starred as Atlanta defense attorney Ben Matlock, known
for charging a $100,000 fee but also known for finding the real culprit
of the crime. His defense team changed frequently during the series
run, but initially included his daughter, also an attorney (played by
Linda Purl) and a private investigator (played by Kene Holliday).
The series was created by Dean Hargrove who was also associated with
the revival of the Perry Mason series, Diagnosis: Murder
(in an episode of which, during its 4th season, Matlock is pulled out
of retirement to defend a colleague of Dr. Mark Sloan), Jake and the
Fatman, the Father Dowling mysteries, and more.
