Entertainment Now | February 25 - March 3, 2023 Sunday morning | 7 By Michelle Rose TV Media Lawyering up: Kathy Bates ("Misery," 1990) as Matlock? That's what CBS is working on. The network recently ordered two drama pilots — its first for the 2023-24 season — that would potentially add two al- ready famous attorneys to its cur- rent roster: one of them is the "Good Fight" spinoff "Elsbeth," starring Carrie Preston; and the other is a reboot of "Matlock," the Andy Griffith-led procedural that originally aired on NBC (1986-1992) and ABC (1992- 1995). Bates, an award-winning film and television veteran whose ca- reer spans more than five de- cades, has been tapped to play the lead role of Madeline Matlock in what promises to be a modern take on the original series, which still lives on in syndication. If you're wondering why CBS would want to revive a show that aired on two network rivals, the series is owned by Viacom Pro- ductions and the rights reverted to parent company Paramount Global following the 2019 re- merger of CBS Corporation and Viacom. CBS was also the home of the spinoff series "Jake and the Fat- man," which was based on a character from a two-part episode of "Matlock" and ran for eight seasons (1987-1992). That series spawned another spinoff, the Dick Van Dyke-led "Diagnosis: Mur- der" (1991-2002), which provided an explanation for Matlock's (Griffith) penchant for eating hot dogs: the famously thrifty defense attorney lost his savings after in- vesting in 8-track tapes (based on advice given to him by Van Dyke's character, Dr. Mark Sloan), forcing him to get by on hot dogs. The new "Matlock" is helmed by "Jane the Virgin" creator Jen- nie Snyder Urman. Here's how CBS is officially describing it: "Af- ter achieving success in her younger years, the brilliant septu- agenarian Madeline Matlock (Bates) rejoins the workforce at a prestigious law firm where she uses her unassuming demeanor and wily tactics to win cases and expose corruption from within." As for "Elsbeth," that pilot hails from "The Good Wife" and "The Good Fight" creators Robert and Michelle King. It marks Preston's return to the role of attorney Els- beth Tascioni (according to Dead- line), who heads to New York, where she uses her observational skills to help corner criminals alongside the NYPD. The two pilots would potential- 02/26 7 AM 7:30 8 AM 8:30 9 AM 9:30 10 AM 10:30 11 AM 11:30 12 PM 12:30 S1 S2 WTTV 4 ITOWN Church Griffith Inside Indiana IN Focus CBS News Sunday Morning (N) Face the Nation (N) Paid Programming Basketball Illinois at Ohio State (L) (N) 4 4 WRTV 6 In Touch With Dr. Charles Stanley (N) Good Morning America (N) This Week (N) Joel Osteen In Touch With Dr. Charles Stanley (N) Homes Hearts of (N) NBA (N) 6 6 @ WPTA Good Morning America (N) ABC21 News Sunday Morning (N) This Week (N) C21 Brad Granite Ridge Inside Indiana Game Time (N) Vets-Pets (N) NBA (N) WISH 7 News 8 Daybreak at 7AM (N) News 8 Daybreak at 8AM (N) News 8 Day (N) Politics (N) Business Equity & Opportunities (N) Pet Vet Tails of Valor Magnum P.I. 8 8 H WLFI 8 News18 This Morning Weekend (N) CBS News Sunday Morning (N) Face the Nation (N) Game Time (N) Basketball Illinois at Ohio State (L) (N) D WTHR 12 13Sunrise Weekend at 7am (N) Sunday Today With Willie Geist (N) 13Sunrise Weekend at 9am (N) Meet the Press (N) The Retirement Charles Stanley (N) Paid Programming Paid Programming 13 13 O WFYI 20 Work It (N) Cyberchase WordGirl Arthur The Letter: A Message for Our Earth Ken Burns: The National Parks 20 20 C WNDY 10 Hearts of Heroes oh baby!
