When Does ‘Matlock’ Return With New Episodes? ‘Matlock’ Season 2, CBS Schedule Info

It’s never to early to prepare for the future.

CBS has just revealed its schedule for the upcoming 2025-2026 TV season. There will be a mix of returning favorites and new shows, with a special focus on Sunday nights. Viewers can look forward to seeing familiar faces as well as some exciting additions to the lineup.

One of the highlights is the introduction of a new series called The Road, a country music competition created by Taylor Sheridan and Blake Shelton, airing right after Tracker on Sundays at 8:00 p.m. Fans of the hit show Yellowstone will also have something to cheer about with a spinoff titled Y: Marshals, featuring Luke Grimes reprising his role as Kayce Dutton.

While Sundays are shaping up to be must-see TV, many are wondering about Thursdays and the return of the beloved series Matlock. When will the legal drama make its comeback for a second season? Let’s dive into what we already know about this fan-favorite show.

The first season consists of 18 episodes.

Nope. The season finale of Matlock aired Thursday, April 17 on CBS. The show is officially on hiatus.

Yes! Back in October 2024, CBS renewed its freshman hit for a second season.

No official release date has been announced, but it was recently revealed that Matlock returns to Thursday nights this fall on CBS. We expect the second season to debut in September, with our best guess being Thursday, September 25.

The first season of Matlock is available on Paramount+, PlutoTV, Amazon, and CBS.com.

Happy streaming!
