Matlock is on the verge of returning to the 2026 TV schedule after a few weeks off, meaning that fans will finally find out what happens next after the cliffhanger reveal of Shae (Yael Grobglas) being arrested. The charge was that she’d bribed a juror on the case that Matty (Kathy Bates) and Olympia (Skye P. Marshall) had been working, and she was marched out of Jacobson Moore in handcuffs. The stars spoke with CinemaBlend about the first episode back, and what Shae’s arrest means for the whole team.
The new episode on April 2 is called “The Cavalry Isn’t Coming,” which really doesn’t bode well for the idea of everybody at Jacobson Moore rising up in support of Shae. The logline from CBS does preview that Matty will be on Shae’s side, so it seems that Olympia’s team won’t turn on the jury consultant. So, how much faith does Olympia have in Shae that she’s innocent?
