Matlock was making headlines for Season 2 even before it premiered in the 2025 TV schedule, and not for a good reason. Series regular David Del Rio, who played Billy in the first season, was fired following sexual assault allegations and an investigation from co-star Leah Lewis. The show was already well into filming the second season at the time, so Billy has been part of the episodes so far this fall. That said, CBS' schedule starting on November 20 has me wondering if last week's episode was the last time that viewers will see Billy.
