Ben Matlock (Andy Griffith) and his daughter Charlene (Lori Lethin) defend TV journalist Steve Emerson (Steve Inwood) who is accused of killing Linda Coolidge (Katherine Cannon), his ex-wife. Note: It originally aired as a two-hour series premiere during the spring of the 1985–86 network TV season, with subsequent two-part airings. In this TV movie it mentions that Ben's mom is still alive, but in later episodes it says that his mom died when he was young. The courtroom used is also different and larger, and the theme song and credits are uniquely composed to this story, when the full series would use a more upbeat rendition of the theme tune and footage as opposed to still photography with filters on it. Other guest stars: Billy Green Bush as Billy Ray Webber, Lawrence Pressman as Nelson White, Dennis Lipscomb as Les McCall, Richard Newton as Judge Reynolds, Robin Thomas Grossman as Prosecutor Burton Hawkins, Darrell Zwerling as Dr. Farnsworth, Peter White I as Attorney Harvey Ravanelle, James McEachin as Lt. Frank Daniels, Al Ruscio as Ernie "The Tailor" Marzell | |||||
