Is Matty happy about Joey\u2019s arrival, or not so much? And will we see more of Mrs. B in Season 2? Read on to get her testimony about what\u2019s on the docket this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | What are you revealing about what Olympia and Julian decided there in the bank vault? <\/strong><br \/>You will find out very quickly what Olympia and Julian decided in the bank, and what that means for Matty \u2014 for her plan, and for their relationship. I will tease that Matty is not the only person in control this year, and so the fact that Olympia at times has more information than Matty becomes really significant, and you really start to learn more about how Matty as a character acts when she\u2019s not the master of the chess board, when she\u2019s more of a pawn. It\u2019s not a great feeling for her.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Matlock Season 2 Olympia<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | It sounds like the script is a bit flipped this season. Whereas Season 1 was about Matty and her secret agenda\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\u2026 Season 2 is about Olympia and how information is power, who has how much when, and what the other character does in response. At the beginning, Matty definitely knows less than Olympia, and that\u2019s a different place for characters to start in in the second season. I think that creates a lot more conflict and suspense and surprises as we unfurl our storytelling.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | But at the end of the day \u2014 and I imagine this is hugely important to you \u2014 it\u2019s going to feel like the same show, yes? <\/strong><br \/>It\u2019s the same show, definitely, in that you will be surprised, in that Matty will continue to surprise us. Also, Olympia will surprise us. It\u2019s about their relationship, it\u2019s about their friendship, and it\u2019s also about the cases of the week and how they become increasingly important to Matty as she has really found a place for herself in the world of this law firm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | Is there still a sort of a \u201cticking clock\u201d element as in Season 1? <\/strong><br \/>Yes, there\u2019s a ticking clock, and it becomes increasingly complicated as we go forward.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | Justina Machado is joining the cast. What can you say about who she\u2019s playing? <\/strong><br \/>She is playing Senior\u2019s fourth ex-wife, Eva, and after her, he decided he would never, ever date a smart woman again. She is his least favorite of the ex-wives. They did not have any children together, but they did work together.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | It sounds like she could be an asset to somebody. <\/strong><br \/>Could be an asset, or could be a liability.

There are fun guest appearances in great cases of the week. You\u2019re going to see Shae [played by Yael Grobglas] come back. I hope to introduce more family members of our team so that you can get to know the characters more deeply and know where they came from so you understand who they are now. Marnie Carpenter, who played Matty and Edwin\u2019s daughter, comes back in some pivotal flashback episodes as well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | What does the arrival of Alfie\u2019s possible father, Joey, add to the mix? If Matty had her druthers, would this guy have shown up when he did? <\/strong><br \/>No, Matty wishes at the beginning that this guy did not show up. He is the thing that makes her life the least controllable at this moment because he threatens the thing that is the most dear to her, which is her grandson and their relationship. So if this man is the father or if we meet the father, suddenly the thing that she holds most dear, which is her relationship with her grandson, becomes out of her hands a bit, too. It takes her back to a lot of the trauma that she experienced with her daughter as well. It also reframes that trauma, ultimately, as we get into that story.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | For preview purposes, are you saying if Billy and Claudia are jumping into parenthood or not?<\/strong><br \/>I\u2019m saying that we will know the answer to that in the first episode back.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Matlock Season 2 Sarah\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"651\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/MJefawQXqiFBMWF71BWY.g--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTY1MTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/tvline.com\/0e9c624acce0acd82853fc0a5a661420\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Matlock Season 2 Sarah<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>TVLINE | What\u2019s ahead for Sarah, with regards to Simone snooping around how she got her first client?<\/strong><br \/>Sarah\u2019s ambitions are going to run into reality, and she is going to be put in difficult positions as a result of them.
