Along with Perry Mason, Ben Matlock is one of the most recognizable and most popular tv lawyers of all time. Matlock ran on NBC from 1986–1992 and ABC from 1992–1995. It’s that classic show that everyone watched with their grandparents or other older relatives. I grew up loving this show myself, and I’m excited to share my top twenty favorite episodes of the greatest courtroom\detective show of all time with you fellow Matlockians.

But first…. we can’t possibly do this without that iconic and forever catchy theme song\opening credits sequence. That intro and the show go together hand and hand.
