Cast notes
  • Carol Huston joined the cast this season
  • Daniel Roebuck and Carol Huston both missed one episode.
  • It was unclear if the show would be renewed for a tenth season, so the show-runners produced an unofficial final episode, "The Assault", and it aired slightly earlier than the remaining episodes of the season in production order. After it became certain that Season 9 would indeed be the final season of Matlock, "The Assault" would be moved to air after the last aired episode in season 9 in syndication and serve as the effective conclusion to the series.
