Matlock vs. Jessica Fletcher
Matlock
- Ben Matlock is a VERY expensive criminal defense attorney who charges a $100,000 to take a case. Fortunately, he's worth every penny as he and his associates defend his clients by finding the REAL killer.
- Premiering in 1986, the TV series "Matlock" enjoyed a successful run until the year 1995
- Ben Matlock is a Georgia bred, Harvard educated defense attorney
- He is cantankerous and gruff and often uses colorful language, but beneath it all he has a heart of gold
- Ben's girlfriend is associate D.A. Julie March and his contact on the Atlanta police is Lt. Bob Brooks.
Jessica Fletcher
- Former substitute English teacher and famed mystery writer Jessica Fletcher has a gift for solving mysteries
- Sometimes, early in the series, Jessica would only narrate the episode, which would be a dramatization of one of her novels. In later seasons, Jessica moved to New York City to be closer to her publisher and also closer to crime.
- Jessica never drove a car. She always rode her bicycle or took a cab
- Premiered in 1984 and ended in 1996
- Jessica's late husband Frank was a bomber pilot in Korea
In my opinion, Jessica Fletcher wins!!

I think Matlock bitchslapped Jessica Fletcher in court once when she was testifying. Thus, Matlock wins by a nose.
