Change is in the air when it comes to your Thursday night streaming schedule.
Our Thursdays were previously occupied by a fun combination of medical dramas — The Pitt, Grey’s Anatomy, and Doctor Odyssey — but The Pitt recently aired its season finale, and both Doc Oddy and Grey’s are set to conclude on May 15. But on the bright side… Hacks is back, and a new romantic western series starring Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly, Ransom Canyon, is streaming on Netflix. So it’s not all bad.
Another Thursday night staple about to take a break? You guessed it… Matlock.
The two-hour season finale of Kathy Bates’ popular legal drama airs tonight (April 17) on CBS. What does the future hold for Matty? Has Matlock been renewed for a second season? Here’s everything you need to know.

What Time Is The Matlock Finale On Tonight (April 17)?
