On Friday, Feb. 7, 76-year-old Kathy Bates won the Best Actress in a Drama Series award at the 30th Annual Critics Choice Awards for her role in the CBS series “Matlock”.

She then thanked everyone who helped her achieve the award, highlighting the love and vast experience on the set, from those rolling the dolly, working the camera, to the costumers and others, saying it felt like a miracle to work there.
