Robert and Michelle King are in the midst of developing a new legal series for CBS, titled “Cupertino.”
The project, which is described as a David vs. Goliath legal show set in Silicon Valley, has been ordered to the writers’ room for 12 episode scripts, CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach revealed Wednesday during the network’s 2025-26 schedule unvieling.
“I’m incredibly excited to announce today that we’re also opening a full writer’s room, and we’re doing 12 scripts for ‘Cupertino’ from Michelle and Robert King,” Reisenbach said. “The Kings are some of our most prolific and visionary creators, and not a day goes by that someone doesn’t quote a line from ‘Evil,’ ‘The Good Fight,’ ‘The Good Wife,’ or, of course, reference a recent episode from ‘Elsbeth.'”
“When we read the script … it was a no brainer that we wanted to move forward with the show as part of a year round development strategy,” she continued. “It’s so key in the way it’s written, we can’t wait to dive into this room, which will be starting soon.”
Robert and Michelle King will serve as executive producers for “Cupertino” alongside Liz Glotzer for King Size Productions and CBS Studios.
If greenlit, “Cupertino” would be slated for the 2026-27 broadcast season, joining drama series “Einstein,” which was recently pushed from the 2025-26 season to the following year.
