8 Years After The Good Wife Ended, Its Creators Are Bringing Another Legal Drama To CBS And I Am Pumped

As a devoted fan of legal dramas who has spent countless hours engrossed in the intricate world of courtroom battles and moral dilemmas depicted by Robert and Michelle King, I can hardly contain my excitement for their upcoming series, Cupertino. It’s been far too long since they graced our screens with a legal drama on CBS, and I’ve been craving a David vs. Goliath storyline set in the tech-driven landscape of Silicon Valley like nobody’s business!


For eight years now, “The Good Wife” has been off the air, yet its legal drama legacy continues through spin-offs such as “The Good Fight”, available only on Paramount+, and “Elsbeth”, whose second season is set to debut on CBS during the upcoming Fall TV lineup. Despite being engrossed in the crime procedural “Elsbeth”, creators Robert and Michelle King are preparing to revisit the legal drama genre with a new CBS series, and I can hardly contain my excitement!

The royal team is working on a new show called “Cupertino,” which goes by that title temporarily. It’s being billed as a legal drama akin to David versus Goliath, taking place in Silicon Valley, according to Deadline. They are currently penning the script and will act as executive producers alongside Liz Glotzer of Size Productions. CBS Studios will be the production studio, marking another joint project between the studio and the Kings during their 15-year partnership.

Given that Robert and Michelle King were the masterminds behind the acclaimed TV series “The Good Wife,” which aired for seven seasons on CBS and was widely regarded as one of the best shows on television, I can’t help but be thrilled about what we might expect from their new project, “Cupertino.” Although they have also developed the legal drama spinoff “The Good Fight” for Paramount+, “Cupertino” will undoubtedly be the Kings’ first legal drama on CBS since the conclusion of “The Good Wife.” Any legal professional would concur that it’s high time for a new series from this talented duo.

At this point, not much more is known about Cupertino, as details such as plot summary and cast members have yet to surface. From what we’ve heard so far, though, it seems like a captivating show that you wouldn’t want to miss out on. Given the intriguing premise and the potential directions in which the Kings could develop the series, there’s a chance it might become their next successful legal drama franchise. For now, the possibilities are wide open.

News from Cupertino arrives following the recent conclusion of the supernatural thriller “Evil” on CBS-turned-Paramount+, after four seasons. The finale aired on August 22nd, yet despite many believing it’s an obvious choice for renewal, there’s no sign that this will occur. However, circumstances might shift, and fortunately, there are numerous other series similar to “Evil” that fans can enjoy in the interim.

Simultaneously, it’s announced that a new show is coming out, and interestingly enough, this news arrives only weeks before the second season of “Elsbeth” debuts on CBS, set for October 17. Despite not being a legal drama like its predecessors, “Elsbeth” has made a significant mark on the network, which might have influenced the creation of this latest series.

It’s been quite some time since Robert and Michelle King last explored the legal drama genre on CBS, so the possibility of a new legal drama from them returning to the network is definitely enticing, and I truly hope it becomes a reality.
