Our Review
Cupertino (2026) is a legal series from CBS. Episodes run about 60 minutes. It premiered on October 8, 2026. Viewers rate it 7.4 out of 10. It is currently to be determined. It runs 1 season.
What Cupertino Is About
A scrappy lawyer takes on a powerful tech giant in a high-stakes legal battle, navigating the cutthroat world of Silicon Valley while fighting for justice and the little guy’s rights.
What to Expect When You Watch
Episodes run about 60 minutes, which keeps the pace tight, spread across 1 season and it leans into its legal roots while leaving room for the quieter character beats.
Performance-wise the series leans on Ella Stiller, Mike Colter and Renée Elise Goldsberry to carry the emotional weight, with the rest of the ensemble filling out the world around them.
Cast and Creative Team
Ella Stiller, Mike Colter, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Rachel Keller, Nik Dodani and Busy Philipps lead the cast.
Key roles include Ella Stiller as Christy Palladino; Mike Colter as Michael Price; Renée Elise Goldsberry as Nichole E. Ferebee; Rachel Keller as Olivia Siffre; Nik Dodani as Vik Malhotra.
Why It Stands Out
Fans of legal have a clear reason to give this one a shot. It sits comfortably alongside CBS’s other originals, a 7.4/10 audience score puts it in steady company and it commits to its premise instead of hedging between tones.
Released in 2026 and carried by CBS with the series still to be determined, it lands hardest with legal viewers.
How Cupertino Compares
If Cupertino lands for you, the next stops are Better Call Saul, How to Get Away with Murder and Presumed Innocent, which share its legal lean.
Each of those sits at a different point on the same spectrum, so they make a natural follow-up once you finish the run here.

On the whole Cupertino is the kind of series that rewards a patient watch, with Ella Stiller and Mike Colter doing the heaviest lifting, a tone that stays true to its legal roots, It has held up since 2026 and so if the premise sounds like your lane, the execution holds up.
The Bottom Line
Cupertino is a safe bet for anyone already inside the legal lane, the audience score holds around 7.4/10 and so there is little risk in starting it tonight.
Verdict: 7.4/10. Watch it if you want legal you can settle into.
