TV Talk: CMU grads take the lead in CBS’ ‘Cupertino’

triblive.com: There’s no question CBS legal drama “Cupertino” is the best reviewed broadcast network series in years, but it’s also that rare show with two Carnegie Mellon University grads as series regulars.

I love reading articles about CMU alumni! I make sure to keep an eye out for them each week, which is why I was so excited to read this article when it was posted to the blog! I really enjoyed hearing about Keller’s experience when she had to return to Pittsburgh to film a previous project, “A Man Called Otto.” She still loved the city that she called home for four years, but she found it refreshing to see a new side of the city without the pressures of school work and her nannying job in mind. I also really liked hearing about the writer’s process when developing this show. I find the fact that the two writers are married absolutely heartwarming, and I find their explorations on modern ideas of religious faith and technology to be extremely relevant and extraordinarily well-written. I love hearing about how supportive alumni are in the actual field, and I will be adding this TV show to my watch list!
