CBS TV Studios has renewed its production deal with “The Good Fight” creators Robert and Michelle King for three more years through their King Size Productions banner.

Under the agreement, CBS will have exclusive rights to produce television content created and developed by the Kings across all platforms. Liz Glotzer serves as president of King Size Productions and will executive produce all of their upcoming series. The duo, which has been with the studio since 2009, will continue to helm CBS All Access’ “The Good Fight,” the spinoff to their CBS drama, “The Good Wife.”

“Robert and Michelle are two of the finest persons I have ever had the privilege of working with,” said David Stapf, President, CBS Television Studios. “Their brilliant writing and ability to create distinctive, successful television is only surpassed by their quality as people. Everyone at CBS TV Studios is thrilled and very proud to be working with them, Liz and their team for many more years.”

Aside from continuing to helm “The Good Fight,” King Size has numerous projects in development at CBS Corp. companies. King Size’s newest project, “Your Honor” with Peter Moffat, was picked up by sister network, Showtime.

The Kings are also developing “Evil” for CBS, about the battle between science and religion. The project focuses on a skeptical female clinical psychologist who joins a priest-in-training and a blue-collar contractor as they investigate supposed miracles, demonic possession and other extraordinary occurrences to see if there’s a scientific explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work. They also have “Girls With Guns” in development at CBS All Access, in association with Scott Free Productions.

“We couldn’t be more delighted to continue our relationship with the fantastic people at CBS Studios,” said Robert and Michelle. “David Stapf has assembled a team of some of the smartest, most thoughtful and supportive executives in the business. Working with them is a dream.”
