I understand why this show was created. Suits gained a streaming following well after the show was over. That new life gave the brand value and a chance of infinite Suits spinoffs is worth the risk.

If it had been good enough and taken off, great, but I think we all expected this outcome.

There were a bunch of 2010s USA network shows that were fun, Burn Notice, White Collar, Psych, and of course Suits. I'd love to have seen them capture it again, but it wasn't meant to be.

I didn't watch this show so maybe I'm off base here.

The dexter stuff proves the og characters are the most important part. If you want to capitalize on an old show becoming big on tiktok and streaming, you gotta use the characters people like and identify with

I was gonna write something sarcastic about Stephen Amell's acting but then I found this in the article

This is now the second Suits spinoff to run for one season, following USA’s Pearson.

Huh, I guess I always assumed the original took place in LA.
