I was scrolling through Netflix looking for something to watch and came across SUITS. I knew this was not a new show. It already had nine seasons but had been canceled. I watched the trailer and it instantly drew me in. It had a rapid pace, snappy dialogue, and characters to match. Once I started watching I knew I’d be bingeing for hours; so much for working on my novel as I’d intended.

The two main characters Michael and Harvey are excellent with great chemistry. The supporting cast is extremely strong. As I continued to watch Megan Markle popped up looking beautiful and killing it walking in tight skirts and very high heels. She of course is now the Duchess of Sussex and is married to Prince Harry. But she had competition from the other supporting actresses especially from veteran Gina Torres.

This show does deal with different court cases for each episode with their private lives interspersed. What I liked was that the stories weren’t formulaic like a lot of shows, where the format was always predictable and you knew what was coming next. Gabriel Macht who plays Harvey should be a better-known name than he is because this role was made for him. Patrick Adams who is Michael carries the show because much of it is from his point of view. He is so likable and can take you from moments of joy to the reverse.

They say the show was canceled due to Megan Markle leaving the show to marry Prince Harry. Which is too bad. Even though I haven’t finished binge-watching yet, I hope this show does not end up like many other hit shows, where the writers come up with outrageous ideas just to keep us interested because they believe we have short attention spans.
