Suits was created to be intense and edgy, but while it was trying to accomplish these goals, it made some choices that don’t stand the test of time. Suits ran from 2011-2018 on the USA Network and follows Mike Ross, a man with a photographic memory who gets a position with Harvey Spector despite having no formal law degree. The series was massively popular during its original run on cable television, but it became exorbitantly more popular upon its arrival on Netflix in 2023. The increased focus and viewership have meant a chance to reexamine Suits 12 years after it began.
