Suits is an American legal drama television series created and written by Aaron Korsh. The series premiered on June 23, 2011, on the cable network USA, and is produced by Universal Cable. Suits is set at a fictional law firm in New York City. The focal point of the show follows talented college dropout Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), who initially works as a law associate for Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht), despite never actually attending law school. The show focuses on Harvey and Mike managing to close cases while maintaining Mike's secret.
Suits has been nominated for several awards since 2012, with Gina Torres and Patrick J. Adams receiving individual praise for their roles as Jessica Pearson and Mike Ross respectively. The show was nominated for Best Drama at the 2014 TV Guide Awards and Favorite Dramedy at the 2014 People's Choice Awards. Torres was nominated for Favorite TV Actress in a Supporting Role at the 2012 ALMA Awards and as Best Supporting Actress in Television at the 2013 Imagen Foundation Awards, while Adams was nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series at the 2012 Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Season 6 premiered on July 1, 2016. In August 2016, the series was renewed for a 16-episode seventh season, which is set to premiere in 2017.
Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) is a highly intelligent college dropout, who, with his natural intelligence and eidetic memory, makes a living illegally taking the LSAT for others. To keep raising money to pay for care for his terminally ill grandmother, he agrees to deliver a large case of marijuana for his best friend drug dealer Trevor (Tom Lipinski). The deal happens to be a sting operation which Mike astutely discovers and narrowly avoids, only to stumble into a job interview with Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht), a lawyer at Pearson Hardman and said to be the "best closer in New York City". Recently made senior partner, Harvey must hire a Harvard Law–educated associate. Mike uses his mental gifts and street-smarts to prove he is undoubtedly the best choice, even though a fraud. Mike is consequently hired, despite having neither received a college degree nor attended Harvard Law. The series focuses on Mike and Harvey as they try cases for the firm while maintaining Mike's secret.
