Because they keep watching expecting different results.

This week's episode made the premiere look like Citizen Kane, but I'm totally plot committed to this idiocy.

I'm not quitting but wish USA could help me out and end it.

I don't hate it as much as others but did think 1st episode was boring and dragged on to long.

From what I heard, there are at least this season and next season to come. It's still (sigh) the highest rated USA scripted show...

But, I would recommend trying out Queen of the South (try to get past the first 20 minutes of the Pilot, and you might not feel bad about dropping this).

Yea I need to check that out. I was planning on watching it but somehow missed the air date.

The 5th one airs tonight.

I was waiting for the inevitable reboot of the series during this season of Suitshank, and was surprised they made it into episode 3 without one. But that was as far as they could get without the rinse and repeat happening. Even with Mike being in prison, we can't get away from this storyline, among other storylines that feel very familiar...but different. This series is almost like a real life The Twilight Zone. I'd call that episode of The Twilight Zone "Seven Characters in Search of an Entrance".

renewed for s7

Ready for that reboot

I think it will be Harvey in prison in the next one, for killing Gallo (self defense but no one believed him), and then the guy Mike's informing on will try make Harvey his b***h for getting him sent up longer (ruining his life aka the Gallo song and dance). Then Mike will blackmail the prosecutor who put him in for fraud to have her help him get Harvey out of prison, because he could still rat on her 2nd chair for cheating which would get all her cases reviewed that he worked on. Jessica will have a face off with some new male guy, getting the best of him, while undermining herself in the process. And then season 8 will be Jessica in prison for insider trading, with Mike (with a real law degree by now) blackmailing Cahill to help get her out of prison, since he helped with that one guy that ended up landing Harvey in prison, because Harvey had such a hard on for Gallo. And since Cahill is an SEC guy, boom, it will work. You're welcome, now you don't even have to watch season 7 or 8.

As for this most recent episode, wtf are the writers of this show thinking? The WHOLE premise of the end of last season is that Mike would never be a rat, despite him being able to send Harvey up and stay with Rachel. So, Cahill approaches him with a deal that is essentially identical to the one he turned down for Harvey. He was at the altar with Rachel, and still went. 2 hours of fornication later, and boom, he is now ready to rat on his cellmate to be able to get back with her. Nice logic there, writers, I guess that's why you have to reboot the same stories over and over every season. If this were the route they were always planning on taking, there was absolutely no reason for Mike not to have taken the deal last year. I think it would have been much more fun to have seen Harvey in prison, and Mike running that electric waxer thingy for the firm (as I'm sure he could work his way back up to real lawyer with any deal he would have taken).

Fear of loss is a powerful human emotion. It's one thing to look forward and be worried (the alter part you refer to) it's another to look back and see what you're missing.

Mike turning it down several times is essential to instiling the idea that he is going against everything he believes in morally, to be back with the woman that he loves. Just a taste of what he's missing is enough to push him over the edge, which is exactly what Harvey planned.

Don't get me wrong, I think that this season so far has been **** in comparion, but I personally think that episode 4 is a step back in the right direction.

not to mention ratting on Harvey=/= somehow persuading random cellmate to give up other people in his family.

I'd be down with that line of thinking if there hadn't been that whole arc in his pre-plea episode where he was trying to convince his recently acquired client to not turn on his crew. Guy was like f that, and flipped. You can try to say it's different, but this was a character code. Mike doesn't flip, on Harvey or anyone, based on what we've seen. And his bond with his cellmate is arguably nearly as tight as his one with Harvey based on the things they've both been through.

LOL

They've clearly had a lot of sex together. You don't get that vibe? Peeling the potatoes is together is a clear euphemism.

I knew I was out after episode 1 this season, just wasn't feeling it anymore. gg Mike and Harvey, y'all had a good run.

Meant to post this after ep3, but Alan Rosenberg looks terrible for 65. Hope he's okay.

first episode in awhile that ive liked

Rachael is the most annoying charachter

Great drinking game when watching "Suits".

Anyone says "What are you talking about?" Big chug.

Anyone says "What the hell are you talking about?" Chug full beer.

Drunk by the end of show.

shot every time they awkwardly force "god damn" into a sentence to sound edgy and cool. you dead

also this Louis sub-plot is absolutely ridiculous. do they really not have anything better for him & Jessica to do?

Louis is ridiculous, but I feel like they've taken it too far. His character is so pathetic right now, to the point where I don't even pity him, I just loath him.

Rachel is typically annoying af, but for some reason I find her passion toward this case admirable.

Mike's primadonna, 'I don't know why I even bothered asking you for help' phase is really grinding my gears as well.

Also, as a side-note, the new style of crass humour they're pushing is annoying me a bit as well. That whole wood dialogue I would probably find funny in Frasier or Seinfeld, but in Suits it just seems silly.

The wood stuff was actually really good, because Louis doesn't get that he's talking in double entendres. If he actually acted like he knew what he was saying it wouldn't work at all (the editing also hurt the scene a bit). That was actually good comedy, with excellent straight delivery, and what you saw was literal laughter of an actor who broke character. I don't think the scene was intended to play that long (had an outtakes feel), but they really liked making Donna crack up. He has comedic chops, for sure. Kelsey Grammer could have never gotten through a scene like that without laughing at himself or showing that he was in on the joke (part of why stuff like that would work so well in Frasier).

The last two episodes are probably the best ones this show's had in a long time. They weren't boring, and there are a bunch of goals in play. The overarching plot is ridiculous (everyone knows everyone and everything's connected), and who gives a crap about the Sutter story? But, it still had some elements that made Suits work in the past. There's just no way Louis's story would play out with the woman not thinking he's a complete creep, though. Good thing the whole thing was blown early, so it didn't have to turn uber creepy over a season 1 arc. I think the best thing they could have done to the show would have been having Harvey and Mike be cellmates as part of a plea bargain at the end of last season. Then you could have the two shows we've actually missed for the past 3 or 4 seasons. It only really works when Mike and Harvey are together with scenes like the one where they played the two guys off of each other.

the woman's reaction to Louis is possibly the most ridiculous thing to ever happen on this show

which, of course, is saying a lot

lol
