Suits LA canceled after a single season at NBC

Although Suits became something of a phenomenon when it first hit Netflix, it seems Suits LA was unable to capture that same magic. According to reporting in Entertainment Weekly, the show has been canceled ahead of its first season finale on NBC. The season finale will still air as planned but will be the show’s last episode.

While it shared the same name as the original show, Suits LA was set in Los Angeles instead of New York and followed a largely new cast that was led by Stephen Amell. A few familiar faces popped up over the course of the run, but the show didn’t have the same hooky premise as the original and also emphasized a slightly edgier tone.

The original series first debuted on USA in 2011 and followed a legal shark who takes on an up-and-coming attorney who is not who he appears to be. The show gained a new audience in 2023 when it first hit Netflix, perhaps in part because the show starred Meghan Markle, who eventually became part of the British Royal Family. That rekindled interest in the original series was a huge part of the impetus for the creation of this spin-off series.

Perhaps because of its limited connection to the original show, though, it wasn’t able to grab the same audience. Series creator Aaron Korsh previously told Entertainment Weekly that he would be interested in a spin-off movie featuring the original cast, though, so we might not be done with Suits just yet.

“I was very satisfied with the way Suits ended, and at some point we might do a Suits movie and that could be fun,” Korsh said. “It’s more in the hypothetical or theoretical stages, so I wouldn’t have many answers for you [now]. But it’s not an insane notion for us to someday do that.”

Suits LA trailer: Legal spinoff heads to the West Coast

Suits is heading to the West Coast. NBC has released the official trailer for Suits LA, the spinoff to the popular USA Network legal drama Suits.
Stephen Amell stars as Ted Black, the so-called "best attorney in the country." The former federal prosecutor from New York has now set up shop on the West Coast, with a firm full of powerful clients. A new location means different challenges, as Ted's firm is at a crisis point. On the West Coast, Ted says, "People lie. They cheat. They do whatever they can to win" before engaging in shady practices like bribery and fighting.
The trailer's final moments tease the return of Harvey Spencer (Gabriel Macht), the star of Suits. A man refers to Harvey as "the only person he knew cockier" than Black, to which Ted says, "That's exactly why I liked him."
