Suits - Season 3



Suits just ended its third season a few weeks ago. It's the story of a high powered attorney in Manhattan with the likes of Michael Jordan as his client, named Harvey Spector. When he makes senior partner at his firm, he gets to choose a protege first year law student. However, Harvey's firm only hires Harvard graduates. When the people at his is interview keep on coming as duds, he's about to cut out early. Enter Mike, running from a drug deal, he makes he way into the interview room with Harvey. Mike impressed Harvey with his photographic memory of the bar exam. Impressed, Harvey takes him on and the deception starts.



Now that's were into the third season and roughly a year into the deception, the stakes are higher than ever when Mike's make waves in the lawyer world. The season saw it split into two arcs, one at 10 episodes all broadcast in 2013 and the last six in 2014. The first arc is the jockeying of Darby and Spector against Pearson along with trying to keep the company afloat. Love is in the air as well. Mike and Rachel get serious. Harvey says he cares for Scottie. Litt proposes to Sheila.

The ending has some major ramifications for season four. With the decreasing rating for this season, my guess that Season 4 will be its last. I hope they go out with a bang. This series was innocent in its premise, but how long can you keep it going. We're finding out now. The first season only had 12 episodes and kept it short and sweet. Season's two and three went to 16 episodes each with long running battles. Hard for a casual observer to come in and catch on.

I caught up on Season two and three last summer when it became available on Amazon Prime. I than caught up on Season three as it was broadcasting.

As for the Asian in this series. Pretty sparse. You'll see them every once in awhile. But no main players are of the Asian persuasion.
