LOS ANGELES – USA Network’s acclaimed series “Suits” is set to return at 9 p.m. Eastern/Pacific on March 28 as part of the network’s new spring lineup that includes scripted originals COLONY (May 2), QUEEN OF THE SOUTH (June 21) and SHOOTER (June 21) all returning for exciting and action-packed third seasons. Also returning this spring is unscripted original CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST, which premieres its sixth season on May 8 and celebrates its 100th episode on June 19.
SUITS began when legendary hotshot lawyer Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) took a gamble by hiring Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), a brilliant but not-so-legitimate college dropout, as an associate at his prolific Manhattan law firm. Nearly seven seasons later, this dynamic duo, along with Louis (Rick Hoffman), Donna (Sarah Rafferty) and Rachel (Meghan Markle), have become a family intertwined in one another’s triumphs and tribulations.
When the back half of Season 7 returns, Harvey must deal with the aftermath of Jessica (Gina Torres) losing her license while trying to process how the kiss with Donna will affect his relationship with Paula (Christina Cole). Mike tries to juggle his commitment to the firm, his passion for pro bono work, and his engagement to Rachel. All the while, Louis struggles with right and wrong as his torrid affair with Sheila (Rachael Harris) deepens.
