USA Network is days away from airing the highly anticipated Season 7 premiere of their popular drama, Suits. Back in their fan-favorite roles, Patrick J. Adams and Gabriel Macht continue to hit their stride as slick lawyers Mike Ross and Harvey Specter.
As we previously mentioned, Mike Ross (Adams) found himself in prison life, starting his two-year sentence. Meanwhile, the Pearson Specter & Litt offices struggles to keep business afloat after the departure of their partners. With the scandal affecting resources, Jessica Pearson (Gina Torres), Louis Litt (Rick Hoffman), Donna Paulson (Sarah Rafferty) and Rachel Zane (Meghan Markle) attempt to save the firm. Harvey Specter (Macht) is on his own personal mission to bend the rules and get Mike released from prison.
5. Will Jessica Ever Come Back!?!
In the sixth season finale, Gina Torres said goodbye to Jessica Pearson, who played such a pivotal part of the show. With Pearson gone and the scandal Ross left behind, can Litt and Specter work together to bring the firm back to its prominent status? What will clients do when they see Mike working with the firm again?
4. Rachel’s Wedding!
Meghan Markle stepped up as a supporting character with her own story arc last season. Moving forward, we cannot wait and see what Rachel Zane does to fill in the void left behind Jessica Pearson. And will Rachel and Mike ever walk down the aisle on their wedding day?
3. The 100th Episode
Not only will he be on-screen, Patrick J. Adams will be directing off-screen the milestone episode. Suits has come a long way since its pilot originally aired. Very few shows make it to seven seasons and as fans, we should be grateful Suits still holds strong after all these years.
2. New Cast Member!

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Dule Hill joins as the ensemble a series regular. Alex Williams (Hill) is a longtime friend of Harvey’s and a senior partner at rival law firm Bratton Gould, where he maintains an enviable roster of clients. After seeing his comedic chops in Psych, I cannot wait to see the West Wing actor in a dramatic role.
1. Back Together Again!
Mike Ross was separated from the cast most of sixth season. It took awhile too for the USA drama to explain why Mike would return to the firm. Though we missed Macht and Adams sharing the screen together, it’s great to know we’ll be seeing their dynamic chemistry again.
Season 7 of Suits airs Wednesday, July 12, 2017.
