‘Suits LA’ Canceled Ahead of Season One Finale
Suits la canceled – NBC has canceled the spinoff series of the beloved USA Network courtroom dramedy. The first season will conclude with its forthcoming May 18 finale, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
The 13-episode NBC series brought back original stars Gabriel Macht as Harvey Specter, David Costabile as Daniel Hardman and the remaining episodes are set to see Rick Hoffman return as Louis Litt.
Suits LA, however, launched with a focus on a new set of lawyers, led by Stephen Amell as entertainment lawyer Ted. After the legal drama exploded on Netflix in 2023, creator Aaron Korsh decided to expand the Suits universe with the franchise’s second spinoff, setting the story on the West Coast.
The original Suits, which brought the world Meghan Markle, ran from 2011-2019 on USA Network. It did well for USA, but the show really exploded after heading to Netflix in a syndication (of sorts) deal.
On Netflix, Suits became the undisputed show of summer 2023 — and really of 2023 as a whole. Suits was Nielsen’s No. 1 streaming series for a record 12 straight weeks, passing Ozark. Suits was streamed for nearly 58 billion minutes in 2023. The show was also on Peacock during that time period, but almost all of the viewership came on Netflix.
Suits LA did not share much in the resurgence of its source series. Netflix had an opportunity to purchase the spinoff show, but the streamer passed.
NBC also canceled sitcoms Lopez vs. Lopez and Night Court on Friday — they ran for three seasons apiece — as well as The Irrational and Found. NBC will host its upfront on Monday at Radio City Music Hall, and the network is cleaning house for when the NBA returns to its airwaves this fall.
