Suits Surges Up Netflix Top 10 After Latest Update

The hit legal drama Suits has forged its way to the top of the Netflix charts once again in the wake of the ninth and final season landing on the streaming platform at last. The series, which ended back in 2019 and stars Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams as New York City lawyers, saw surprise success on Netflix last year, during which time it rose through the ranks to become one of the biggest hits in the history of the streaming giant. And, now that the final season has become available, fans have been eager to tune in to see how it all ends.

Suits season 9 landed on Netflix earlier this week, with the series now climbing to #4 in the streamer’s Top 10. While it’s not quite the heights of 2023, it’s clear that the show has some serious staying power, and some seriously passionate fans, who are no doubt looking forward to the spinoff that is now in the works.

Starring Meghan Markle, Sarah Rafferty, Rick Hoffman, and Gina Torres alongside Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams, Suits is set in New York City and follows big-time corporate lawyer Harvey Specter and his team, which includes the young and sharp Michael James Ross, who uses his photographic memory to talk his way into a job despite not having a license to practice law. The series originally ran from 2011 to 2019 and was a big hit at the time, being nominated for numerous awards along the way. Even so, the success the show saw on Netflix was hugely surprising, with Suits quickly becoming the “most-watched acquired series in a single week” on the streamer.

While it is currently fourth in the Top 10, Suits could climb higher as more fans find out that season 9 is now available. The rest of the chart includes the documentary series Worst Roommate Ever, the new superhero series Supacell, real estate series Owning Manhattan, and the documentary show America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.

A Suits Spinoff, Suits: L.A., Is Now in Development

As for the upcoming spinoff series, Suits creator Aaron Korsh is on board as showrunner, with Arrow star Stephen Amell and The Walking Dead’s Josh McDermitt all set to lead. You can check out the synopsis for the series below, which will follow lawyers in Los Angeles.

“Suits: L.A. is centered on Ted Black, a former federal prosecutor from New York, who has reinvented himself representing the most powerful clients in Los Angeles. His firm is at a crisis point, and to survive he must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career.

Ted is surrounded by a stellar group of characters who test their loyalties to both him and each other while they can’t help but mix their personal and professional lives. All of this is going on while events from years ago slowly unravel, leading Ted to leave behind everything and everyone he loved.”
