From the moment audiences witnessed Mike’s
arrest in the closing moments of “Faith,” they
knew things would never be the same on
Suits. No matter what happened next, come
the end of the season, it would no longer
resemble the show it’s been since 2011.
However, little did anyone realize just how far
showrunner Aaron Korsh was going to push
the envelope – especially when he knew
another season was already coming down the
pipeline long before he began production on
these back six episodes. Little did anyone
expect for the closing moments of season five
to feature Mike not only not getting away with
fraud, but to see him walking into his home
for the next two years… and that’s what
makes it great.
Perhaps the biggest question fans had
concerning Suits was what its premise would
be now that its existing one is being
concluded. Where can it go? Well, it turns out
much further than many perceived possible.
Mike goes to prison. That’s the end of that…
for him. Who it isn’t the end for is Pearson
Specter Litt. Mike’s guilt comes with
repercussions. Mike’s guilt comes with
decimation. Mike’s guilt comes with re-
invention. As seen in the final moments of the
finale, the firm has been gutted, leaving no
man standing beyond the name partners, and
that’s where the show will now live. At least
for the course of season six, the next phase of
Suits is watching its world be re-built brick by
brick into something stronger than it ever was
previously.
