SUITS

‘When we first got to Toronto to shoot the show, Gabriel was planning to stay in a hotel. But we both ended up moving into my mom’s place. It was totally unplanned, just two guys trying to save money. Those 10 days ended up being one of the best things that happened for the show. By the time we got to set, we had a great rapport.’ —Patrick J. Adams

I FUCKING LOVE THIS SHOW. I can kind of see why critics weren’t so keen on the first season, but I blame legal drama/comedy fatigue. There are so many and there are have been so many that it takes a lot to stand out.

Personally, however, I love the sharp and witty script and nothing whatsoever beats how much I love every single one of the main characters. Harvey and Mike are great characters and their dynamic is so well executed by Gabriel and Patrick (not to mention, both of them are smoking hot, a kind bonus); I ADORE Donna’s quick-shot smartassery and yet again the dynamic between her and Harvey and Mike; Rachel is tough, but sweet and I love the balance of both in her character; Louis is perfect just the scoundrelly way he is and Jessica is one hell of a woman in control and she plays off of everyone else in the show flawlessly. Furthermore, their penchant for referencing movies I ACTUALLY KNOW is yet another little fun bonus for me.

All in all, a recipe for awesome.
