Last season, the ratings for the Suits TV show dropped quite a bit. Will they continue to fall so that the series is in danger of being cancelled, or is it essentially guaranteed to be renewed for a fifth season (so there will be enough episodes for syndication)? Stay tuned.
Suits revolves around the exploits of superstar attorney Harvey Spector (Gabriel Macht) and his associate and protegé Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams). The show’s cast also includes Rick Hoffman, Gina Torres, Sarah Rafferty, and Meghan Markle.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
8/11 update: USA has renewed Suits for a fifth season for Summer 2015.

Reference point: Season three of Suits averaged a 0.9 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.73 million total viewers.
Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Suits TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a fifth season?
One of the best series that ever been on TV
I can’t remember but didn’t this show come on during the summer a year or go? There is so much to watch now, many people are not tuned in to some cable shows. This is one of my favs.
according to the 2/26 Nielsen ratings, more people watched House Hunters on HGTV than Suits. that can’t be good.
Last season, there was absolutely too much bickering and how Louis Litt became partner was not ideal; however, overall — this is a good, really good program. This season has proven to be much better and it deserves to keep going. I actually like getting to know the characters. We met Jessica’s sister — that was a nice touch. Get the cast back in the court room — and let us get to know more about the characters.
Do not cancel this show!!!
My husband and I have been thrilled with Suits! Complex and intelligent characters, with enough ego and insecurity to draw you in! Great writing, intrigue and class. Just when I am concerned that the story line or emotion is going to tip, the writers and characters bring back balance and keep me hungry and pleasantly surprised. It is such a joy to know there is still smart programming available for those of us who are bored and disgusted with the typical 6th grade writing and predictable story lines that dumb our senses! Oh and of course the incredible deadly charm… Read more »
I think they sort of lost momentum with that really short season that had only 4 or 6 episodes or something ridiculous. I was excited when it came back last season, and with more episodes, but it fell off my radar some. Now, with this season, I keep forgetting to watch it, but I do record it so I can catch up eventually. I just think the flow got thrown off a bit.
there was no really short season, usa just splits the season with 10 episodes airing in the summer and 6 in the winter. still confusing all the same.
Would like to see more in the courtroom
Please don’t cancel this show. However please do take out the part of them using God’s name in vain. Everything is good except the parts where they say Gd(God’s name in vain)
Too much fighting. No one appears in court. Can’t watch it anymore.
Love this show, reason dropped last season was Mike against Harvey, much better when they work together.
current ratings say them working together isn’t much better
Looks like suits is being taken out to the cleaners
when will you post the new ratings for USA, FX and other cable networks. some of their shows have been back for several weeks now
We have been posting the new cable ratings. I think the only one we haven’t done yet is Sirens.
How can they justify using the Lord’s name in vain? Now a smooth move,
if they expect to keep their show going. O.k. all you Christians – make your
voice be heard. Thank you.
CANCEL!!!!!! I will NEVER watch this show again!!!!! To use God’s name in vain just is so WRONG…it is “cut throat” and “mean”……
I love the show but for these 2 elements. 1) I am done with Jessica and Jeff as the relationship adds nothing to the show. 2) I wish Mike would stop promising, canceling and then repromising wins…..for whatever reason this annoys me.
