The writers are shaking things up in season six of Suits but will this help the ratings? The numbers have been slipping but it’s still USA Network’s highest-rated scripted show. Could it be cancelled or, is it essentially guaranteed to be renewed for season seven? Stay tuned.
Suits revolves around the exploits of superstar attorney Harvey Spector (Gabriel Macht) and his college dropout protegé Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams). The show’s cast also includes Gina Torres, Rick Hoffman, 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.
8/3 update: USA has renewed Suits for a seventh season. Details here.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
For comparisons: The fifth season of Suits averaged a 0.57 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.01 million 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 that it should be cancelled or renewed for a seventh season?
I think it’s time for the show to end, and to end while it’s sort of strong. I’m not sure about the ratings but the storylines keep getting recycled: the firm is always in danger, the firm changes its name, they always have to save Mike or Donna from something, Harvey and Donna keep going around in circles, etc. It has a great cast but it feels like they have nothing new to tell. With Gina Torres gone and the main premise gone too, it’s time for the network to give it closure.
I love Suits – wish Donna and Harvey would be a couple before it’s finally cancelled 😉
I absolutely love Suits..Great characters and storyline..I really think if it were on a major network, it would have killer ratings..Sadly many people don’t know it exists..
the show is well written and entertaining, it should be renewed!!!!!!
This is by far my favorite show!!!!!!!!!! Please keep it going for more seasons!!! I think the reason of viwers have dropped is because the way people watch shows now. Most people never watch it that day they record or stream online maybe if they tracked it that way there numbers accuallty would be higher or the same.
I agree. People like Neilsen Scan need to monitor Kodi and Trakt TV, Netflix and Apple TV, Google Play and iTunes to monitor the digital version of the episodes. Where people are PVRing the episodes and streaming them through Kodi or Roku, iTunes and Netflix, these should be monitored along with Cable. Most people don’t bother with cable anymore.
Good show. I love Suits. More seasons, please. I have a crush on Harvey
Can’t see it going much further than season 7. But it was great while it lasted.
Hopefully it does. I love it
I love this show and hope it renews!
The way the ethics tensions between Harvey and Mike have been playing out is brilliant. Love it in e15 where he says “we are really the same”. More seasons please.
Husband & I have rebonded from watching Suits. Have enjoyed each characters personality and strength, what they bring to the table. The interpersonal kniting to make Family is beautiful. Despite the aggravating, manipulating, vulnerabilities, and daily banter over events. Great Story writers. Love the music. My husband brings me a piece of pie on cue. Will be dissappointed when seasons finally do end. Please do run Season Seven. Thank you. Cyndy
Hopefully this series will go two more seasons, one more I don’t think that a season 7 can bring everything together. According to various internet posts (yes, I know) USA has already scheduled a season 7, and possibly even season 8
Fabulous show!!! I love to see angling for problem solving
Great stuff. I run to the tv. I love to see wrangling to win.
turn out the lights, this party is over
Just about my favorite show! Good writing and acting. Al the characters are interesting and relatable.
So you can relate to a partner of a law firm and a college drop-out with an eidetic memory? Wow what a world you must live in
I can relate too
Someone who loves what they do and has a drive to work
Also, Donna (sp?)
We all just want to big ballers, rocking shiny office jobs, don’t hate
I’ve loved this show right up until season 6. I hate the jail episodes and stopped watching.
No problems as Mike is now out of prison. Go back to watching the show as you are missing heaps of twists and turns. Love this show.
