Pilot

I needed something to binge watch and found "Suits." Most shows take at least 3 episodes to build a following, so I gave it the 3 show minimum. I am just now finishing Season 7. I would say that 14 out of 16, on average, shows kept my interest. It's not one of these shows where the main characters win their case every week, so it's more believable than "The Good Wife."

One thing I absolutely could not stand was the music. It was extremely heavy on The Fray and bands like them, and there is only so much I can take of that melodramatic genre before I wanted to puke. But instead, I just turned the volume off or way down.

If you like courtroom drama mixed with interesting characters, give "Suits" a shot.

"Suits," Season 1, Episode 1: "Pilot" (2011) is a professionally produced comedy drama about brilliant college dropout, Mike Ross played by Patrick Adams, as he unconventionally meets lawyer Harvey Specter, played by Gabriel Macht, and lands himself a job after a drug deal gone bad. This episode is 72 minutes of gripping storylines and excellent acting. Mike, the lovable loser, and Harvey, the overconfident egotistical winner, are a match made in heaven. Their acting abilities are so good, I forget that I am watching a television show and thus fail to view it objectively. I feel like I have been snatched along for the ride.

This pilot is captivating and has the layers to allow it to proceed in any direction desired. Not only did this pilot convince me to watch further episodes, it is single-handedly the reason I make time to watch other television shows. This shows formula, of two storylines within one episode, allows viewers to have closure of one at the end, but keeps them wondering about the second. This is a great show and I highly recommend it to anyone who have given up on television.

I like the bit where they hire a bloke who never went to law school.

The batman meets his robin. What else do you want. The moment Mike Ross meets Harvey Specter, Harvey knows that he has met himself

This is one the best pilot episodes ever! The whole thing felt like a movie. A very good one.
