The Recent Suits Craze by Charlotte Gardner
There has been a recent craze about an older show called Suits. It has been gaining a lot of attention through social media outlets such as Instagram and TikTok, as well as having two Superbowl commercials recognizing the show. This has gained many people’s attention and has encouraged people to watch the show or even rewatch the show.
For some background, the show is about a group of lawyers that are based in New York City. However, one of them is fraud. They all work at a firm that is downtown, have prestigious backgrounds, and graduated from Harvard. It is a drama-filled show with both the lawyer’s perspective as well as a personal perspective to the show. There are 9 seasons and star actors including Gabriel Macht, Patrick Adams, Meghan Markle, and Sarah Rafferty.
Even though the show first aired in 2011 it is getting its most views right now and has been on Netflix’s Top 10 for weeks now. This can be thanks to the Superbowl commercials. Gabriel Macht and Patrick Adams starred in one for T-Mobile and they recreated a scene from the show. There was a second one that also aired. This one, however, starred Sarah Rafferty and Gina Torres. They reunited and did a commercial for e.l.f. The last reason it has been getting so much attention is because most of the cast reunited and appeared at the Oscars and presented a reward.
Brighton VanHorn is a junior here and is a big fan of the show. He said, “I love this show a lot and am happy that it is getting the recognition it deserves. I love the storyline and think it is a great show. It is my favorite show of all time and I believe I am Harvey Specter.”
If you are ever bored and are looking for a new show to binge, keep Suits on your radar!
