Suits: LA Ready to Bring the Legal Drama to Los Angeles
Hey, you know those sharp Suits, those nail-biting court battles? Yeah, that's "Suits"! Turns out, "Suits" is making a big comeback on NBC, and they're bringing us "Suits: LA" — a brand new series. Now, it might have taken some time for this whole reboot to happen. Remember that Netflix brought back the original "Suits", but that was a total surprise, and those "Suits" fans are pumped.
This LA-based spinoff will follow a different story, with some different characters. You're going to meet the hotshot lawyer, Ted Black — who’s played by Stephen Amell — he moves from New York City to Los Angeles for work! Talk about a shift in the setting, huh? The show looks like it's going to feature some iconic LA-vibe scenes with all kinds of dramatic courtroom confrontations! But there's a big twist...
Taking a Cue from the Big Apple? The Location Shift
"Suits" was about all those brilliant lawyers in New York. They had the suits, they had the high-powered law firm, and you know, the whole New York scene. But get this—they filmed the whole show in Toronto. That's a long way from the city that never sleeps! They had to recreate the city and it didn't exactly give off those 'true New York vibes'. "Suits: LA"? It’s gonna be filming in the City of Angels!
It seems like this show's getting everything right — filming on location. They're doing it, for real. So those gorgeous Hollywood scenes will be real, for real, making it way more believable! Those fancy mansions, those dramatic courts—you’ll get to see the real thing.
Why Filming On Location Can Make or Break a Show
Okay, I've gotta say it's great to have a show that’s actually going to the right location, since "Suits: LA" is actually filmed in LA! The production team can really capture those famous LA views—like that classic Hollywood skyline or a palm tree-lined drive. No more creating these faux-New York backdrops, which were super clever, but they lacked that real feeling.
Filming on location will actually create a more authentic feel. It just gives the series that extra oomph! There’s gonna be a real Los Angeles vibe — all the drama, the glam, and maybe a sprinkle of those West Coast laid-back attitudes.
"Suits: LA" - A Spin-off, But Maybe Better
With a fresh story and characters — like the lead lawyer, Ted Black, along with Stuart Lane (that's Josh McDermitt), a new cast is giving this show a lot of hope for fans. Some might even say that it has the potential to be way better than the original "Suits"! After all, "Suits" was great, but everyone loves a twist on an old formula!
With the whole "Suits" universe getting a new direction and this production being done right on location— it's kind of the start of a whole new chapter for “Suits". "Suits: LA" has to follow the first series' vibe – you know those fast-paced episodes, those courtroom showdowns, and all that corporate drama. And to do all this on location, with a new, exciting storyline – we've gotta give “Suits: LA” a chance, even if the previous "Pearson" spinoff wasn't as well received.
