The spectacular legacy of Suits is not embedded in the impossible, adrenaline-imbued procedural legal dramatics of Harvey Specter and his ever-unbeatable record. It is entrenched in every fiber of the fashionable chic and alluring world of cutthroat ambition wrapped in the glamorous New York City skyline.
After 9 years and 9 seasons of the series establishing itself as one of the most binge-worthy dramas of modern television, Suits now spreads its wings and finds a new home in another glamorous city – home to Hollywood’s very own Tinsel Town aka LA. Starring Stephen Amell in the lead, Suits: LA gets ready to take off full steam ahead.
Suits: LA Wants to Bring Back a Legacy Character
Despite the hype surrounding the new Suits spinoff starring Stephen Amell, the impact and irreplaceable nostalgia that the original series holds over the audience was bound to get in the way of the new generation of smooth talkers. Suits: LA will never be able to replicate the experience that the original series delivered to its fans and as such, the spinoff is now resorting to cheap tricks to bring in viewers from all nooks and crannies of the world.
As the launch of Suits: LA draws closer, news hits the stands in full force about a certain legacy character’s comeback without whom the world of fashionable lawyers with attitudes to die for just seems empty and meaningless. In an exclusive issue published by Deadline, sources have reported the return of Harvey Specter in the spinoff series for a brief role.
Sources claim that Gabriel Macht‘s suave and ruthless lawyer who will forever reign supreme over the television legal genre will make a comeback in a three-episode arc before handing over the keys to the kingdom to the new generation. Although brief, fans have been caught in a whirlwind of frenzied ecstasy over the possibility of getting witness Harvey Specter at work again!
The Magical Dilemma of Harvey Specter’s Return
Gabriel Macht’s comeback as Harvey Specter has enough power to calm the waters and bring back hope into a dying and colorless industry. But sadly, the actor is set to return only in a limited capacity and for a brief and fleeting moment to set the gears churning in the new offshoot of the original drama.
On one hand, the news has driven fans to the edges of excitement, anticipation, and joy over watching their favorite character in action, slashing his underlings with brutal one-liners and taking down his opponents in a magnificent showdown inside the courtroom. But, on the other, some fans also realize the vain and fleeting hope that the return of Gabriel Macht provides to the new series.
Social media platforms have now transformed into a space for debate over whether the return of Gabriel Macht is a show of good faith on behalf of the new players or simply a callback to the old days to draw attention and hype via a cheap and underhanded method.

His presence is to sell the new Suits series. I understand that. 3 episodes to tilt the audience towards new characters in the new Suits. I ain’t mad at that.

The best closer in the game is making a limited comeback! Time to dust off that can opener speech and teach these new lawyers what swagger really looks like 🔥👔 Can’t wait to hear “What did you just say to me?” again!

Smart move. He’ll bring in the audiences and three eps warm up for other chracters is enough. Can’t he stay longer though 😅🤷♀️
