I dropped out of a class called American National Government in September because it clashed with my crime reporting (jour) class. I managed to attend four lectures, and in the third one, the professor brought up the legal drama Suits to make a point. I was intrigued, so I went home, fired up my Netflix (premium, lol), and started watching Suits. A month later, I had finished the entire series.
The characters really pulled me in, especially Mike Ross and Harvey Specter. Mike’s story—a college dropout landing a job at a top law firm—hit home for me as a student trying to figure things out. It’s like a reminder that sometimes you can take a less traditional path and still make it big (i.e., you can still be the best without a college degree).
And then there’s Harvey Specter. There’s this quote of his that’s gone viral: “Life is this, I like this.” It sums up his whole vibe—confident, unapologetic, and all about valuing the moment. It made me think about how we often hesitate in life instead of just going for what we want.
One of my favorite parts of the show was the relationship between Mike and Harvey. Harvey’s tough-love approach really pushed Mike to grow, and it made me appreciate the importance of having someone in your corner who challenges you—someone who acts like a parent, ready to sacrifice everything just to support you.
But it’s not just about the legal stuff. Suits also shows some real ethical dilemmas that lawyers face. It’s surprising to see the characters wrestle with tough choices that have serious consequences. It got me thinking about my own values and how I would handle similar situations. In the process of watching each episode, I even started Googling terms like “what’s a subpoena?”, “Fifth Amendment,” and “can you practice law without a degree?”
It was like at the same time you watch a movie to relax, and you learn something useful and new, so that was a total win-win.
So, would I recommend Suits?
Absolutely! It’s more than just a legal drama; it’s a show that makes you think about your purpose, values, relationships, and the choices we make. Whether you’re a student or just someone looking for a good binge-watch, Suits has a lot to offer. It was entertaining and thought-provoking, and I walked away feeling inspired.
