'Suits' is suitable...

...for swatting the blues away.

Yeah, I never thought the day would come when I'd be waiting excitedly for the new episode of my fave American TV series since... well, I don't remember when, and I don't remember which either.  It's that long ago!  Perhaps, back in the 'Dynasty', 'Knots Landing''The A-Team', 'MacGyver', 'Airwolf' and 'Star Trek' days.  OK, I gotta admit 'Friends' and 'Will and Grace' made me laugh so hard, they were my "comfort shows" at some point.  Alright, so there was 'Gilmore Girls'... and 'Modern Family' in between, and those are good, too... but they never really made me drop calls. 

And then, 'Suits' of USA Network came along... and TV (in English) makes sense again! :)

The series is both hilarious and kinda intelligent.  Harvey Specter (played by Gabriel Macht), as the ruthless top "closer" of NY is awesome, albeit despicable at times, but never unfunny and always manages to put on the charm... and so is his genius protege, Michael "Mike" Ross (played by Patrick J. Adams) - awesome, I mean.  The two make a handsome pair for wits and style... contrasting in personalities and ways, but they always end up winning (well, almost always) - for better or worse!    
Harvey Specter = clueless?  Nah, not possible... but it is!

This series is so fun... therefore, when the going gets tough, I turn to the Harvey-Mike duo and their cohort for some "flat screen entertainment" that doesn't leave one with an "idiot box" aftertaste - so fun, I tell ya!  But, don't take my word for it... try it! :)

Here's another slice, go ahead, have a taste...

"It's not tennis... it's sports."
And, why didn't that make me go ballistic? 
It's because it came from Mike Ross, that's why!  I = big fan. :)
