Suits ran for eight seasons on USA Network from 2011 to 2019, with a cast that included Adams, Rafferty, Gabriel Macht, Meghan Markle, Rick Hoffman and Gina Torres.

The series became a runaway hit for Netflix after it released the show in June 2023 and became one of Netflix's most-streamed shows of 2023. In July of that year, Nielsen reported that the drama set a new record as the most-viewed acquired streaming title nearly four years after its series finale after racking up 3 billion viewing minutes within its first week on Netflix.

Its popularity arguably paved the way for an upcoming spinoff series entitled Suits L.A on NBC.

Speaking about the resurgence to PEOPLE in January, Adams said the "second swell" had been "really, really strange" to witness.

"I mean, when you say goodbye to a show and you walk away and it ends and you had your moment, you think that's it," he explained. "It's going to be over and nothing else is going to happen. And you get to just go to the history book."

"It happened. And then it was one week and then it was two weeks and five weeks, and it kept going. And I think we had a twelve-week run at number one," he recalled. "It's just crazy. So we feel very grateful. And I think there's something about the show that clearly continues to speak to people."

Markle, who departed the show after season 7 following her engagement to Prince Harry, also shared her delight at the show’s renaissance in November. When asked by Variety what she thought was behind the “renewed love” for the show, the Duchess of Sussex said, “I have no idea. It was great to work on, such a great cast and crew. We had a really fun time. I was on it for seven seasons, so quite a bit.”

“But it’s hard to find a show you can binge-watch that many episodes of these days, so that could have something to do with it,” she added. “But good shows are everlasting.”

Suits joins shows like Young Sheldon and Grey's Anatomy, which found new viewers through Netflix in 2023. The legal drama is also the latest in a wave of nostalgia-fueled, celebrity-hosted podcasts that include 90210MG, Drama Queens, Office Ladies and Beyond the OC.
