Suits LA
What's the Story?
SUITS LA follows Ted Black (Stephen Amell), who runs a top law firm in Los Angeles. With the reliable Rick (Bryan Greenberg,) the talented Stuart (Josh McDermitt,) and the ambitious Erica (Lex Scott Davis,) these are the top lawyers specializing in criminal and entertainment law. Although he always faces a challenge head on, Ted is also running from a dark past he left behind in New York and troublesome family dynamics. After a sting of betrayals, Ted is left wondering who he can trust in this industry.
Is It Any Good?
This series tries to spice up the typical snoozy legal drama with fast pacing and dialogue, but it doesn't always succeed. Suits LA shines with quick wit, but the narrative can be disjointed at times. The ever-changing character dynamics are intriguing, and fans familiar with the franchise might enjoy it. Despite the language, it could be a suitable watch for families who enjoy this kind of series.
