Suits fans be prepared to get another piece of pie for your wife as the pilot for a spin-off series has been confirmed.
Although the original series by Aaron Korsh ended in 2019, the show reportedly remained as one of the most-watched series of 2023, racking up more than three billion views over seven consecutive weeks.
The hit legal drama was watched for a total of 57.7 billion minutes on Netflix last year, beating The Office's previous record of 57.1 billion minutes, set in 2020.
For those unaware, the USA Network show, which became available on Netflix last year, aired from 2011 to 2019 and centres around college dropout Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), who begins working as a law associate for Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht), despite never attending law school.

On the show's resurgence on Netflix, Patrick J. Adams told E! News: "I'm totally astounded it's found a second life. I feel honoured.
"When you walk away from a show, you think that's it and you're going to move on to something else and just to know that a whole new generation of people are finding it and loving it - loving it almost more than they loved it the first time around, it's incredible."

On top of sharing his appreciation for the new fans, the actor said he would love to see the inside of a courtroom again alongside his cast mates - especially Markle.
Adams said: "I think Meghan is a fantastic actress. We'd be lucky to have her back in the industry."
Discussing the prospect of a spin-off series focusing on the on-screen couple's new life, he said: "Let's go, I'd do it. I'm ready. Mike and Rachel in Seattle."
