Exclusive: Dave Drops ‘Suits’. UKTV Channel Will NOT Be Picking Up Season 7…
UPDATE: Netflix UK Saves ‘Suits’! Season 7 Available In The UK From Today!
I arrive with some very solemn news. I’ve just been informed by the UKTV Channel Dave that they will NOT be picking up Season 7 of ‘Suits‘…
This news will come as a massive blow to UK fans, as the legal drama has developed a dedicated following this side of the Atlantic. But unfortunately, it seems, not a large enough one for the channel to justify the expense of buying the new season.
The official statement reads “Suits has been an important and much-loved part of Dave’s schedule for a number of years, but as the channel evolves so must its programme offering. We can confirm that Dave will not be renewing its licensing deal for Suits following the sixth season of the show.”
Starring Patrick J. Adams & Gabriel Macht the show’s 6th season shook things up, with Jessica (Gina Torres) leaving Pearson Specter Litt, and Harvey being upped as head of the firm. Mike has completed his jail sentence and is now back with the company, taking over Harvey’s old office. Rachel (Meghan Markle) is now a full-blown lawyer, and this season she might finally get to walk down the aisle with Mike.
It’s a really unfortunate time for ‘Suits’ to be in limbo in the UK. The 7th Season will include the show’s 100th episode, and there is a lot of additional interest in the series due to Meghan Markle’s relationship with Prince Harry.
As yet, we don’t know if ‘Suits‘ will land anywhere else, but as soon as we have news, we’ll let you know.

watched it al on netflix already and its one of the weeker seasons anyway.
it has a rushed wedding and a quick disappearance of mike and rachel patrick j adams is not back for season 8 although wouldn’t be easy for them to find another actress to play the part of rachel and stay?
I agree no reason what so ever to watch Dave now!,
Ridiculous decision. They must have too many viewers for 10year old “have I got news” or some people must need to see mock the week multiple times before they get the jokes!
No reason to tune into Dave anymore only time I put that channel on is when Suits is on
Wow, I had to laugh at this. The show has probably never had as much interest as it has right now in the UK, or in fact, around the world. It continues to be one of the best shows made and I wouldn’t be surprised if it outlives Dave, who is clearly in struggling with decisions like this.
” as the channel evolves”….another statement that says and means absolutely nothing!! ?
Netflix-it’s over to you, don’t let us down!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
“…but as the channel evolves so must its programme offering.”
I’m sure they’ll be keeping their endless reruns of Top Gear though.
I would love for Netflix to get the rights to put up the episodes as it airs in the US but they haven’t even got season 6 yet so doesn’t look likely.
Yeah, Netflix would be my choice as well. It could be they haven’t got season 6 up that due to them having to have a gap between their airing and the UK broadcast. As it’s now without a UK broadcaster, that could change. We’ll have to wait and see.
Damn!! One of the best series going and it’s getting kicked? That’s just so wrong…
Series 7 is on Netflix now
