What This Means For The Suits Franchise
Suits: LA Could Enjoy The Success Of Its Predecessor
Creating a spinoff of any successful series is always a risk, and this is no different. However,there is reason for optimism asSuits: LAlooks to match the success of its sister show. The original series had such a strong storyline and such a diverse cast of characters that it enjoyed a long run. IfSuits: LAnails its casting, and can develop its own unique story that stands alone while paying homage to the original, it has a great chance of being successful.
While the original show itself enjoyed a pretty fitting conclusion, the Suits finale sets up the spinoff by book-ending one story, and setting up a fresh storyline in the same world.
One of the main reasons for the series coming to order was theunexpected revival success ofSuitson streaming platforms Netflix and Peacock. There is clearly the belief thatSuits: LAwill be able to enjoy a similar level of success, andits expected release on Peacockcould give it a similar platform and reach the same audiences. There is also the chance of further spinoffs in the event that this one is successful.
