The highly anticipated "Suits" spinoff is almost here.
Much like the original series "Suits," which debuted in 2011 on USA and finished in 2019, "Suits LA" will be full of legal drama, rivalries and romance when it premieres this month.
The spinoff was announced following a resurgence in popularity when "Suits" landed on Netflix in the summer of 2023 and broke streaming records.
TODAY exclusively debuted a new trailer for the new series in January, which takes place in Los Angeles and follows a former federal prosecutor who relocates to the West Coast after leaving New York.
Stephen Amell plays Ted Black, a lawyer and co-founder of an up-and-coming LA law firm with powerful entertainment clients.
"Suits LA" may be in a new town with a whole new cast of characters, but it's sure to delight fans of the original series, especially since "Suits" creator Aaron Korsh serves as a writer and executive producer on the new series.
Gabriel Macht, who played defense attorney Harvey Specter in the original "Suits," also reprises his role for a cameo in the spinoff.
Whether you’re already a fan of the "Suits" universe or you're just tuning in, here's everything you need to know to watch the premiere of "Suits LA."

Each episode will be available to stream on Peacock the day after it airs.
(NBC and Peacock are owned by NBCUniversal, TODAY’s parent company.)
What else to know about 'Suits LA'
The first season of "Suits LA" will feature a total of 10 episodes. Per NBC, the series follows Ted Black (Amell) as his law firm faces a "crisis point." To survive, he "must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career."
Along the way, viewers will learn about the “events that years ago led Ted to leave behind everything and everyone he loved.”
Meanwhile, Ted's team will "test their loyalties to both Ted and each other" and "mix their personal and professional lives."
In addition to Amell, the cast includes Lex Scott Davis, Josh McDermitt and Bryan Greenberg.
While speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Greenberg recently compared "Suits LA" to several other popular TV series.
“It’s like 'Entourage,'" he said. “Not like the party stuff of 'Entourage,' but the dealmaking of 'Entourage' meets the world and the tone of 'Suits.' And there’s a little 'Mad Men' office politics in there. It’s cool.”
Showrunner Korsh also said the show compares to "Entourage" since celebrities will make guest appearances as themselves.
“These are entertainment lawyers, so they have entertainment clients,” he said. “And much of the time, those clients will be real actors playing versions of themselves. A large part of the fun of the show is seeing real actors play versions of themselves and give you a peek behind the curtain into what life is like for people struggling to make it in our industry. Sometimes their cases will be silly, and sometimes they’ll be serious. Usually, there’ll be an emotional component underlying the case.”
How to watch the original 'Suits'
