It’s interesting to think about how many people know these 20 fun facts about the show “Suits”. How many do you know?
The show was filmed in Toronto
The story is set in NYC, but only the pilot was filmed there apparently. Hey, as long as it looks somewhat accurate.
Gabriel Macht and Sarah Rafferty have been good friends for years
It feels as though the show might work better with people who know how to react to each other. At least, that’s a theory.
Gabriel was inspired by “Who’s Line Is It Anyway?”
That’s an odd show to be inspired by, but in terms of wit it’s not the worst. Plus, it does offer a lot of comic material to build from.
The actor who plays Professor Gerard is Gabriel Macht’s real father
How many people knew this? Probably a lot of people who read the credits, just a hunch.
A few of the prints seen on the wall were created by Patrick J. Adams
Obviously Patrick is a little more talented than people realize. There are lot of fun facts like this to be discovered.
The names associated with the law firm came from the producers
Honestly, why not use what you’ve got? This makes a lot more sense than some might think.
One of the guest stars is married to Gabriel Macht
It doesn’t sound too surprising that the stars would want to give people close to them a chance. Thankfully it didn’t backfire.
The foul language in the show has increased throughout each season
It started out tentatively, but as the seasons kept coming more and more swear words found their way into the script. This does add emotional content when used correctly.
Michael Phelps and Charles Barkley love the show
This is the kind of endorsement that a lot of shows love. Famous people loving the show gives it a big shot in the arm.
The show uses sets that were used in “White Collar”
If you ever wondered whether old sets get used again, this answers that. Waste not, want not.
The building used for the law firm was utilized in “Orphan Black”
Even sets that aren’t as controlled are often used multiple times. Might as well.
This show was rated second to “Game of Thrones” by BuddyTV
I mean, you couldn’t really top GoT at one point. Coming in second wasn’t a shame.
There’s a flashback episode in every season except the first one
This does make sense considering that the first season had to prove that the show was worthwhile. After that, anything was up for grabs.
Meghan Markle wouldn’t film certain scenes
There were a couple of scenes that featured her in a towel. She was against it, end of story.
There are many “Games of Thrones” references
At some point this became common for a lot of TV shows. It was such an easy show to reference.
This is the last acting role of Meghan Markle as of 2018
People should be able to recognize why. Her life took on a very different trajectory.
There are a lot of pop culture references in this show
This is a common staple of many shows since referencing other movies and shows is fun. It gives depth to the content and makes it clear that it exists in its own world.
Several of the cast members have appeared in other shows with each other
This is bound to happen when people grow comfortable working with each other. There’s also the likelihood that several people worked together before coming to Suits.
Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams have both had their directorial debuts with this show
At one point or another, a lot of actors attempt to direct an episode or a show. It feels like a rite of passage.
Gabriel’s last name means “power” in Dutch and German
Everyone’s name means something, in theory. This is something that means something to a lot of people but not much to others.
