After an unplanned hiatus, I’m back writing for The Daily Beast with this look at how USA’s Suits evolved from a half-hour, Entourage-like story into a dark and stylish drama. Stars Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams, along with creator Aaron Korsh, talked with me about how the show — which still seems a unusual fit for USA’s “Blue Skies” lineup — has thrived, how it might end, and whether not-a-real-lawyer Mike will ever be held accountable for his deception.

“Recently, I have started giving some thought to it,” says Korsh, who is currently mulling four different outcomes. “One is the truth comes out and Mike goes to jail. That’s a definite possibility. We’ve at least discussed the possibility of the truth coming out and figuring out a way that he does not go to jail. Another option would be the truth would never come out, and another option would be the truth comes out, he goes to jail and you’re able to move past that.”

I particularly enjoyed Macht’s pitch for how the show could successfully, and logically, navigate the dilemma of Mike’s big lie.
