"Suits" creator Aaron Korsh pulled from his own life when crafting the show, which enjoyed success during its USA Network first run and has been blitzing Netflix this year.
In an interview with Nerdist back in 2014 (when "Suits" was in season 4), Korsh detailed some of his inspirations. He cited a scene in the pilot, where Pearson Hardman junior partner Louis Litt (Rick Hoffman) fires an associate in front of newly-hired protagonist Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams). It turns out that this "associate" was a) actually a mailroom worker, b) in on the act, and c) not truthfully fired. Louis does this trick to put the fear of God (or at least the Sword of Damocles) in the firm's new employees. Korsh got this character-building moment from a fraternity trick back in his college days at the University of Pennsylvania:
"I had a roommate that went to a fraternity. And he...

As we've come to learn in recent years, Netflix viewers will watch pretty much anything. Does that mean that everything trending on the streamer is bad, though? Of course not. Often, something truly deserving of the kind of global attention Netflix can garner ascends to the heights of the most-watched charts, such as when "Arrival" hit the platform and we all took the opportunity to revisit Denis Villeneuve's sleek 2016 sci-fi effort.
While Netflix's top 10 charts were basically invented to distract from the streamer's dodgy viewing metrics, they can at least help us sift through the swamp of "content" in which we find ourselves submerged in 2023. Whatever's on the charts is usually a quick way to avoid doom scrolling the homepage in search of something to watch, and this week, one British time travel murder mystery is offering us a path out of the darkness and into binge-watch-induced euphoria.
