Warning: The following contains spoilers for Wednesday’s season finale of Suits.
He loves her, he loves her not…
Wednesday’s Season 4 finale of Suits was certainly a rollercoaster ride for fans of Harvey and Donna as he failed to return her affections in the way she wanted, despite his dropping the L-word in the previous episode.
Realizing that Harvey was never going to come around, Donna declared that their arrangement wasn’t working for her anymore and that she’ll now be Louis’ secretary instead. But will the headstrong lawyer just let her go?

To bring out the can opener or not?
An early version of last week’s Suits found would-be couple Harvey and Donna going back to their old celebratory ritual and opening a whole new can of worms — by sleeping together again, executive producer Aaron Korsh tells TVLine.
Instead of the old wahh-chicka-wahh, however, the show’s writers chose to have Harvey tell his secretary that he loves her. Now the question looms: Did he mean it in a romantic sense?

Christian Slater has had a hell of a time trying to get a TV series off the ground, and the worst part of that is that he’s been in some over the last few years that should have been hits. Now USA is on board with his latest shot, Mr. Robot, a show about hackers with Slater in the title role (assuming that remains the title).
Also starring 24‘s Rami Malek, the show centers on a socially-inept hacker who works for a security firm, and the superhacker who recruits him to an underground group.
It’s almost to the point that it becomes depressing trying to sell people on Slater’s shows, but I have a feeling I’m going to like this one as well. I’m hoping the network tie-in will help on that score too, because USA fans seem to believe in the network, and are...
