It's refreshing. So often on TV -- shows like Psych, House and White Collar come immediately to mind -- the hero bests everyone using his unique skills. Everyone else just tries to keep up. In Suits, everybody is running at the same speed: lawyers outwit the opposition, the paralegal performs key research and even the secretary cracks the best jokes.
Although Suits has its serious moments, the two leads' banter and the interactions between all of the characters keep the tone light and the pace quick. The result is an excellent summer show and -- more than that -- a truly high-quality piece of television.
