Overview

  • 'Suits: LA,' a spin-off of the popular 'Suits' series, was canceled after one season due to underwhelming ratings and lack of growth potential.
  • The show averaged just 2.1 million viewers per episode, falling short of expectations sparked by the original show's Netflix resurgence.
  • NBCUniversal President Jeff Bader cited the show's failure to resonate with audiences and its limited future prospects as key reasons for the decision.
  • NBC considered relocating the canceled series to Peacock but ultimately opted against it for 'Suits: LA' and other recently dropped shows.
  • The cancellation aligns with NBC's broader strategy to prioritize live sports, including NBA games, in its upcoming fall 2025 schedule.
