Mikes significant other is the bright paralegal Rachel Zane (Meghan Markle), who rises through the ranks.

Then, something unexpected happened: Meghan Markle met a real-life prince.

However, that came with a consequence: She had royal responsibilities and would need to leave the show.

Markles exit had a knock-on effect on Mikes narrative arc, too.

It wasnt only Adams and Markle leaving the show, as Gina Torres departed too.

While Torres appeared as a recurring character in Season 7, she left for good thereafter.

That said, the audiences attachment to Jessica, Rachel, and Mike couldnt be ignored.

They missed these characters and the show was never the same after their departures.

To put it simply: It just wasnt the same.

The departure of big characters hurt the show and it labored through 16 episodes as the ratings plummeted.

An incredible turn of events, considering how much fans wanted to see them together for so long.

When the finale aired, there wasnt a feeling of satisfaction or closure.

Instead, it was more of a case of good riddance the show had overstayed its welcome.

Looking back through the filter of nostalgia, its easy to be deceived and see everything through rose-tinted glasses.

In the case ofSuits, most people remember the early days and the comforting nature of those episodes.

However, this slick show worsened as it went on.
