'Suits' Latest News & Renewal: Show Gets A Season 7, But Will This Be The Final Season?

USA Network has announced that "Suits" is getting a Season 7. The renewal makes the series the longest-running show in the cable channel. But could "Suits" Season 7 actually be its last?

In the current season, lead character Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) is serving a two-year prison sentence for fraud. He falsely represented his clients as a lawyer of the courts, when he didn't even pass the bar exams.

It's still unclear how "Suits" Season 6 will play out and if Mike Ross could still be behind bars by the time this season is done. But series creator Aaron Korsh actually planned for "Suits" to end with Mike's incarceration and this was supposed to happen earlier -- in Season 5.

Korsh admitted that he knows the show will still get one more season after "Suits" Season 6. However, he's quite prepared that "Suits" Season 7 might be the final one. "There is some part of it that feels like it's quietly starting to end itself, and I think everybody sort of feels that," he told The Hollywood Reporter. He doesn't envision "Suits" to be a series that can stay longer on air like "CSI" or "NCIS" in other networks.

Even the show's star, Patrick J. Adams, feels that "Suits" might breathe its last soon, especially if the story has no more room to develop. The actor also acknowledged that ultimately, it's also up to the writers and "how excited they are to keep the story moving along," he said, per Digital Spy.

Meanwhile, "Suits" Season 6 will be running the first half of the season with 10 episodes until September. The back half will air during the mid-season in the spring, but Korsh himself doesn't know what's going to happen. "[The writers] have a ton of ideas for the back six that I don't know what they are yet," he told Fox News.

"Suits" airs every Wednesday at 10 p.m. on USA Network. Aside from Adams, the show also stars Gabriel Macht, Rick Hoffman, Gina Torres, Meghan Markle and Sarah Rafferty.
