Press Release
Today, Nielsen reported that hit series SUITS has set a record as streaming’s most viewed acquired title for a single week ever with over 3 billion viewing minutes for the week of June 26-July 2, 2023. This comes nearly four years after the final episode of the UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, produced series aired on USA Network.
SUITS is currently streaming on both Peacock (S1-S9) and Netflix (S1-S8), where season one has remained in Netflix’s Top 10 Series for 4 weeks and counting. The median viewer age is trending younger than the series’ first run.
The series garnered multiple award nominations and wins including an Imagen Foundation award win for Gina Torres and a Screen Actors Guild Awards nomination for Patrick J. Adams
The nine-season series consists of an ensemble cast featuring Gabriel Macht (“Harvey Specter”), Adams ("Mike Ross"), Rick Hoffman ("Louis Litt”), Torres ("Jessica Pearson”), Sarah Rafferty (“Donna Paulsen”) and Meghan Markle ("Rachel Zane"). In seasons eight Amanda Schull (“Katrine Bennett”), Dulé Hill (“Alex Williams”) and Katherine Heigl (“Samantha Wheeler”) became series regulars. Torres also led spin-off series, PEARSON.
From UCP, SUITS was created and executive produced by Aaron Korsh (“The Deep End”). Doug Liman (“Covert Affairs,” ”The Bourne Trilogy,” “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”), David Bartis (“Covert Affairs,” “The O.C.”) and Gene Klein (“Covert Affairs,”) of Hypnotic, as well as Anton Cropper (“Fairly Legal”), Daniel Arkin (“90210”) and Chris Downey (“King & Maxwell,” “Leverage”) also served as executive producers.
According to Nielsen reporting, Universal Studio Group is responsible for the two most viewed acquired series in a single week with THE OFFICE (Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group) as the number one comedy and SUITS as the number one drama.
