They keep reusing the same goddamn plot over and over
1) Mike and Rachel have romantic conflict
2) Someone almost finds out Mike never went to law school
3) Mike has some moral conflict that prevents him from doing his job
I really hope tonight's episode is a break from this repetitive crap You missed a step 4) Rachel looks hot as hell I can't be the only one that doesn't think Rachel is hot as hell. In fact, her character for me is getting more and more annoying. She's kind of hot, but her annoying character pretty much ruins that. She's kind of hot I guess, but I'll always dislike her because best girl lost.
I miss Jenny.

And Rick Hoffman plays him so well. + Show Spoiler +That bathroom scene with Harvey after he questioned Donna about loving him was so emotional. Just brilliant.

Some of the Suits-Recruits shorts they did with Louis are some of my favorite moments I may have ever witnessed from a television show.

Looks like Louis is going to do something because he is pissed at the whole "I didn't my associate but Harvey just hired one" thing. Seriously if some of the little things would have went the other way Louis wouldn't be in the "conniving opportunist" role. He really is over compensating because it really does seem like he gets the short end of the stick every time and someone else is "favored".

If you guys remember the flash back episode (i think it was that episode) they showed Louis in braces (lol) and he seemed like a genuinely nice, hard working person. With the way he gets shafted all the time he's become quite the asshole, but I can't fault him for it. And even Harvey, who can be a major dick, still thinks Louis is a good lawyer who works his ass off.

Because he's Harvey fucking Specter.
He always gets what he wants but he doesn't have things handed to him on a silver platter. He worked his ass off to get all his success, so there's little resentment from the audience. He's smooth, rich, confident (cocky, but with good reason), good-looking, and every girl wants him and every guy wants to be him.

Agreed. I'm not the hugest fan of Rachel, and not in lust with her either. Donna does it for me though.
Also, I think Louis's character evolution has been my favorite (and the best addressed throughout the series so far), and he's taken me on some of the biggest highs and worst lows emotionally (which is a great thing). I love to love him and love to hate him.

Donna is just amazing. Rachel is ok, she IS very attractive but I agree they have written her personality very meh at times.
Edit: Love Louis's character this episode.

+ Show Spoiler +Agreed. It was pretty much the pick-me-up episode I was looking for. Definitely a different pace. The worst part about it was that Harold got fired x.x poor awkward guy lol.

+ Show Spoiler +What an amazing episode...it's both amazing and a bit disappointing how compelling the relationship between the big lawyers is when the hook to this show was the Mike's fake lawyer situation, which turned out to be one of the least interesting parts of this show. Not much growth for Mike in this one, but the emotional rollercoaster in this episode was insane. Loved it :D

+ Show Spoiler + Mike spent this episode showing that he has "got his shit together". The lack of stupidity from him and actual show of his skill was to show he is now out of the rut that he was previously in and back to being an actual lawyer.

Quite enjoyed this episode, I actually respect Mike more for refusing to vouch for Harold. I really didn't expect that. Also, Rachel's dad is apparently a large black man. Didn't see that one coming either.

Louis best character of the show and the personage has so much potential left/further to go on his journey to total badassitude.

Louis is definitely an interesting character that I can like. Obv not as suave as Harvey but he certainly tries as hard.

Sure I do, Jimmy taught me that.

I like this episode a lot of complex social interaction without a sense of right or wrong.

ooo one of my favorite actor from the wire next week. This episode was a lot better. Glad that they "pulled their shit together".
|
Contrary to most people here I actually liked both last week and this weeks episode. Overall I think you guys are being abit overly critical with last weeks episode, but I do like that they are coming back abit more to that season 1 feel of the cases and the harvey/mike ownage team working together. That was definitely something I missed a little bit so far in season 2 and I do hope they are going to put some form of a 'stand alone' episode with just an interesting case instead of being hold back by developing the entire story.
