Latest episode: still lots of shouting and making up. All very formulaic.

I'm not missing Mike or Princess Rachel, but I'm really struggling with the new characters they've brought in and I'm even finding Louis hard to take at the moment.

Hopefully they're just finding there feet after such an upheaval, but episodes are starting to drag a bit now.

Thank god for Donna!!

Im really missing Mike (yes I know how daft that sounds) . The Mike and Harvey relationship made the programme for me, I'm sticking with it but it just doesn't quite seem the same at the moment, time will tell.

I long for the Jessica, Harvey, Mike and Donna days!

All I want in the latest series is for Lewis (and everyone really) to stop sabotaging themselves by keeping unnecessary secrets. They’re supposed to be smart people, but sadly the writers seem determined to tie themselves in knots to create situations that could be easily avoided. I know it’s only TV and isn’t supposed to be believable, but I’ve really been struggling to go along with some of the plot points this season!

I’m halfway through Season 7, and stopped watching it for a while. I really liked the show but it started to seem like every episode was a repeat of itself. I’ll finish the season, but after reading some of the comments I might give Season 8 a miss.

In American corporate life, how many laws are happily broken with no comeback whatsoever? Something that’s started to stick out is the amount of deals made with “no criminal charges” to be included - is this true to life?

I’m on 3 or 4 now of season 7; I’m enjoying it. i don’t normally like flashback things but this is explaining quite a few things very well and makes a pleasant change.

I'm still enjoying S7, although the showings on Paramount are a bit annoying - missed out last week completely for no reason I could establish, then it's moving to 22.55 from next Tuesday.

I'm glad I don't work in corporate America though, having seen S7E13 last night. Main partner's girlfriend doesn't trust him with his secretary who is now COO, so she tells him to fire her, and he's about to but doesn't, so she figures it out and resigns anyway. Then he dumps the girlfriend (who was a bit annoying tbh) and gets Donna back. Is that really how it works in the US, in a firm of people who, even by American standards, are quite litigious?

Series 9 confirmed to be the last then.

Shame, but inevitable methinks.

It's run it's course really, nothing compared to what it was.

The media are claiming it's been axed 1 year after Megan left. Whilst she was good in it, she was not the main focus of the show!

I noticed the Paramount channel started showing it from S1E1 recently, and I'm hoping that means they are gearing up to show series 8 any time soon.

I'm disappointed that it is finishing, but without the one thing that made it different, it was always going to be hard work to keep up. Now I just need Paramount to show S8 and S9, so I can complete it.

Just been catching up on the new S.8 episodes being added to Netflix.

I'm enjoying them, but I agree it just doesn't have the same appeal anymore, the whole Mike law degree lie was the glue that held it together and made it such addictive viewing for me.

Eugh, S08E13. I barely watched it. It's dragging on, badly.

IMDB has a tab for "season 9", but I though * was the end. Maybe something their system does automatically? Please don't do season 9!

I’ve noticed the level of comedy in the first two episodes seems to have increased markedly.

Be good for them to bow out now, as it’s pretty much just a half decent legal dramedy now, having lost its USP.

Heck. I only noticed last night that the Paramount channel is showing S8. Last night was episode 4, so I've got to hang about now until they re-show from episode 1. Great.

ETA - oh wait, actually I might have seen series 8. Not sure now, some of the summaries in IMDB are quite familiar.

EATA - no, it premiered on Paramount on July 31st. Oh well, I'll just wait for it to re-start.

Well it’s finished.

Disappointing IMO. They crammed everything into the very last episode!

Not watched it yet but got the feeling they were going to.

The last couple have been a bit crammed.
