    ‘Suits: LA’ Spinoff Officially a Go at NBC

    The world of Suits is officially getting larger.

    NBC has given a series order to Suits: LA , a spinoff of/companion show to the former USA Network series-turned-streaming juggernaut. The network has also picked up Grosse Pointe Garden Society , a murder mystery from the team behind Good Girls .

    NBC hasn’t scheduled either show yet, but it’s conceivable they could be ready for the second half of the 2024-25 season . Crime drama The Hunting Party is currently the only midseason scripted series on tap for the network.

    Like its predecessor, Suits: LA comes from creator Aaron Korsh. After Suits became a massive streaming hit last year, Korsh and Universal Studio Group’s UCP, which produced the original series, began developing a second show set in the same world — though not featuring any characters (at least at the outset) from the New York-set Suits . NBC ordered a pilot for the show in February, and it filmed in the spring.

    Suits: LA stars Stephen Amell ( Arrow, Heels ) as Ted Black, a former federal prosecutor from New York who now leads a law firm in Los Angeles. The show’s logline reads, “His firm is at a crisis point, and to survive he must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career. Ted is surrounded by a stellar group of characters who test their loyalties to both Ted and each other while they can’t help but mix their personal and professional lives.”

    The cast also includes Josh McDermitt , Lex Scott Davis and Bryan Greenberg. Korsh will executive produce with David Bartis, Doug Liman and Gene Klein, all of whom were EPs of Suits . Victoria Mahoney directed and serves as an exec producer on the pilot.

    Grosse Pointe Garden Society comes from Universal Television and creators Jenna Bans and Bill Krebs, who collaborated on four seasons of Good Girls at NBC. As with Suits: LA , the show landed a pilot order in February and filmed in the spring. Grosse Pointe Garden Society will follow “four members of a suburban garden club, all from different walks of life, who get caught up in murder and mischief as they struggle to make their conventional lives bloom,” per NBC.

    Brooklyn Nine-Nine alum Melissa Fumero, AnnaSophia Robb, Ben Rappaport, Matthew Davis, Alexander Hodge, Aja Naomi King, Nancy Travis and Felix Avitia star. Bans and Krebs wrote the pilot and executive produce with Casey Kyber of Bans’ Minnesota Logging Company banner. Maggie Kiley directed and exec produced the pilot.
