USA's "Suits" is gearing up for another season.
The cable network has renewed the legal drama for a fifth season, which will consist of 16 episodes set to premiere next summer, Entertainment Weekly reported.
"Suits continues to fire on all cylinders, delivering provocative storytelling and complex characters that viewers can't get enough of," Chris McCumber, President of USA Network, said in a statement. "With some of the best writing on television, and a brilliant ensemble cast, we anticipate a spectacular fifth season for a series that has become a marquee property for USA."
Season four of "Suits" averaged about four million viewers per week, including DVR playback - making it the most-watched scripted shows on a cable network. The midseason finale will air on August 20, but the dates of the final six episodes have yet to be scheduled.
The current season included a big plot shift at the firm when Mike, played by Patrick J. Adams, temporarily left Pearson Specter to head to Wall Street as an investment banker. His return to Pearson Specter is now causing controversy among the other partners.
The show was created by Aaron Korsh and also stars Gabriel Macht, Rick Hoffman, Gina Torres, Sarah Rafferty and Meghan Markle. The first three seasons of the show are available on Amazon Prime.
"Suits" airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on USA.
