Suits LA looks a lot more like the original show than Pearson
Pearson was a political drama with Jessica in Chicago
Talking to electronic warfare on LA Suitsseries creator Aaron Korsh, who was also behind Suits and Pearsoncommented on the mistakes made in the first spinoff of the franchise. According to Korsh, Pearson didn't embrace the similarities to the original showwhat it was “a conscious decision” it wasn't worth it. Pearson was made to be different from Suitswith Jessica's show being more of a political drama rather than a legal procedural. However, as Korsh noted, Suits fans weren't ready for this change in tone.
Korsh described Pearson as “darker” what Suits and “not so funny,” which made it a tough sell to fans of the original show. LA Suitson the other hand, he is trying to recover what he did Suits so good.

Suits LA should still do more than repeat the original show
Suits LA must have its own identity
While LA Suits being more similar Suits It's good newsEspecially considering it's been more than five years since the streaming sensation ended its original run, the new spinoff series should do more than repeat the original show. Characters like Harvey Specter and Mike Ross are incredibly popular, and while it's fun to see Harvey in LA Suitsthe spinoff should have more to offer than that.
Suits it had a very particular dynamic based on the fact that Harvey and Mike were extraordinary characters in the truest sense of the word. The dynamics between Suits'main characters is also incredibly difficult to replicate, as it developed naturally over nine seasons. Suits'sharp humor and quick dialogue are elements that LA Suits should include, but the new series must find its own identity and let the new characters shine.
