"Suits" Season 6 is expected to bring back some of the show's comedic charms from its previous season. In an interview with Gabriel Macht, the actor told Wetpaint that there will be a balance between serious and playful tones in the upcoming season.
"Maybe we'll see these people smiling a little bit more or well see some more witty banter and more playful elements of the show," he said.
As seen in the latest season of "Suits," Mike (Patrick J. Adams) decided to enter a guilty plea deal in order to save his friends. Little did Mike realize that his actions would also affect the firm.
While "Suits" Season 5 had a serious tone to it after it was revealed that Mike was only posing as a lawyer, Macht promised that the show will be back to its comedic nature in Season 6. However, showrunner Aaron Korsh hinted that things will not exactly be the same when the show returns.
"Nothing is ever going to be the same again," said Korsh.
Korsh told The Hollywood Reporter in an earlier interview that Mike will remain behind bars for quite some time. He also said that "Suits" Season 6 will focus on Mike's journey in prison and dismissed claims that he will be a jailhouse lawyer.
"It's more about him surviving and then he has a turn. There are a few twists and turns," he added.
"Suits" Season 6 is expected to premiere in mid-June 2016 on USA Network.
