Pearson S1
Missing Suits? This spinoff centres around recently disbarred New York City powerhouse lawyer Jessica Pearson (Gina Torres, reprising her Suits role) as she adjusts to down-and-dirty Chicago politics. Newly appointed as the right-hand fixer for Chicago mayor Bobby Novak (Morgan Spector from The Plot Against America and Homeland), Jessica is quickly embroiled in a crooked and dangerous new world where every action has far-reaching consequences. Jessica must reconcile her unstoppable drive to win with her desire to do the right thing – two things very much at odds in her new world.
Rotten Tomatoes says, “Though Pearson trades the juicy intrigue of Suits for straightforward political drama, it works thanks to Gina Torres’ commanding performance.”
