Gabriel Macht Interview

The Suits season two finale felt like a game-changer - is the next season something of a reboot?

"Yes and no. Season three, I'll let you know, happens like? three days later than the final episode of season two. So it's not like too many things are actually changing - the momentum of the drama that exists is continuing forward and it's going pretty fast, as far as changes in the team dynamic within the law firm.

"As you probably know, the merger has happened and - as we call it - there's a British Invasion. You're either for that invasion or you're against, and as much as I'm for bringing some terrific British actors into the game, Harvey is against this invasion!

"I love it, because we've got some terrific actors - Conleth Hill and Michelle Fairley and Max Beesley are on board, and we're having a great time on set with all of them. But Harvey is fully against this merger - he wants out.

"I'll give you a tiny little spoiler - Harvey doesn't want to be involved with any of them, so you're going to see him make a play. He is enraged with how Jessica (Gina Torres) has gone behind his back, he's completely cut Mike (Patrick J Adams) off and he's ready to high-tail out of there? I can't believe I just used that word."

"High-tail"?

"Yeah (laughs) - I don't think I've ever used that word before!"

The final season two episodes had Harvey more on the back foot than we're using to seeing - was that fun for you to play?

"Yeah, that's great. I mean, look, for a guy who talks about himself as the best closer in New York, and he's a winner and all of this stuff? what's great about this character is that they set him up to be this smooth criminal who can talk his way out of anything and close every deal...

"But the reality is? you see him losing. He's losing throughout the season, which is great. You see his insecurities come up, he's questioning loyalties around the office and he's got his own ulterior motives - I think it's great to see him unbalanced.

"It's not as challenging to play because I think we're all trying to find our balance throughout our day-to-day interactions with anyone. That's easier to play because we're all connected to that - it's actually harder to play this beefed-up confidence all the time."

Is Harvey's confidence going to take another hit next season, since he's cut off from Jessica and Mike?

"Look, I think some of his confidence is bluster - it's his way to overcompensate for what's going on inside of him. But he's a very ambitious guy and he's not just gonna take a back seat. He makes decisions that could be potential errors of judgement, that take him in different directions."

they were filming in/around my office building a couple of weeks ago. i considered being an extra but didn't have the patience to stick around after work on a friday lol

looking forward to it though.

if anyone is interested, i created a playlist on 8tracks that has all the songs used in the show for seasons 1 and 2.

wish they would kill off Jessica (Gina Torres) or at least replace her, can't stand Gina Torres. Didn't like her on Alias or Firefly either. She is just a very annoying person.

Maybe they can ship her overseas? And we never have to see her again?

Ye, they had the same gap between season 1 and season 2. I hate it when shows do that. Falling Skies does the same, 10 months between seasons.

But see that's problem that is almost unavoidable.

These shows traditionally only have 13 episodes a season. Which I feel is better because it doesn't allow any craptastic filler episodes that shows like Lost were plagued by. With only 13 episodes, it is also easier to show them in one or two segments instead of spreading them out with weeks at a time in between episodes.

As viewers, we tend to complain about any breaks that happen. I'd rather have all the episodes together than have two weeks off here, three weeks off there. That gets ridiculous and even tedious to try and remember when a show will be back.

Actually, I didn't mind how USA use to do their shows. They'd show 6 or 7 episodes in the summer, and then take a 3 month break, show the remaining 6 or 7 episodes and then 6 months later they were back with a new season, but it has been a while since they did that. It was a time before they had all these shows to fill their schedule.

I agree with you that if a show has too many episodes then it can get lost but 13 episodes is not that much and if you look at season 2 story line you could have easily added few more episodes without hurting the show one bit.

The gap between season 2 and 3 wasnt that big actually, it was 5 months. The gap between season 1 and 2 was 9 months. Same with falling skies, it was 10 months. I just think it's a HUGE gap. I wonder if anyone ever counted the number of people dropping shows because of such a long gap.

I definitely would be interested in that number, but with all the new ways to watch episodes, I'm not sure that it matters how many dropped between seasons because of the gap. Anyone can go back and watch episodes they missed when they hear the show returned. If they don't go back, did they really care about the show to begin with or was it casual viewing for the sake of viewing?

I find shows on the 13-16 episode cycle to be of much higher quality than those on the big four networks that have 22-24 episodes. I can live with the long breaks between seasons as long as there's great quality.

You probably have a point here and of course i would prefer shorter seasons that have better quality, it's just sucks that i have to wait so long for the next season :D

'Game of Thrones' Michelle Fairley joins cast of 'Suits'

game-of-thrones-michelle-fairley-joins-cast-of-suits.jpg

From Westeros to the Big Apple, Michelle Fairley is making the transition to a new role in a new setting.

Entertainment Weekly reports that the "Game of Thrones" actress has signed on for a recurring role in the USA Network's legal drama series "Suits" for the upcoming third season.

Series star Gabriel Macht recently leaked Fairley's appearance on the series, dropping hints as to what her and a couple of other UK actors roles will be, including a fellow "Game of Thrones" alum. "As [fans] probably know, the merger has happened and ? as we call it ? there?s a British Invasion," Macht said. "You?re either for that invasion or you?re against, and as much as I'm for bringing some terrific British actors into the game, [my character] is against this invasion! I love it, because we?ve got some terrific actors ? Conleth Hill and Michelle Fairley and Max Beesley are on board, and we?re having a great time on set with all of them."

Fairley and Hill are set to play prospective clients from across the pond that are brought in thanks to the merger which took place in the show's second season. Fairley will portray British entrepreneur Ava Hessington, who seeks out the elite law firm's help when it is struck with a major lawsuit against her family's international oil company.

Keep an eye out for matriarch of Winterfell when the third season of "Suits" premieres on July 16th.

Interesting casting (Y)

They are casting Rachels mum at the moment

I wonder who they will cast for that.

They showed her father but i dont remember, are the parents divorced? They did show the fathers house and everything but never the mother.

      Friday Windows 11 preview builds are here. Insiders in the Experimental (formerly Dev) and Beta Channel can download builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690. My Windows11 device on the Preview Channel just got 26220.8728. My guess is this build is a nightly update from 26220.8690.
    • Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings by Sayan Sen Image by Radik 2707 via Pexels A collaborative study by researchers from several Israeli institutions found that everyday pollution from traffic and industrial activity measurably changed the atmospheric electric field over the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, providing new evidence of how human activity can influence the lower atmosphere. The research was led by Dr. Roy Yaniv of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Gertner Institute at Sheba Medical Center, Dr. Assaf Hochman of the Fredy & Nadine Herrmann Institute of Earth Sciences at the Hebrew University, and Prof. Yoav Yair of Reichman University. The study also involved Itay Froomer, a student from Hadera High School and the Israeli Museum of Medicine and Science (Technoda), who carried out the work as part of the Ministry of Education's 5-unit physics research track. The researchers focused on the atmospheric electric field under fair-weather conditions. Even in the absence of storms, a weak electric field naturally exists between Earth's surface and the atmosphere. One of the main ways scientists measure this field is through the Potential Gradient (PG), which is the inverse of the vertical component of the electric field. PG is a key part of the global electric circuit, a planet-wide system of electrical currents maintained by thunderstorms and electrified clouds around the world. Scientists have long known that the atmospheric electric field can be influenced by factors ranging from large-scale atmospheric processes to local weather conditions such as dust, fog and clouds. Human-made pollution is also known to play a role, but understanding exactly how urban emissions affect the electric field close to the ground has remained an area of ongoing research. To investigate this relationship, the team analyzed measurements from a newly installed electric field mill, an instrument used to continuously monitor the strength of the atmospheric electric field. The instrument was installed at the Center for Technological Education (Roter House) in Holon and became operational in August 2024. It was funded by Israel's Ministry of Education and the Holon municipality. The electric field mill forms part of a broader monitoring network that includes nearby meteorological stations and air-quality monitoring sites. This allowed researchers to compare electric field measurements with detailed weather data and pollution records to better understand what was driving changes in the Potential Gradient. The study focused on two major urban pollutants: fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), both commonly produced by vehicle traffic and industrial activity. PM2.5 refers to microscopic airborne particles small enough to remain suspended in the atmosphere for extended periods, while NOx is a group of gases released during fuel combustion. Researchers examined daily, weekly and seasonal patterns in the atmospheric electric field and compared them with changes in pollutant concentrations. Their analysis revealed a clear relationship between NOx levels and changes in the Potential Gradient, particularly during morning and evening rush hours when traffic emissions were at their highest. “What we observe is a direct physical link between emission peaks and electrical variability,” explained Dr. Roy Yaniv. “NOx reduces atmospheric conductivity very quickly, so the electric field responds almost instantaneously during traffic rush hours.” Atmospheric conductivity describes how easily electrical charges move through the air. According to the researchers, nitrogen oxides rapidly alter this conductivity, causing a near-immediate response in the electric field. PM2.5, however, was associated with a delayed response. The researchers attributed this difference to the particles' longer atmospheric residence time, meaning they remain in the atmosphere for longer periods, as well as their different microphysical interactions with surrounding air and atmospheric components. The study also identified a pronounced "weekend effect." In Israel, traffic volumes and some industrial activity decline significantly on Fridays and Saturdays. During these periods, concentrations of both NOx and PM2.5 dropped, and corresponding changes were observed in the atmospheric electric field. “The weekend signal demonstrates just how sensitive the electric field is to changes in human activity,” the researchers noted. “When emissions decline, the electrical environment adjusts at once, providing a high-resolution indicator of urban atmospheric conditions.” The findings showed that pollution levels can influence not only the chemical composition of the atmosphere but also its electrical properties. Researchers said the results strengthened the case for using atmospheric electricity as an additional tool for environmental monitoring, particularly in densely populated urban areas where anthropogenic, or human-caused, influences are most pronounced. The study also pointed to potential public health applications. By combining air-quality measurements with observations of atmospheric electricity, researchers said they could gain a more complete picture of how urban atmospheric conditions change over time. “Integrating air-quality data with electric-field measurements gives us a clearer picture of how the lower atmosphere evolves moment by moment,” the researchers added. “It’s a framework that can support both scientific insight and practical environmental decision-making.” Beyond the scientific findings, the project highlighted a collaboration between universities, public institutions and secondary education. Researchers said the work demonstrated how students could take part in real-world environmental research while contributing to studies of air quality, atmospheric processes and their potential effects on society.

      We aren't even at the all-star game and Microsoft is talking about an update that will most likely be released during the World Series if not after. A lot can happen in the world between now and the 2026 World Series, including the 2026 FIFA Cup. Tell me about it again after the FIFA Cup is concluded. That should allow plenty of time to prepare for it.
