📺 “Suits” Cats, Ballet, Harvey Specter | USA Network

Watched "Suits" Cats, Ballet, Harvey Specter from USA Network
Directed by Emile Levisetti. With Gabriel Macht, Rick Hoffman, Sarah Rafferty, Amanda Schull. Harvey and Louis assess their relationship. Donna doubts Samantha's motives for helping her.
I’ve been enjoying more Harvey/Louis plotlines. I wish there were a bit more Zane interactions which I’ve been missing in the past few episodes. It seems like he’s already been sidelined, and I’m not sure why.

I don’t miss Mike or Rachel as much as I expected I would this season. Harvey has somehow become more vulnerable and moody. I miss his swagger and movie references. He needs a better foil besides just Louis. The Donna relationship keeps changing as if the show is worried that a Sam & Diane (Cheers) will happen and kill the show altogether.

My favorite lately has been the Katrina plotlines. How can you not love her, particularly the way she plays off of Louis. Come on producers, give us more.

Similarly, the Dr. Lipschitz character has become a central and necessary one. Where has he been all this time?!

I thought it might rejuvenate the show a bit to have Katherine Heigl on as Samantha, but neither her character or plotlines are doing much for the show.

Some of the plot has become too generally episodic. We’re definitely missing the old season long pot boilers to help hold things together. If the show continues on past this season, they need to figure out some of the characters and build a better plotline for all of them.

Version 2.0 is merely the name I'm using for all the changes thus far. Since I have decided I'm not going to pursue any further enhancements before releasing a new version, using this issue to track anything left to do before releasing this version as stable.

Then a few years earlier, Weimar era cinema also includes Der Golem (1915), The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920), and later with influences from Louise Brooks lensed through the influential La Invencion De Morel (1940) by Adolfo Caesares.

One of the additional early contemporaneous cultural influences to these that I can think of is the 1917 version of Cleopatra.
