USA Network has announced the midseason return date for Suits and confirmed the January premiere of its new original series Colony. Both shows are scheduled to air in early 2016, expanding the network’s primetime lineup.
Suits will resume its fifth season, continuing the story of corporate lawyer Harvey Specter and his brilliant associate Mike Ross. The second half of the season is expected to deal with the fallout from Mike’s arrest and the future of Pearson Specter Litt.
Meanwhile, Colony, a science fiction drama from Carlton Cuse and Ryan Condal, stars Josh Holloway and Sarah Wayne Callies. The show is set in a near-future Los Angeles under alien occupation, exploring themes of resistance, survival, and family loyalty.
The debut of Colony marks USA Network’s continued push into high-concept dramas, moving beyond its procedural roots. Early buzz around the series has been strong, with its creators promising a suspenseful and layered narrative.
These scheduling announcements highlight the network’s strategic programming approach, offering a mix of established hits and ambitious new series. With both Suits and Colony, USA aims to deliver gripping stories that appeal to a wide audience.
