We are back with part 2 of our conversation about season 1 of "Suits" with creator Aaron Korsh, and producing director Kevin Bray. This week, we discuss how Kevin empowered Sarah and Donna, the challenges of making "Suits," Kevin and Aaron's can-opener theories, the story of casting Rachel Zane, and why Sarah almost wasn't cast as Donna.

Mom and Dad are in studio! That's right - this week we have creator Aaron Korsh and producing director Kevin Bray in studio to discuss ALL of season 1 of "Suits!" We cover what the early days of "Suits" felt like, hear Kevin's theory that Harvey wears Ugg boots at home, discuss which magical moments Aaron believes really made "Suits," point out Kevin's special connection with Patrick, and more. Come back next week to hear Aaron and Kevin share their theories on the can-opener, Rachel Zane chemistry reads, and Aaron's initial reaction to the "Suits: LA" pilot.

It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for... we finally take a deep dive into the can opener! We’ve reached the season 1 finale, "Dog Fight." Kevin Bray was back at the helm and Patrick and Sarah are ready to discuss. They play "who said it?" with the best one-liners, and Kiki’s day is made when Sarah casually drops intel about The Devil Wears Prada.  Sarah breaks down one of the greatest scenes of the season for Patrick, and they reminisce about learning the show had earned a second  season!

This week Sarah and Patrick dig into the penultimate episode of season 1 – Rules of the Game – which, lucky for us, includes multiple scenes with everyone’s favorite chaotic duo! Director Mike Smith shares his memories of working with Patrick and Sarah, we debate the correct way to pronounce "mentor," and our hosts share advice they received from veteran actors early in their careers. And on that note, how do we feel about Mike and Donna’s acting skills?  It’s all leading up to the first season finale of Suits!

Theories abound as Sarah and Patrick dive into S1 E10 - The Shelf Life. What kind of favor did Harvey do for a judge? What did Louis say to get clocked by his date? Why didn’t we ever use that building entrance again? They have no idea but the guesses will shock you. They also break down the famous "Life's like this, I like this" Harvey scene and of course discover even more "Rick Should Have Won An Emmy" moments. But first, Patrick gives us an update on his face bump, and Sarah talks about the Herbal Essences commercial that changed her life.
