Our show is a legal show set in the legal world,

New York, the most international city in the world.

I like how it's going.

And, you know, it's really all about the character.

So we do deal with a case each week,

but we're dealing with our maneuvering of how to figure out how to win this case.

And the ensemble that we're working with,

with, you know, the characters of Jessica and Rick and Donna and Rachel and Mike and Harvey,

they're all very unique characters.

And they all work with each other in a way that supports each other.

And at times, you know,

there's contentious battles along the way.

I just think that they're so unique and playful with each other.

There's a lot of wit and great banter and every culture's got that.

So I think there's a lot,

there are certain qualities that are universal as human beings.

And like for my story,

in Suits, it's the fish out of water story.

It's somebody feeling like they're entering into a new world

and they are not entirely comfortable and not entirely in their element

and they have to figure out a way in which to operate and to learn quickly and adapt.

And I think that that's a universal thing.

I think anybody can really relate to that no matter where you're from.

So we're constantly dealing with stories like that throughout the whole show.

So I think that it has broad reach to people.

You know, anyone who's ever felt like they're not entirely comfortable

or have to sort of stand up and rise up to their own potential,

I think could relate to Mike Ross or the show.

For my money, it's really balancing out.

I think the first season has been all about Mike learning from Harvey,

trying to figure out who he's going to be in this environment.

But I think moving forward as the story evolves towards the end of the season,

we're seeing Harvey undergo, I wouldn't say a lot of changes,

but we're seeing behind the armor a little bit with his character.

It's been really fun to be shooting that stuff.

So I think moving into hopefully a second season,

we would see these characters having related to each other a little bit more

and really affected each other and then moving forward from that point.

I think we're definitely who we are,

and there are certain elements of Mike Ross that don't want to become Harvey Specter,

and definitely elements of Harvey Specter that don't want to become Mike Ross.

Don't lie, you want to be Harvey Specter.

A little bit, I mean, just very little.

Everyone wants to be Harvey Specter.

But there are, I don't think it's ever going to be one becomes the other.

I think there are always going to be unique people and move forward into the world that way.

I think there's this harsh,

sort of tough-as-nails quality that Harvey has that Mike needs to sort of bring on,

you know, put into his sort of arsenal as far as the law goes.

And I think, you know,

maybe in his personal life,

Harvey could, you know, take some of the softness and some of the,

you know, the heart that he's got.

And so I think they're sort of two sides of the same cling.

I think there's something interesting about all of the dealings that are being done really are happening outside of the courtroom,

you know, where there are,

you know, the law dramas,

a lot of them are happening in court.

And, you know, we're doing it on the streets of New York.

We're doing it in the conference rooms,

you know, behind closed doors.

I think there's something interesting about that because it lets some of the formality down.

And you see how the maneuvering exists.

Where we as characters are thinking outside the box of how to figure out how to win the case.

And I think both of these guys have a real moral code.

I think it's pretty strict in finding what's right.

And sometimes maybe the means and how they get what's right is not right.

But I think for the most part, there's heart underneath it.

And I think that's pretty universal when people really connect to that.

Yeah, I think it's a show where the procedure is just not the focus.

And you could really, we have an episode coming up that's a mock trial,

and the stakes feel just as real and just as alive in

that episode as they do in an episode with the real trials.

Even though nobody's going to go to jail,

nobody's going to need to pay millions of dollars in some settlement,

and it's still affecting our characters really profoundly,

and therefore the case is just there in order to push these characters forward

and to have us have to deal with new situations that cause us to grow and learn.

I think the main thread of what's so great about the show

and would appeal to really anyone is that it's so character-driven,

and there's such layered, interesting character,

and obviously what Rick has done to create Lewis Lit is something that,

we were talking about it earlier,

No matter where you are,

the UK, Australia, even the States,

you know someone who is damaged or perhaps that people just love to hate.

One of those great characters you see in Mike Ross,

like this drive and watching him acclimate in this world.

And, you know, I think every one of us is bringing something that's really interesting and unique to the role.

And I hope that no matter where people are watching from,

that they are able to either relate to it or to root for us, really.

I think it's a smart recipe, what USA does.

Any of the characters that are involved, they're not perfect people.

And they're easily identifiable with just whoever,

whether it be in Australia or Indochina.

It's like everybody has had,

hopefully, a job where there's a guy that you just want to avoid at all costs.

There's this smart, upstart, paralegal,

gorgeous, really sassy, who you automatically,

100

when you're in the workplace, fall in love with.

101

And then there's Patrick, who pretty much is the audience himself.

102

It's his view of the world.

103

Gabriel, who's like the overconfident,

104

flawed, but, you know, do-gooder.

105

So, I mean, it covers with Jessica being the boss,

106

and then Sarah being the secretary.

107

I mean, it's got...

108

It's amazing.

109

characters

110

that I think the audiences I hope are starting to enjoy

111

I think that's ultimately the recipe my character as the season

112

has gone on it has changed a little bit with Harvey

113

and it's definitely going to change towards the end

114

and almost in a reverse type of fashion for a brief moment

115

but um you know it's two guys who pretty much got their start at the same time and probably

116

close to being smart of one another.

117

But one's just, you know,

118

like everybody has experienced in their own life.

119

Somebody just smoother than you,

120

quicker than you, faster than you.

121

And everybody has had their share of rejection,

122

and that's where this character starts.

123

You know, defeated.

124

And that's then his choice throughout the season of like how does he handle that defeat.

125

Harvey's been defeated, but he handles it in a whole different way.

126

Lewis handles it like he wants to get back at the world,

127

which is the poor choice.

128

Something I definitely, as a person,

129

would never choose to do.

130

A lot of people keep saying that they are the Pam and Jim of Cable,

131

which I'm happy to take.

132

I think what's so funny is Rachel is accustomed to these first-year associates

133

that come in with their larger-than-life ego and in our first episode you see

134

that she is assuming that Mike Gross is that same type of person

135

and very quickly writes him off and I think just as quickly as she does

136

that she realizes that he's different and finds that so refreshing.

137

So, you know, to be able to play with the trajectory of what may or may not happen in their relationship together,

138

friendship or otherwise, has been really fun because she's his confidant

139

and his biggest helper at the firm

140

and yet she's still working on her own stuff to try to work her way up at Pearson Hardman.

141

So it's a lot of fun.

142

I think a lot of shows,

143

unfortunately, I think we're lucky to be on USA.

144

Because I don't know if the show,

145

I mean, I would hope a show like this where it's given a chance to have legs

146

so you get to see the characters develop because it doesn't take a pilot.

147

Otherwise, we just shoot pilots and then that would be that.

148

I think certain networks look at it where it has to

149

be an immediate hit in order for a show to be successful.

150

And I think USA is very smart about their show selections.

151

And if they take on a show,

152

they're going to let it swim for a while.

153

It's the character development as opposed to these one-dimensional characters

154

that walk around and maybe something funny is said and there's a little bit of...

155

Banter, quips or...

156

Yeah, I'm sure all of us can name a bunch of shows like that.

157

And as actors, you're just lucky to get a job,

158

let alone a job that has real substance in their characters.

159

We're extremely lucky.

160

That's why I think this show is separate from others.

161

I mean the writing, the character development obviously,

162

but I think, you know,

163

just, when I saw the pilot after it was shot,

164

I thought it was such a sexy looking show.

165

Like it just felt different and interesting and I hope that that's how it's reading for other viewers.

166

I hope that it's the same feeling that we have when we get the script for the next episode and go,

167

oh my gosh, did you see what happened?

168

Like email Rick immediately.

169

Because it's just as exciting for us.

170

I think whether I was in this show or not,

171

I am a big fan of the show.

172

I think we're just really lucky to be a part of it.

173

True to USA's promise, characters welcome.

174

We have such rich characters on this show that I think they will appeal to everybody.

175

Because we deal with very human situations, although at times heightened.

176

there is someone on this show,

177

if not all the characters on this show,

178

that you can relate to.

179

Yeah.

180

And it's a procedural.

181

You would expect it to be a procedural,

182

because it's a law show,

183

but you do find that it's not heavy on the procedural aspects of things.

184

It's heavy on the people,

185

on the personalities, on the relationships.

186

So I think that's what makes it really fun and sort of for everyone.

187

And it's funny.

188

What I admire about Jessica is that she's so comfortable in her skin.

189

She's so comfortable in her power,

190

which is something that I always aspire to and hope to be.

191

Every morning I think, okay,

192

this is another morning where I can just be me and be the best me that I can be.

193

And Jessica has arrived at a place in her life where she has nothing to prove to anybody

194

except what she chooses to prove to herself on that day.

195

Awesome.

196

I think Donna shares a little bit of that too

197

because she enjoys so much job security as Harvey's lifetime secretary

198

that she's sort of fearless in her life and she loves to have fun and be sassy,

199

but also is an incredibly loyal person and smart and has his back and everybody else's back.

Thank you.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
