Here’s How To Binge Watch Suits and Fringe Before Meghan Markle Pulls a Princess Grace
It’s official: American actress Meghan Markle is retiring from Hollywood and headed to take her place at Kensington Palace London in the royal family lineup — as the soon-to-be-wife of Prince Harry.
But before Markle hangs up her hat for good as everyone’s favorite paralegal-turned-lawyer on Suits and goes all Cinderella as the millennial princess version of Grace Kelly, there’s still an entire eighth season of Suits airing this January — leaving you plenty of time to catch up and binge watch all 100 previous episodes over the holidays.
Maybe you need a way to pass the time on those long slogs called holiday travel days, or you need a fun way to hibernate from the cold (or from family), or perhaps you need something to keep you awake while you’re already pulling a Santa-style all-nighter to get those presents wrapped.
Whatever the case may be, Meghan Markle — and her amazing, fashionable, take-no-shit on-screen self — is here for you. Much like Markle’s real-life persona, Rachel Zane is a humanitarian (saving an innocent man from death row), a loyal friend, and a journeyman (earning her place and working her way up, rather than just taking a job at daddy’s firm).
Full episodes of the complete Suits season 7 (including the 100th episode, which aired August 29th, 2017) are available to watch on streaming cable or on the Flash version of the show website. If you’re a Suits newbie but have Amazon Prime, you can stream Suits seasons 1 (2011) through 6 (2016) for free through Amazon Video. (Complete seasons and individual episodes are also available to purchase through iTunes.)
Or if your tastes run less corporate-takeover and more trippy, Markle was just as strong and stunning as Officer Amy Jessup in the mind-bending sci-fi series Fringe (with costar Josh Jackson)— also available for digital purchase on iTunes and Amazon Video.
No doubt, much like everyone from the Queen to her corgis, you’ll quickly see why Harry was smitten with Rachel Zane and called Markle his “ideal girl” long before they’d even met in person. Swoon.
