"Suits" has managed to push on despite declining viewer ratings, and the second half of season 6 slated to premiere in January 2017. The show has been renewed for season 7, and now, rumors suggest that it will be the final season of the show, particularly now that actress Gina Torres is no longer a part of it.

Torres departed the show following the season 6A finale, in which her character, Jessica, decided to leave and head for Chicago. Torres' contract had expired, and instead of renewing it to continue portraying her character, she opted to leave, and now, she is set to play a role in "The Catch" on ABC.

Season 7, according to rumors from Fab Newz, is likely going to see fewer episodes compared to previous runs. This would indicate that the show is getting canceled. In retrospect, season 1 had 12 episodes and all seasons that followed had 16. It is possible that season 7 is going to see 12 or even fewer than 10 episodes in its run.

Back in July, series creator Aaron Korsh hinted in an interview with Collider that season 7 could indeed be the last, stating that they had always envisioned to have at least a minimum of 7 seasons before ending the show. It is important to note that he did say "minimum" which could hint that they may be working on more.

It does signify that season 7 would tie up neatly all of the loose plot threads and give the characters a good conclusion just in case the series isn't picked up for seasons 8 and 9. USA Network has yet to confirm if the seventh season is going to be the last one for the show.

Before fans will have to consider bidding farewell to the series, season 6B is still set to premiere on Jan. 25, 2017. The episode title is yet to be released, as well as the air dates for season 6B episodes 12 to 16.
