I'm so glad the showrunners don't care about what Suits fandom likes because if they did, I would've stopped watching a long time ago. And I feel that hating Mike seems to be the fandom status quo. I don't get it. I think both Harvey and Mike are dicks, but not enough to stop watching.

I don't like how Harvey's dickishness is bad but Mike's is very called out.

I gave up watching the show a long time ago (after the first season), but I admit that I totally liked Harvey and totally disliked Mike. I think it was because Harvey owned his dickishness. Whereas Mike was a lot whinier and more wishy-washy.

At first I didn't care about Harvey and liked Mike, but toward the middle of the first season it switched around because of what you pointed out. I don't know if it was always there or ramped up, but Mike turned out to be such a wormy hypocrite. I stopped watching partly because of him.

I initially considered Harvey a magnificent bastard along the lines of Louis: someone who's great fun to watch but a terrible person to know. But Harvey turned out to be principled and loyal, while Mike proved to be weak-willed and selfish and hypocritical. No contest as to which of them I ended up preferring in the long run.

And I feel that hating Mike seems to be the fandom status quo.

Considering all the woobie!Mike fic and the fact that Harvey/Mike continues to thrive as the fandom OTP, I really don't see this. (It could be very different in the non-fic writing portions of the fandom, which I'm mostly ignorant of. But in my corner of the fandom, hating Mike is decidedly a minority position.)

Yeah, I thought hating Rachel was the popular fandom opinion. It's only made me love her more! But not Mike/Rachel, kill it with fire.

I'm late, but - this! So very much.

When I was watching, it felt very... forced. Rachel was a wonderful, fascinating person, unless she was interacting with Mike, at which point she became a cardboard cutout of a love interest.

People hate Mike because Mike is awful. You should probably stop watching anyway since you seem awful.

[elaminator]

Had to check imdb to see if the show was back yet. (I'm so out of the loop. Oops.)

I go back and forth on Mike. Sometimes he's more likable than others, but he's always been far from my favorite character and I feel like I'm not as interested in him as I should be.

Harvey I enjoy even when he's a dick, Louis (mostly) as well, but Donna and Jessica are my favorites and enough reason to keep me watching. At least for now.

He is ruining the show for me.

I find the strength of this show is how it makes me care about characters who have done (and often continue to do) some pretty despicable things. I still root for them to become better people, and tune in to find out what happens next.

I don't hate any of the characters, although sometimes they try one's patience. I'm very fond of most of the female characters and like how they're written. I think Mike has been acting really weird since his grandma died but I have hope he'll start making better choices and pull himself out of this horrible spiral.

If they were real people though, y'all know we'd all run in the opposite direction. They'd be dangerous to be around!
