White Collar - Netflix - the next Suits?

I started watching this last night. I only watched about 30 minutes of it.. not that it was bad or anything, I just fell asleep
But as I was watching this, I kept saying to myself that the show feels like I am watching a Suits knockoff
Anybody think this could be a show to get into? I see there are 6 seasons available

White Collar premiered 2 years before Suits.

That... and it's literally nothing like Suits.

WC is better than Suits & nothing like it.
It has Tiffani Thiessen & Alexandra Daddario.

I understand it is nothing like suits as far as the storyline goes
It just felt like it was produced like suits.. a little cheesy but a little edgy.. can’t really explain it

They were both USA shows originally. All their shows from around that time had a similar feel

That explains it! Did not know that
I feel like the main dude acts exactly like Mike Ross who I could not stand in Suits so I probably won’t be lasting much longer on this show

That would be a mistake.

Isn’t the main actor gay?

Well, they WORE suits, so it's exactly like it.

And that's relevant... how ?
Matt Bomer is gay, I think, but his character was a criminal and I don't think his sexuality was ever an issue. If it was, I never saw it in the show.

It’s hard to take him seriously as a ladies man if I know he smokes pole.

All pretty much the same tone. Was going to put Burn Notice on there too, but that's kind of a different animal. Probably my favorite to rewatch though.

You left off some of the better USA shows from that era:
Psych
Monk
Burn Notice
To the OP, these USA shows were all great Popcorn TV. If you're looking for Prestige Cable that's going to make you binge for 4 days straight, look elsewhere. If you want to relax and enjoy some casual viewing on the couch, you now have a solid list of shows to watch from this thread.

Great show. Think of it like if Catch Me If You Can had a sequel about Abignale working with the govt after he was caught.

Thank you.
I feel the same way about Doogie in HIMYM. Once the horse has left the barn, there is no pretending.

White Collar actually kept its charm through it's run, is a buddy cop/heist show, and never really loses its focus on the main character throughout the series.
Mix that with it also premiered before Suits and you have a recipe for a bad OP.
