Malpractice suit

"Suits" has lost its princess — and its sense of fun. The long-running lawyers-in-love series hopes to carry on without lead actor Patrick J.

Judging from the first two episodes of Season 8, the would-be rom-com queen fails to click as a tough cookie; she's more a candied apple. The former "Grey's Anatomy" star isn't helped by the writers, who may still be drunk from Markle's nuptials. Time to put this "Suit" in storage.
