USA Announces Summer Premiere Dates for 'Royal Pains,' 'Covert Affairs,' 'Suits,' 'Graceland,' 'Rush' & 'Satisfaction'

USA is shaking up its summer schedule - with four returning series moving to brand new time slots as well as the addition of two new dramas - Rush starring Tom Ellis and Satisfaction starring Matt Passmore - which will be paired together instead of relying on established hits to launch new shows.





The cable network will kick off its summer with the sixth season premiere of Royal Pains on Tuesday, June 10 at 9/8c. The medical drama will be paired with the fifth season of spy drama Covert Affairs - which will launch its new season on June 24 at 10/9c.

Legal drama Suits will return for its fourth season on Wednesday, June 11 at 9/8c. - away from the Tuesday or Thursday slot it aired in during its third season. It will be paired with the second season of drama Graceland - which will also premiere on June 11 at 10/9c.

Rush and Satisfaction (formerly Untitled Sean Jablonski) will premiere on Thursday, July 17, airing at 9/8c. and 10/9c. respectively. Rush, from writer-director Jonathan Levine, examines the world of renegade physician Dr. William Rush (Ellis), a medical fixer who privately caters to LA's elite. Satisfaction stars Passmore and Stephanie Szostak as a modern couple whose marriage is at its breaking point.
