Slightly easier one for today
Stanley Gordon, Charles Van Dyke, Daniel Hardman, Jessica Pearson, Harvey Specter and Louis Litt are all characters to be partners of a law firm that was to be named as per the last names of the partners as a part of the TV series Suits. As the seasons progressed, the name of the firm underwent a lot of changes. The writers made sure that exactly one partner left the firm at the end of a season and a fresh partner joined in at that point in time. At any point in time, there would be exactly 4 partners in the firm. A few facts about the first four seasons are known:
I) Harvey Specter became a partner at the end of season 1 and Louis Litt left the partnership at the end of season 3. These two lawyers were partners for an equal number of seasons.
II) Jessica Pearson was re-appointed as a partner at the beginning of season 4
III) Stanley Gordon became a partner for the first time replacing Daniel Hardman.
IV) The seasons were held back-to-back, were of equal duration and nobody left/joined during a season.
