Gabriel Macht said Monday on 'Today' (weekdays, 7AM on NBC) that he is nothing like the ruthless lawyer he plays on the new USA Network series 'Suits.' Macht's co-star, Patrick J. Adams, said he has more in common with his character, at least in terms of recall. Adams plays a young lawyer with a photographic memory, and Adams said he has managed to learn a lot of complicated legal jargon for the role.

Whatever their differences, 'Today' host Tamron Hall feels they both look good in suits, which is probably at least partly why both landed their respective roles. "You're rocking the look, though, because you guys wear beautiful suits there," said Hall. "And now, Gabriel, you look hot. I'm just complimenting."

Gabriel Macht, known to many for his role in 'The Spirit,' is getting a very 'Legal' state of mind.

Macht has joined the cast of USA Network's new procedural, 'A Legal Mind.' According to Ausiello Files, Macht will play Harvey, a successful attorney at a well-respected Manhattan law firm. Macht's character hires Mike (Patrick J. Adams), a slacker -- yet smart -- college kid who doesn't have a law degree.

The pilot episode was written by Aaron Krosh ('The Deep End'). Krosh will serve as an executive producer along with Doug Liman, Gene Klein and David Bartis.

And in other TV news today ...

The Hollywood Reporter has an interesting story about the five "hottest" television actors who are looking for plum roles. And by "hottest", the publication means they're most in demand (plus, they're good-looking).

The five actors that all the networks are trying to scoop up are: Jeremy Sisto, Paul Rudd, Peter Krause, Simon Baker and Gabriel Macht. Honorable mentions include Christian Slater, Steve Zahn, and Michael Vartan, who just took a role in an untitled ABC drama. A look at their profiles on IMDB show that most of these guys (except Slater & Zahn) currently have a break in their schedules.
