USA Network has announced the beginning of the end for White Collar.

Season 6 of this fun drama will premiere on Thursday, November 6 at 9/8c, with USA Network president Chris McCumber releasing an intriguing statement along with the news.

"From its inception, White Collar captured a massive and loyal following, in large part due to the incredible on-screen chemistry between Matt [Bomer] and Tim [DeKay], who deserve credit for one of the most brilliantly performed ‘bromances’ in all of television,” said McCumber.

"The series also benefited from smart writing and an extraordinarily talented supporting cast, who helped it become a fan favorite crime drama for five straight years. This season will not disappoint, with an exciting and shocking ending that fans will never forget."

Shocking you say, huh?

Added series creator Jeff Eastin:

“Saying goodbye toWhite Collar – and Neal and Peter – after six successful seasons is incredibly difficult, but I couldn’t be prouder of what our entire team has accomplished over the last six years,. I’m grateful to FTVS and USA for giving the show a great home, and I can’t wait for fans to see the twists, surprises and phenomenal performances our final season has in store for them."

USA also confirmed that Covert Affairs Season 5 will return at 10/9 on this same date.
