The final season of "White Collar" kicks off Thursday, Nov. 6, USA announced. Network president Chris McCumber also dished to Entertainment Weekly about the series finale and said fans should prepare for a surprise ending.

"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," McCumber said. "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."

The last six episodes of "White Collar" will be paired with the second half of "Covert Affair's" fifth season, EW reports. The show, which follows Neal Caffrey (Bomer), a highly intelligent and multi-talented con artist turned FBI informant for Peter Burke (DeKay), wrapped filming at the end of July.

"Saying goodbye to 'White 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," show creator Jeff Eastin added. "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."

The network also released an official description for the final episodes: "The thrilling final season picks up on last season's cliffhanger, when Caffrey has disappeared, sans ankle bracelet. Personal transitions and returning enemies complicate things when Caffrey and Agent Burke are pitted against the most sough-after network of criminals in the world, the Pink Panthers. With the help of Mozzie (Garson) and FBI agents, Barrigan and Jones, they will attempt to infiltrate and bring down the infamous criminal ring."

Ross McCall, Gavin Lee, Bridget Regan, Toby Leonard Moore, Paloma Guzman, Michael Potts, Isaach de Bankole and Diahann Carroll will guest star.
