As expected A&E has cancelled The Glades after four seasons on the air. There won’t be a fifth season or wedding for Jim (Matt Passmore) and Callie (Kiele Sanchez).
The dramedy began in July 2010 and it became their first scripted series to last more than a season. The cancellation comes days after The Glades’ fourth season finale attracted 3.41 million viewers. This was the show’s most-watched episode since the series premiere which drew 3.55 million.
Unfortunately, the fourth season as a whole was down by 14% year-to-year and The Glades was the cable channel’s lowest-rated scripted series. It didn’t help that the show was also produced by Fox, an outside studio, so A&E didn’t have a financial stake in the show’s future.
Of course, the real losers are the fans. The fourth season ended on a cliffhanger with Jim being shot in the chest by an unknown assailant. Hopefully the producers will find a way to give faithful viewers an idea of what might have happened in season five.
What do you think? Are you sorry to hear that The Glades has been cancelled? How would you have resolved the cliffhanger? Should Jim and Callie be together?
WTH!!!! You can’t leave everyone hanging. I was so committed, excited to see how it would end BUT NOT like that it was terrible. At least do 1 more show to end it properly.
WTF
I was so excited to see season five. It’s very disappointing that they cancelled it, but will be great if they could put it back.
At least let us know what happened at end of the glades
OMG!!!! SO FRUSTRATING!! Please at least make a movie to explain what the H *** happened. So loved finding this series on Hulu and, against my number one rule, watched an already known cancelled show. Fell in love with Callie, Jeff, Jim Carlos, Daniel…such great characters and actors. Super bummed. The movie could be them 9 years in the future where Callie was a full blown Physician, Jeff about to leave college, Jim perhaps has a handicap and was forced to retire, Carlos and Daniel are still his buddies and come drink a beer and reminisce from time to time,… Read more »
Absolutely not right!! We need season 5. I have watched the entire series and fell in love with it. PLEASE PLEASE HAVE SEASON 5!!!
It would have been nice if they had one more episode where Jim survived and Callie and Jim got married! What a bummer to end it like that!
I am so upset that The Glades was canceled and especially the way they left it with Jim being shot. What the h___?
What a freaking bummer. I watched the 4 seasons 2022 and was left with a cliffhanger all to find out the series was cancelled. At least they could have ended the series with a season 5. How disappointing and wasted time.
Networks don’t care about fans that watch any
Show for any length of time,watch commercials and be loyal.An ending like this really SUCKS!!!!
PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE Bring Season 5!!!
At least one more season, so we can know what happens to Jim & Callie!
We need a season 5!!
it is very disconcerting that it ended like this in an inconclusive way
My husband and I just went back and watch the full series season not knowing what to expect. We loved it, then then came the last episode of season 4 where Jim gets shot and we have no ending! So very sad. Would have at least like to have seen them so a finale finish before full cancellation.
I hate that the Glades was canceled! It was a very good show with interesting characters.
