As fans of The Glades know all too well, the TV series was cancelled by A&E after four seasons, leaving a big unresolved cliffhanger. TV Line’s Matt Mitovich recently asked star Kiele Sanchez for her thoughts.
Since The Glades was cancelled (and no one I know that watched the show can figure why), will it ever come out who shot Jim on his wedding day? –Peggy
Having already asked Matt Passmore for his take, I more recently asked Kiele Sanchez if she knew who gunned down her TV groom. “I actually like to spread the rumor that [Callie’s] son shot Jim. But no, I have no idea who did it,” said the actress, who is now the female lead on DirecTV’s Kingdom (premiering Oct. 8).
Beyond that, Sanchez had no “optimistic news” to offer regarding any follow-up. As for her own Season 5 wish list, she hoped to see Manus’ and Carlos’ home lives explored, as well as see what married life is like for Callie, Jim and “a kid going through the awful teenage years.”
What do you think? How do you think the cliffhanger should have been resolved? Would you liked to have seen Jim and Callie as a married couple?
A&E made a poor decision to end the series this way. I actually yelled at my IPad. Why did you do that, A&E? The shows characters were wonderful. Poor decision A&E. I really want to make a mean comment right now.
I watched all four seasons and loved them. I kept waiting for season 5 to return. And waiting. And waiting. A&E nrefs to at leat do a follow-up to give the fans closure, if nothing else. Where’s THEIR loyalty to the fans? The Glades was a great show, and personally I think Ray’s mom did ir. Lol
I’m so mad…I spent so much time watching all 4 seasons of this show, and loved it, only to see the ending of season 4 and finding out that was the end of the show. What the heck? Couldn’t they have at least brought back a special 1.5 hour show, like Prison Break did, to give answers to some of the unanswered questions? Very disappointed. They spent 4 seasons leading up to this wedding, and the stuff with Ray, only to end it with nothing but questions. A&E needs to do something….I want to know what happened.
I think it was the Witsec guy. His interest in the family just seemed a bit odd as well as I feel his “updates” were just to make sure he wasn’t on his guard. Plus, other than Carlos only he knew where he was. Callie’s mother didn’t know and she probably wasn’t so good at tailing someone that Jim wouldn’t figure it out. Unless he brought Ray out to shoot him which would have been disappointing since he worked so hard just to be able to be with his son not just see him in prison. It seemed to me… Read more »
We just spent this winter watching all of the seasons to find out it was cancelled. Enjoyed the show as much as Longmire so pleas let us know if it is coming back.
Hahaha sadly it happen the same to me. Totally intrigue on what season 5 could have been
I found the sub plots more interesting than the the murder cases….in other words, the more personal interactions and goings-on with Callie and Jim, and Jeff etc. Without those, frankly the series would be a bit tedious. I live in Florida, so I also appreciated the local cinematography…If the series does come back I hope they develop more of the personal interactions between the main characters, because that is the heart of the series.
Callie has moved on, so they can’t continue the show. period
Well in my opinion, Jeff couldn’t have done it as he’d already arrived to the wedding, and Callie would be with him. I like to think Ray’s mom did it, since she was a good shot herself, and was mad at Jim. She was mad because she thought that Jim had broken up her sons family and was making Jeff have to choose between his mom and dad since at 18 he’d have to give one or the other up. The other option for Jeff and her was for Ray to risk his life and leave WitSec and still not… Read more »
It’s so annoying when the big TV execs get together and decide to cancel an awesome show like The Glades. And to add insult to injury, it’s left as a cliffhanger!! I just watched the last episode and almost lost my breath when Jim was shot. Please for goodness sake – BRING THE GLADES BACK!!!!!! THANK YOU.
I just started watching this show on Netflix, and just after I got involved in season one I heard the aweful news about how it “ends” with Jim getting shot on their wedding day!! That’s not fair to the fans! We who love the characters want to see them be a family! And watch more crimes getting solved too. Bring Jim and Callie back! (And don’t break up their family!)
A New but frustrated fan
CAN’T BELIEVE THE SHOW ENDED THAT WAY. BRING IT BACK ! It is a great show made us laugh.
PLEASE BRING THIS SHOW BACK! I REALLY, REALLY hate when writers & producers just cancel a show like they did The Glades & it happens all too often! ALL these actors seemed to be an EXCELLENT fit to the characters they played. The writers, producers, et al, seem to be SO out of touch with what the viewers REALLY want. In our home, we LOVE to *marathon watch* our movies. No commercials, no waiting 4-7 plus months for next season, it’s how MANY if not MOST Americans love to watch their television shows! Producers & writers need to take this… Read more »
I absolutely can’t believe they ended a tv series that way. Rude to the loyal viewers and people who loved it. There has to be a 2 hour season ending at least or another season come on producers don’t be stingy with all your millions of dollars. I also think it was Ray, Rays mom, those are the only 2 I can think off!
I love thiss show! Why do you take the good ones off and leave us with crap????
I am so upset about the cancellation of The Glades on a cliffhanger, so sad for a network to hate its viewers that much
I want to see an ending to The Glades. Loved this show. So psyched to finally see Callie & Jim get married, and then find out exactly what Jeff was up to!!! Come on A & E… 4 seasons of watching invested in this great movie… For nothing!!! Except letdown & pure shock that it was over!!! Unbelievable!!!
