A&E has renewed The Glades for a fourth season. The news was first announced by Glades co-star Jordan Wall with a special video.
While walking down the street, Wall tells Glades fans that he’s wearing a Tampa Tech shirt because his character, nerdy Daniel Green, attends the university and his TV show has just been renewed.
Produced by Fox Television Studios, season three of The Glades averaged 3.01 million viewers and a 0.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic. That represents a 16% increase in viewership over season two.

What do you think? Are you glad to hear that The Glades has been renewed? How many seasons do you think the series should run?
Glade to hear coming back on.
very glad-love the show!
another very good show … each episode is always enjoyable …when will season 4 ‘ air ‘ in USA ???
Glad it was renewed. Good show, good characters. Hope it runs a couple more years at least.
Once in a while I see a comment by Matt Passmore (twitter) on another post. He does so many wonderful things socially. The most recent going to see the Peter Gabriel concert. He also does some cultural things ( I consider that cultural) You go Matt. In a few months you’ll be filming and working your butt off.
Things have quieted down a bit on the posters. I watched my season 1 DVD a couple of wks ago and heard many Jimisms. MP has a really good comedic ability. Favorite was to Mike Ogletree in the pilot: “I hate it here but I might have met someone. She has a kid and a husband in prison but we’ll see how it goes.” Hope in season 4 the writers will use this ability. The guys a versatile actor give him dialogue to work with.
Finally, the news I wanted to hear renewed for 4th season. Love the interaction between Callie and Jim so real. There is enough man stuff to keep my husband interested.
[…] Update: The Glades has been renewed for a fourth season. […]
Glad to hear it is being renewed for fourth season. Cannot wait to see what happens with Jim and Callie..
OMG. Just read some of the weirdest comments on another board. Severe criticism of Callie. They are certainly allowed. Callie bashing is not unique. The choice of language was odd. Never seen it on this board before. Where did it come from. Not something I want to read. Good luck to the cast. Hope they write you all a little better.
I am so glad they are renewing the season. How many seasons wil depend on how they handle the two love birds. If they keep avoiding the relationship, they may as well not create another season for me.
I love The Glades and the cast, but Matt and Kiele are my favorite. I hope to see Jim and Callie will get it right soon, I love them together. The Glades is the only show on A&E that I like and I would to see reruns .
I’m just wondering what took so long for the renewal we all knew it was gonna get picked up, but they made us wait to hear about it for some reason.
They did it last season too. SHRUG
So refreshing…always look forward to this couple..good writing..good acting ..just goes by too fast..one of my favorites…good job all!
The Glades is up there with the Mentalist, Castle, NCSI, Bones..that is to say, very watchable and consistant week after week. Renew.
