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.
Here’s the press release from A&E:

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?
I ADORE “the Glades”. Love the characters and it’s the perfect amount of crime solving for me .. .so many others are so dark and twisted. Discovered this show on Netflix, loved it so much i bought season 3 from itunes and now am impatiently waiting for season 4 !
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHEN THE GLADES SERIES WILL START THIS YEAR HOPE I DIDNT MISS IT WANT TO SEE IF CALLIE WILL SAY TES TO JIM NPLEASE LET ME KNOW
The Glades is one of my favorite shows on TV. Can’t wait for Sunday nights. I like it better than the local tv shows. I wish it was a regular show every week instead of just a summer show and it sure isn’t hard to look at Matt Passmore. I also love the longmire show. Hope they keep renewing both each year.
I was heartsick when I first heard the Glades was being cancelled, so imagine my happiness upon hearing it was being picked up for 2013. The Glades is one of my favorite shows and I never miss an episode.
i have been wondering IF The Glades & Longmire were coming back. i love them both. cant wait.

Love this show…Please keep them on the air.
Love the rapport between Jim, Carlos and Daniel.

Stories are good and the guest stars are awesome…

YEA!!!! SO GLAD GLADES HAS BEEN RENEWED. I THINK IT IS A GOOD CLEAN CUT SHOW AND I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO WATCHING IT EVER SINCE IT STARTED. MATT PASSMORE IS CLEAN SHAVEN NOT GRUBBY LIKE SO MANY OF THE MALE STARS. TO ME THEY LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE A DIRTY FACE. WHAT’S UP WITH THAT? MATT LOOKS LIKE THE BOY NEXT DOOR NOT SOME WHOOAGAN LOL SORRY CAN ‘T SPELL BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
Put The Glades back on for another season, IT IS VERY FUN TO WATCH!
The Glades is as good as the Mentalist, Castle, Bones..that is to say, very watchable and consistent week after week. RENEW, I MISS IT!
I am so glad A&E is bringing it back for a fourth season I love this show keep it going for a long time
I love that the Glades was renewed for 2013 and hope it goes on for years to come. I enjoy the story line, the weekly episodes as well as well as the cast. The writers do a great job each and every week and it is well acted. Keep the show going and going.
I am thrilled that the glades is returning. I love Matt’s wit. He is serious but funny. Love it – love it – love it. Can’t wait for season 4.
As a native Floridian, I enjoy seeing my state portrayed as something other than a bastion for drug lords and mob hits. I particularly like The Glades because of the diversity of the stories and locales, from the sugar cane country of Pahokee to Cassadega to the horse farms of Ocala and the Space Coast, I’ve seen a little bit of everything on The Glades, and that’s been fun. I hope that continues. The cast is likeable, but please bring back Taylor Cole!
I absolutely love the glades. I am thrilled they are coming back. I love the cast and truly hope we don’t lose callie
