There’s good news down in South Florida. A&E has renewed their freshman TV show, The Glades for a second season.
The Glades follows Jim Longworth (Matt Passmore), a Chicago detective moves to South Florida and takes a job with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Other series stars include Kiele Sanchez, Carlos Gomez, Uriah Shelton, Jordan Wall, Michelle Hurd, and Eric Wormsley.
The series has been a solid performer for cable channel A&E since it debuted on June 11th of this year. It’s been averaging more than three million viewers each week with about a third of those in the 18-49 target demographic.
A&E has ordered 13 installments for year two. Pre-production is expected to begin later this year with episodes airing on Sunday nights sometime in 2011. Season one is scheduled to finish airing on October 3rd.
What do you think? Are you glad to hear that the show will be back for season two? Is The Glades worth watching?
Update: Season two is expected to return Summer 2011.

Great Show! I have watched every episode. Jim and Kallie are perfect for each other. Glad they finally got together in the last episode of season 1. When will season 2 be showing? Can’t wait. I love that it is happening in Fl.
The last episode was great. Finally they got together but Im dissapointed to have to wait until next year. At least show reruns.
What a great show! Just love it. I’m older than the ‘target’ audience and I still think Jim Longworth is a hottie!!! Great drama, humor and romance! So glad it’s been renewed.
I LOVE the Glades and Matt Passmore!! Thank you for renewing the show A&E!!
Why is going to take so long to come back on….you wouldn’t think it would be good for business look at “White Collar”and “Justified”. Not interested anymore.
Great show! I’m glad to see it is renewed.

Really enjoy this show, am a faithful watcher and am very glad to see it returning for season two.

You have the right actors for their roles.
Please bring back the re-runs of The Glades until the new season starts. Enjoyed the first season & can’t wait until the second season starts.
LOVE this show!!!!! Finally something worth watching on Sunday night!!!! Was hoping re-runs of the show would continue on Sunday, but tonight it’s a “Paranormal” marathon instead. Boooooo to that!!!! A & E, bring back “The Glades” until the new season starts!!!
