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.

Looking forward to the Glades season 2!
Go Glades! I am addicted to this new show. Keep it going, A&E!
This show has it all–intelligence, romance, humor, suspense, and great one liners! Not to mention the great acting and chemistry between all the characters. I am so looking forward to the next season, and excited that this fresh new show has been renewed!
Great Show! Wow.. the target audiance is rather narrow. I too am Way over 49 and I love the show. I missed the last episode and can’t believe you are not airing it again..I don’t want to read accounts and my model t computer won’t let me stream anything…so I am sadly stuck waiting to see Breaking 80….come on..Sigh!
Congratulations A&E…you have a winner here…
I’m so delighted it’s returning!!!
Oh, yes!! And I am over 49 also
Me again….also WAY over 49!
SO HAPPY TO HEAR I CAN LOOK FORWARD TO SEASON TWO. EXCELLENT SHOW ON MANY LEVELS. LOVE IT AND LOVE THE CAST! PLEASE HURRY WITH THE NEW EPISODES!! Sorry for yelling. Very excited!
LOVE THIS SHOW AND SO HAPPY TO HEAR IT’S COMING BACK AND I TOO AM WAY OVER 49 LOL
This is one of my favorite new shows in 2010. Looking forward to the next season
Yo, I have watched the series… I am waiting for new ones, Yummy romantic undercurrent reminds me of The Avengers, except the characters could have “waited longer” to finalize that aspect, then we would have something else to look forward to. Besides Murder! I am not a huge TV viewer, I’d rather look at art or listen to music. Perhaps you can integrate those into plots, I loved the one about horses, another of my fave things. Thanks!
Hearing this show has been renewed for a 2nd season has made my day! Now this is must see TV!
Matt & Kiele sizzle on screen. Can’t wait for season Two!!!
Shades of Sam & Diane and Mattie & David. We watch every week and are WAY over 49 years old!
I love this show. I love how you guys choose a un-known actor, its very creative of you guys. Instead of using that “typical perfect guy with no problems”. I can’t wait for season two!
