The Glades

The Glades is one of those easy-going shows that grows on you. It was cancelled not by low ratings or lack of fans, but because A&E wanted to own their IP's and keep their costs low with reality shows like Duck Dinasty and Storage Wars. I mean, this is a procedural show with excellent reviews, and the most-watched and highest-rated original drama series at A&E. Sadly, Netflix wasn't into buying-producing original series back in 2013 as much as they are (Longmire had less audience than The Glades when it was also cancelled by A&E and renewed by Netflix). Matt Passmore was at his very best in the last season, full of charm and totally owning his character, and it was funny to watch how the Gateway, Microsoft, Kia and Dodge Charger infomercials used to blend-in into the plot. I've missed this show, and I do have a solid theory about who was the shooter, among the ton of enemies Jim made along four seasons (spoiler: it was Ray's Mom). I haven't seen A&E in a while since The Glades and Longmire were axed... has anyone?.
