Interesteg What makes it different from others?

Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Gar Conn ...at least a very, very fun show. It's such a shame they canceled. I just happened to give it a try in Netflix, and I got hooked. Bring it back!

lovettstough I like this show and it is strictly a comedy cop show and is even more of a comedy cop show than Lethal Weapon. It come nowhere close to reality and Jim Longworth would never pass as a cop or make it as a cop. Most of the episodes have fairly good plots. I do not know why they call it the Glades though because the majority of the episodes if not all of them happen nowhere near the Florida Everglades. The last episode when it was on Netflix & it looks like browsing ahead on Hulu it is the same shows Jim Longworth getting shot multiple times just before his wedding when he was to marry Callie and that is how the last episode ended. Will somebody please tell me whether or not that is how the whole show ended because if so that is a terrible ending to a television show????????

ElessarAndurilS The Glades was a light-hearted Crime drama about a talented Homicide detective who gets kicked out of Chicago and goes to Florida after a scandal gets him kicked out of Chicago. It is enjoyable in that the detective is obnoxious yet funny, always catches the bad guy, and underneath does the right thing. The series is in the long story about him winning over the wife of a convict with a kid that he falls for in Season 1. The show is entertaining albeit a bit redundant in terms of the weekly shows basically all following the same plot. I enjoyed watching it on Netflix, just wish I had known it ended at season 4 with absolutely no closure. So while the show is good and it appears we are going to get the happy ending a show like this should provide we don't. Obviously the writers thought there was going to be a Season 5 because 4 instead of leaving the happy couple riding off in the sunset happy with dreams fulfilled, we are left with "Jim", the detective, shot twice bleeding out on the floor of the kitchen of the dream house he bought for his bride (the one she wanted since childhood). I knew it was either going to end very good or bad because I didn't know if the writers knew they were writing the series finale. Well, jokes on us poor suckers who watch it because they thought there would be a season 5 to wrap things up and instead we are left with a bride at the alter, the star of the show bleeding out, and the show cancelled. So while liking the show, got shafted on the ending real bad. Really should tell in the synopsis on these old shows if they were allowed to complete or were just cut off and the viewer should prepare to get left hanging. Lightweight show so I have no doubt he would have survived and got the girl, but still stinks.

Mica H I have only watched the first 10 episodes; so there may not be any real spoilers in here, but just in case -- anyone who has never seen the show before, watch it for yourself first before reading on. OK, so on my Amazon Prime (in Germany, which always lags behind US in regards to TV) I found four seasons of The Glades popping up. An IMDb 7.5 rating, plus four seasons, the show MUST be good, right? Well, there is Florida as a back drop. And that's pretty much it. We've all had to grow to the main characters in, e.g., Dexter, Life, Burn Notice -- but at the end of those first seasons you could not imagine anyone else playing Dexter, Det. Crews, or Michael, and their looks really improved over time. This is not the case with The Glades. I thought it might be a lost in translation thing, because I actually have to watch the show in German (Engl audio option missing, thanks Amazon). But now it seems that in English the main actor is even more annoying, and so are the other characters. That whole struggling single mom thing -- but then she goes back and forth between let's be friends and no can do 'cause I'm married and bla bla bla. I mean, really, in what universe would this situation play out this way? Ridiculous. Then, there is the "oh, I heard about you, Mr, in Chicago..!" from anyone he ever seems to encounter. But not much seems to have really happened that could have had a significant influence to how he is doing his job now. Well, except, that his character claims to have been a good detective back in Chicago. I know, it's just TV, but I don't WANT to buy that whole stick the way it is portrayed. It's weird, actually -- even though it is not over-exaggerated, the show and characters do not come across authentic. And, as many have noted, the main character is way too arrogant over nothing.
