The Glades (A&E Series)

[Rappy Veteran]

A&E's dramatic series THE GLADES? follows Jim Longworth, an attractive, brilliant, yet hard to get along with homicide detective from Chicago who gets shot by his captain after being wrongfully accused of sleeping with his wife. After being exiled from the department, Longworth relocates to the sleepy, middle of nowhere town of Palm Glade, Florida, where the sunshine and golf are plentiful and crime is seemingly at a minimum. Only this town outside the Florida Everglades isn?t quite as idyllic as he thought, as he finds people keep turning up murdered. Each case pulls Longworth off the golf course and reluctantly into his element as one of the sharpest homicide detectives to wear a badge.

Between practicing his short game, trying to get a date with Callie - a quick-witted, beautiful medical student with a 12 year-old son and a husband in prison - and trying to solve countless homicide cases, Longworth?s transition to his new surroundings is a bit more difficult than expected. He?s realizing the skies in this new town are always sunny...with a chance of homicide.

[Cupcakes]

Same here Rappy! Forgot about this and still need to give it a go to see if it might be somewhat decent. :p I know our standards aren't too high :D.

[Rappy Veteran]

so I just watched it and it's not to bad, the main dude is a bit of an annoying ass at times but his humor isn't that bad and Kiele Sanchez is kinda cute :shifty:

oh right, reality shows the bain of society :p

I liked it. better than Haven, which seems like it wants to be Eureka but fails.

IT feels a bit like The Mentalist, except with an an actual police investigator instead of the ... well mentalist. and I like his humor and better you attitude :) The real test is the second and third episodes anyway, not the pilot. Pilots are always just setups, sometimes better than the rest of the show, sometimes worse. For now though, I'll be watching this. Even if it wasn't the summer lows.

[Rob2687]

Even worse. Celebrity reality shows. :p

[Rappy Veteran]

oh dear the worst of the worst!

@Hawkman I have never seen Eureka, I sense if I did I would hate Haven. So in that case I shall not watch Eureka as I am enjoying Haven :p

[DJD]

Gonna check it out, its not like theres anything else to watch. :pinch:

yeah the way I see it, it's light hearted fun!

[Rappy Veteran]

whoa at the surfing bird chick this week :| a hottie!

[TechFreak:)]

I don't think is the best, but it looks to be a good tv show. Personally, it reminds me of The Mentalist and Dexter.

[DJD]

After watching the first 2 episodes i think it has some potential.

Actually liked it!

:wub:

[Rappy Veteran]

can't beat the mother in law...yet!
