THE GLADES, Behind the Characters
Kiele Sanchez, THE GLADES
Here’s a rundown of the Characters from “The Glades.”
Matt Passmore as Det. Jim Longworth — a homicide detective from Chicago who leaves the city after being shot in the buttocks by his captain, who had wrongfully accused Longworth of having sex with his wife. Using the payout he received from the Chicago PD, Longworth searches for the simple life and moves to the (fictional) resort town of Palm Glade, Florida, joining the local bureau of the FDLE, hoping that the area will help him relax and “work on [his] tan”. Longworth is surprised at the high murder rate in southeastern Florida, making his job there perhaps more stressful than it was in Chicago. His cockiness, annoying self-confidence, dry wit and self-serving humor rubs almost everyone around him the wrong way. Nevertheless, he is very intelligent and solves murders, making him a valuable addition to the FDLE. He has strong feelings for Callie but does not wish to break up her family.
Kiele Sanchez as Callie Cargill — a thirty-something mother who leads a very complicated life. She is a registered nurse simultaneously attending medical school and is completely devoted to her studying and to her 12 year old son, Jeff, whom she has been raising alone since her husband Ray was sent to prison. She is amused and annoyed by Longworth’s pursuit of her, but is also intrigued by him and perhaps interested in a relationship, despite her general dislike of cops. She has mentioned having the desire to leave Ray but does not want to be “that woman” who gives her husband divorce papers while he is in jail.
Carlos Gómez as Dr. Carlos Sanchez — Longworth’s friend and colleague, a forensic pathologist who works the crime lab, supervising toxicology screens and autopsies. Longworth’s persistence and intuition when it comes to crime-solving skills usually bothers him, especially since he often is forced into compromising positions to try and prove one of his partner’s theories. He is also a devoted husband and father.
Uriah Shelton as Jeff Cargill — Callie’s son. He is a smart twelve year old who struggles to reconcile his parents’ odd and up-for-grabs marital status. With his father in prison, Jeff constantly tests his boundaries with his mother. He takes a quick liking to Longworth.
Jordan Wall as Daniel Green — a nerdy 23 year old grad student at Tampa Tech who gets an internship working for Carlos in the medical examiner’s office. His expertise of all things science-related comes in handy in surprising ways for Longworth as he helps him crack cases. Daniel is overzealous in helping Longworth on cases, especially if it means he gets to be involved with other police work that he finds cool and interesting.
Michelle Hurd as Colleen Manus — the smart and tough regional director for the FDLE. She reluctantly hired Jim Longworth and, like Carlos, is frequently annoyed by his antics. Because of Longworth’s track record and rate of closure, she gives him a lot of slack, but she has no problem yanking him back if he gets out of line — which is pretty much an everyday occurrence.
