October Road

To me, there are many shows and series out there that may start off rather slow and boring. I wasn't crazy about the 1st episode, because I felt it was dragging on and on. However, I tivo'd the other episodes, have watched them,and have LOVED them! It's getting good folks, let's give it a chance to rectify itself! In my opinion, the reviews and negativity you read and watch on TV about things are just so premature. We can say a movie is crap, because it's a movie, as in one, 2 hour time frame, and that's it. Series or TV shows, however, there are more than one. So if the first 1, maybe even 2 or 3 stink, there's still time for recovery! I personally think that given the chance, it will turn out to be a great show that should stick around for a while to come.....

I'm behind you October Road!

Excellent writing, great cast! Lots of chemistry! Wish they hadn't canceled October, too many unanswered questions. They pulled the plug to early on this show.

But if you like the show check out the movie Beautiful Girls, same writer.

I stumbled across October Road after watching Grey's Anatomy last Thursday. The only reason I even glanced twice at the show was because I love Brian Greenberg. I wasn't immediately hooked from the first moment like I was with Grey's Anatomy but it was definitely one of the better pilot episodes that I've seen in my life. I'm going to give it a chance. Plus, it lucked out with that time slot. Being right after Grey's is going to help it a lot I think. I hope that ABC will it give it a chance to grow because the story lines are interesting (even if they have been done before). Everyone wonders if it's possible to really go home again and October Road is attempting to answer that question. Overall, worth the watch and I'm looking forward to seeing where they take it. Plus, the soundtrack was pretty awesome in my opinion.

Why are you guys all hatin' on this show. I mean, it isn't The West Wing or the OC I know, but it's got some really great elements. Love That 70s girl. The plot line can be a bit cheesy at times but the dialogue more than makes up for it. As far as the soundtrack is concerned, I couldn't have made a better mix on iTunes, yeah I said it, ITUNES. I really hope the show goes beyond the initial 6 episode contract. It's witty, similar to the West Wing, with characters that you can really care about. It's intelligent, unlike some of the user comments read earlier.

Keep watching, and if you can't bring the bacon, bring the pig. I'm telling' ya.

I am so sad that I just discovered this show. Sadder part is I'm almost done watching the series!!!! I almost feel like I can relate to everything in this show. I grew up in Massachusetts and even though it really wasn't filmed up there, they nailed every aspect of a New England town! And I sincerely hope that they actually put an ending to the show and not leave me hanging and wondering for the rest of my life what happens! LOL! (Although, in my perfect world, Nick and Hannah Jane would get back together and of course Phil would emerge from the house and live happily ever after with Pizza Girl! HAH!) The actors are great and I just wish I would have discovered it sooner! I've even bought most of the music that has been featured in each episode!!! LOL!!!
