In contrast to serials like one tree hill and others which get too dramatic and too much keeps happening, this was a pleasant change and most definitely a good watch PandoraX Nov 29, Details Edit.

Why isn't that a bad thing? Because when a show is so awful that you have a hard time sticking it out till the end, consistent is the last thing that said show wants to be.
Every once and a while the show would have a good piece of writing, or a tiny sample of good acting. But overall, the show left a lot to be desired! Something that struck me about this show, from the beginning, is that they never failed to have a sappy montage set to folksy music, at the end of every single episode.
I'm not sure what the writers expected this to add. Maybe charm, or that tear jerking feeling everyone gets whenever the song "You'll Be In My Heart" is played while a slide-show of poor, starving orphans is displayed. Whatever the goal, they failed. Because the effect that each montage had on me, was making me want to turn the channel to Two and a Half Men, and I really really hate that show. So, quick sum up: There is nothing about this show that makes it worth watching.
Except, maybe the pizza girl storyline, because that was adorable. A decent premise poorly implemented makingitup 31 March Like another contributor, I'll give shows three shots. Unlike that contributor, the third episode sold me that this show was very much not worth it.
In fact, I deleted the episode with minutes left and deleted it from my recording list. Not all the acting is bad, but everyone manages to deliver at least some lines as if they had never seen them before and with no character interaction. Jay Paulson and Tom Berenger are pretty good, despite having inept lines much of the time.
The show is full of poorly-written dialog, irrelevant subplots, anachronisms, generational confusion somethings have world-wisdom and somethings think like adolescents? On the other hand, if you liked Dawson's Creek, Seventh Heaven and can't miss a minute of American Idol, then you might well enjoy this show, since it seems pitched to that level. If you do enjoy it, and want to see it hang around, you better get your friends to start watching, since its viewership numbers may need some help to see another season.
Taylor07 18 March October Road held my interest, which was surprising since I'm not the demographic they are aiming at. They gave us enough insight into each character to keep us coming back for more. I can't wait for next Thursday evening. But I feel that the writers could have used veteran actor Tom Berenger more. I didn't feel that a 30 second hihowareyou between father and son was believable. That scene should have been a lot longer. There are enough characters, that they could give each one an episode to themselves.
There is so much going on in everyone's lives, that the writers should keep us happy for years to come. I hope that this series is given a chance to bloom. MovieChickie 22 March Oh man, oh man I watched about 10 minutes of this and I knew it was not going to be, you know, good, or even adequate, or even watchable for that matter.
Instead, it lost me. I'm the exact age of these people, and I'm even in a similar situation not the writing about friends thing with my friends from high school and all that, but I couldn't relate at all.
And I get the feeling the whole point of this show is relate-ability, especially to people like me. It missed that mark big time. Also, on "That 70's Show Laura Prepon wasn't a great actress, but that was OK, 'cause it didn't need acting, but whoa!
When her character started speaking, I actually started laughing, her voice was so flat, I can't even pretend to act that bad. Maybe she was just having a bad day. Anyhow, I would not recommend this show, at all, ever. Watch "Raines" instead, it's a much more interesting show, with, like, good writing and acting and characters and all that good stuff a show should have. Space 23 March WRT schoeny99's comments, I have to disagree with the music thing. But, it's entirely relative to personal experience.
Most of my friends and I thrived on classic rock. But I recognize not everyone does that and some only listen to Top 40 pop and rock My high school friends and I were remarkably similar to the October Road group and I think that cast-wise, this show's great. There's always the people who leave town to make something of themselves and have an awkward return. There are those who never leave town Compared to a lot of other shows on television, October Road is a bit more realistic not completely, as prime time television is rarely a mirror of reality and I'm enjoying the direction it's taking.
Looking forward to see where it goes I am not to sure yet, but not too promising leforte 4 April I have watched only two episodes so far and I am not thrilled. I guess the main word here is boring. I was bored to near death watching these two episodes.
Okay, I'm giving it a chance because of Laura Prepon, but that will only go so far. I even have to admit that I am not too thrilled with her acting here either. My daughter is still a teen. She will be an adult soon enough. What my children watch is based on their own ages. If it is older than they are If I have to explain the "meaning" of the show I am the teacher in my home, not the tv.
A must for those who love the 80s The soundtrack is awesome! Lots of 80s hits. This show has a strong cast that can hold it's own. I feel this show has the potential to last several seasons. Storyline is pretty good.
