OMG – I can not believe ABC – they cancel all the great shows – who the heck are they asking?? I loved Ocotober Road!! ABC cancelled Boston Legal, Men in Trees, What About Brian, Eli Stone, the list goes on & on – such amazing shows, but ABC will not leave things in a time slot long enough to get a huge following – I’m so disappointed!!!!

Special thanks to flagirl13 for setting up the following event.

WELCOME ROADIES, OCTOBER ROAD FANS, GROUPIES OR ANYONE INTERESTED IN “WHAT GOES ON”, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO JOIN US.

We are having our First Annual October Road Reunion January 17th, 18th and 19th (Monday-Martin Luther King Day), for those of us that have that day off, it will give us an extra day to write letters.

Please spread the word to everyone so they may join us.

Please feel free to comment, to share, to eat and be merry. Sully’s will be open for refreshments and wings (among other things). Maybe, we will run into Eddie and Janet, Nick or Hannah, Pizza Girl, Ikey or Owen or all of the above.

We want to show ABC how committed we are to this TV show and that we are not going anywhere. So let’s shut this message board down from being overloaded because of all the activity this weekend. We can do it.

Snippity-lou to all of you until then and remember to spread the WORD.

October Road

Another miserable decision on the part of programers and schedulers of ABC… Cancel October Road, yet keep the trash shows that “Numbs the Masses”…. ABC, you and the other Networks have created a situation where from a viewers perspective, it does not make sense to tune into your shows… they just develope and they are cancelled the following season…. is all of Hollywood high? Seriously, … CBS has lost my commitment because they canel any show of quality….. is ABC next on the cutting block? Don’t dissapoint us by cancelling Life on Mars or your following may one day completely boycot you and the rest!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Loved October Road. A great cast, a very good story line. What happened? The netwlorks keep some of the worst shows on and get rid the really good shows, like October Road. I’m really sad about the lose of a terrific show.

ok… first, they cancelled “what about brian” now “october road”?

c’mon! can’t you guys see the potential of a good show? a good show is something real and something that people can relate to, like really relate…

yeah, kyle xy and chuck is good and all, but these shows (october road and what about brian), it’s about real people. not someone who has the government secretts in his brain and not someone who can jump through roofs or memorize the encyclopedia…

this is real life, people who screw up and not all gets the chance of redemption…

im really gonna miss the show and the characters that ive come to love…

to the creators of October Road, THANK YOU so much for coming up to a show like this, i am really really looking forward to seeing how this all ends…

My lady and I really enjoyed October Road from the start. We were big Laura Prepon fans from That 70’s Show. The characters were so unique and engaging, and the storyline was relateable. We hoped the show would continue thru the rough times ,(Cheers started off dead last) until viewers could catch up with all the time changes, and become fans .
Does ABC have five million or so fans they care to alienate ? This feels like having a wounderful picnic planned for weeks and someone cancels it two days in advance because it might rain. What if it doesn’t ? Sometimes you gotta have faith.

I am so upset right now. I just found out that the show was officially cancelled…I assumed it was coming back midseason Anyway, I cannot believe it’s gone as it was one of the best shows to come along in a while. Ya know not all of us love reality shows and doctor dramas.
I agree with the others about this is why I don’t get into new shows…I am constantly being left hanging. It was the same with “The Class” it was hillarious and freakin won the People’s Choice for best new comedy and yet it was cancelled after only one season. Bad decision cancelling October Road…I will miss you!

First of all I loved the show it was great….the story line was perfect. I think the down fall to it was the strike and the fact that it kept switching nights and times.
I really am looking foward to season 2 coming out and the ending.

I can’t wait! I have been looking forward to these 15 minutes for so long. October Road was my favorite show. Nothing comes close to it. The characters were warm and wonderful. I wish we could get another season some way. I think ABC, at a minimum, should help sponsor the finale. If people believed the network really cared about the viewers by not leaving shows unresolved people would be more willing to tune in to their new shows. Now I am hesitant. To ABC’s credit they have left the October Road message board up on their site for the fans.

I love the actors on this show. I will follow them to their new projects. I can’t wait to see what Rebecca Field will be doing next. I see she will on the first episode of the Dollhouse. I will tune in for that. I think they should make her a regular.

Thank you October Road creators. You are the best! I look forward to the final. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
