Word has come down that, after a less-than-impressive sophomore year in the ratings, ABC has decided to cancel October Road.
The news has been suspected for some time and was cinched by the network’s interest in the U.S. version of Life on Mars. Boston Legal’s creator, David E. Kelley, owns the rights to do a Mars series in the states. He had been committed to write and executive produce the series for ABC but recently decided to bow out. As a result, ABC execs have been hot to sign Road creators Josh Appelbaum, Andre Nemec, and Scott Rosenberg to the new series. They’ve now closed the deal and sealed Road’s fate.
ABC had attempted to find another home for Road but were unsuccessful in finding a buyer.
All 19 produced episodes of October Road have aired. The series finale aired on March 10th but unfortunately didn’t offer viewers any closure. Will we ever know the identity of Sam’s father? Stay tuned! 
Thanks for the answer.. So the epilogue of this really nice show is only 9:53 minutes..? But there were so many ananswered questions, how can they be answered is such a sort time? And you have to buy the whole dvd set in order to watch this or it will be played in the tv like in the channel foxlife that I m already watching the second season right now?
@Spiros: Or you could watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3oyK0IFxFk
October Road…what a lovely show.. pitty that it will not be a season 3.. So people, the finale episode is when eddie is in the hospital, hannah is thowing an angagement party and Nick’s brother kisses Obrey..? It just ends like that or there is a closing episode on the Dvd..?
@Spiros: They filmed an epilogue for the season two dvd set.
This is upsetting this was a very good show. All the good shows are getting cancelled … GRRR
perke fate questo io amo october road vi pregoooooooooooooooooooooo non cancellatelooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
bring it back NOW!! want to know the end
Why do they say not enough ratings I know a lot of people who loved this show my mom and I miss it so much
I’ll never understand why genuinely good shows get pulled, and tripe is still allowed to traverse the airwaves !!!!!….. If any of season 3 has been recorded, put it out on DVD at least !
I loved October Road. Please bring it back. It was the best show.
Please continue with October Road….
Please bring October Road back!!! I don’t think I can stand the possibility of never knowing whats to come with the characters I have come to know and love. I’m really torn apart over this. We viewers deserve some closure!!
just started watching the show, and looked online to see there has been now season 3 this year! im going to wish for the best and hope than something gets sorted out and continue to watch the show considering im still on season 1! just think its a great show, as someone else wrote a show anybody can watch, absolutely gutted it has been cancelled and if its not going to go back on the air i agree bring it out on dvd so atleast fans can find out the whole story!
Love the show I bring it back!
I liked the show. Acting was solid. I’ve seen a lot worse series last a lot longer. Glad to see the closing chapter on the DVD.
First and foremost ya all are making the wrong decision. Instead of the ridiculos reality shows and Jon and Kate plus 8 you get rid of a decent show. Seriously its not very often you get men and women, (husband and wife) to watch shows together. You hit the jackpot with October Road and then pull it away from us. THANKS!!!! Instead your going to show those stupid shows that have no meaning. I wonder about producers! If they would get on with the show and start showing some results to who the father is. Maybe they would see some… Read more »
we miss the show!
