As previously reported, ABC had planned on running just four of its six episodes of October Road. Though the series shows evidence of losing steam, ABC has changed their plans.
October Road debuted on March 15th to 13.93 million viewers. The second episode dropped 16% and the third dropped to less than 8.3 million. Despite this decline, the series has been attracting a healthy percentage of the desirable 18-49 demographic.
ABC had planned to air only four of the six episodes of October Road this season. If the series was renewed then the remaining two episodes would air as part of season two. ABC has now decided to air the remaining two episodes this season.
October Road will take a one week break while a double dose of sitcom Notes from the Underbelly debuts on April 12th. Underbelly will then move to Wednesday nights beginning April 18th. The two episodes of October Road will air on April 19th and 26th. No word on what will occupy the timeslot after that.
A final decision on an October Road second season will likely be announced in mid-May at the network upfronts. Stay tuned! 
Whats going on with October Road??? Both my husband and I have been waiting for its return. please don’t disappoint your viewers by cancelling the show?

Is this coming back or not? My husband and I FINALLY got a show we could watch together and not fight over the remote and where does the show go? What’s up ABC, are you in the business or television or what? This show is awesome, bring it back! The next day the girls and I would talk about what happen at work.

I really loved October Road. I feel that some of the shows that should have never made it did. For some reason when a really good one doesn’t, it makes me wonder what is going on in some of the minds out there.
PLEASE bring back this one. It’s good wholesome family t.v. time.
I wish October Road would ocme back on, I LOVE it. I was so upset when it just ended with no word of return. PLEASE COME BACK!!!

October Raod is a great show that I got very attached to watching every week. It is now September 2007 and I have yet to hear anything about the show airing again. Please let me know. Don’t get me hooked and leave me hangin.
