TV show description:
A teen drama, this TV show is based on the young adult novel by Blake Nelson.
The series focuses on Maddie Graham (Jessica Sula), a teenage girl dealing with addiction. Maddie has a reputation as a party girl who doesn’t think she has a problem — until she’s confronted one day by her school guidance counselor, Cynthia Molina (Alexis Carra). Maddie’s then forced to choose between expulsion and going to rehab for 90 days.
With help from her mother Charlotte (Sharon Leal), Maddie makes the difficult decision to live with other recovering addicts at a sober living facility while facing the daily pressures of her teenage life at school.
Those she lives with include: mysterious bad boy Wes Stewart (Sebastian de Souza); Vern Testaverde (Daniel Franzese), a former go-go boy who gained a lot of weight when he got off cocaine; Maddie’s manic roommate, single mother Trish Tomlinson (Kyla Pratt); and counsellor Craig Weiner.
Episode #10 — (Be)Coming Clean
Maddie completes 30 days at Springtime Meadows, but she’s preoccupied with uncovering the reason someone else left the house. Maddie is hit with painful revelations about Charlotte and Nyla, leaving her world in a tailspin, made even worse by a devastating discovery. Wes tries to fix the sins of his brother, but ends up making a terrible situation worse. Cynthia is distraught after a recent confession does not have its intended effect, and leads to major life changes. Maddie and Wes come clean about their feelings for each other. And in a shocking development, someone suffers a relapse in their fight against addiction. Flashbacks highlight Cynthia’s decision to start a new sober life in California.
First aired: March 29, 2016.

Ugh! I have been waiting and waiting for the new season. I really loved this show and just found out it was cancelled…:(
I wish they had continued it I love show. It would be nice if they brought it back.
I can’t believe you canceled this show! I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and think maybe it could have helped some of our teens to see the real side of drug and alcohol use!
Seems like the shows I actually make it home to watch are all being cancelled!! Recovery Road is an amazing, postive family show. It deals with various of situations that teenagers, parents and other adults face daily. I used to work at an all women rehabilitation facility, so I enjoyed the show. I would love to see what other challenges Maddy face and overcome!
i love this show why i want a season 2!!!!!
I honestly think they should renew RECOVERY ROAD its an amazing and inspiring show , i love it ! I was honestly waiting to see season 2 but it got cancelled , and honestly it should of never been , recovery road needs to be renewed !;( It really changes peoples minds and persoectives , this show really opens your mind and makes you wanting for more !
YES YES YES!!!!!
I really liked this show it reminded me of My SoCalled Life. I wish it will be a season 2 I hate when they cancel shows that “other people” didn’t like. What about us the people here that want the show back. It’s like my other favourite shows they cancelled cause of not having great views. As many likes or we write in about this show or any show I feel like no one listens. Well anyways I hope this show has another chance for season 2.
I really liked this show and think it should get another shot with season 2. I was checking online to find the premiere date for season two and sadly came across this article! Such an interesting show! Really want to see another season!!
