Derivative of better dramas and bogged down by stilted writing, October Road is proof that perhaps you shouldn't go home again.

October Road: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Hal Boedeker Orlando Sentinel Despite the show's flaws, Prepon is incandescent... She is the main reason to root for October Road. Oct 16, 2019 Full Review October Road: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Linda Stasi New York Post The acting is OK, but not so OK that you can overlook their model-good-looks. I mean, no town can be that full of perfect specimens. But you would have thought Hollywood couldn't be so full of bad writers either. Oct 16, 2019 Full Review October Road: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Robert Bianco USA Today Every line of dialogue adds to your pain. The confessions no one would make, the conversations no one would have, the friendships no one would want, the strained efforts to be clever or arty... It's like water dripping on foreheads. Rated: 1/4 Oct 16, 2019 Full Review October Road: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Robert Abele L.A. Weekly October Road is so checklist-full of dumb plot points, missing pieces and unanswered questions it could be a "What's Wrong With This Picture?" exercise from a puzzle magazine. Oct 16, 2019 Full Review October Road: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Ross Ruediger Bullz-Eye.com It can't be said the show doesn't know what it wants to be. It knows exactly what it is and what it wants to achieve (which in itself makes it something of a success). It's just a matter of whether or not this is your sort of thing. Rated: 3/5 Oct 16, 2019 Full Review October Road: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Sierra Filucci Common Sense Media Although October Road has some witty banter that's well written and sometimes charming, much of it also seems contrived.
