October Road Not Without Pot Holes

One season later, October Road is back on the air with higher marks, though the results still leave something to be desired. The shows centers around a writer named Nick (Bryan Greenberg), whose bestseller depicts his home town and friends in an unflattering light. Nick ultimately returns to town to face both his friends and his former lover Hannah (Laura Prepon). With well-rounded characters and a plot running at full steam, October Road has interesting dynamics, but can’t decide where to focus: Nick’s relationship with Hannah or his of friends. Despite Laura Prepon’s best efforts, the latter direction boasts better writing and a more thoughtful story. October Road airs on Thursday on ABC at 9:00 PM.
