What to Know

Critics Consensus

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

Despite the show's flaws, Prepon is incandescent... She is the main reason to root for October Road. Go to Full Review Linda Stasi New York Post 10/16/2019
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. Go to Full Review Robert Bianco USA Today 10/16/2019
1/4
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. Go to Full Review Robert Abele L.A. Weekly 10/16/2019
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. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
