Tonight October Road reappears on ABC after a new Grey’s Anatomy. Road will finish out its six episode first season next week. Do you think it deserves a shot at a second season? I have now read two different reports on Men in Trees in the past few weeks. One being that the remaining episodes won’t play until next season, which would bring its second season episode total up to 27 from 22. The other being that it will return in May to finish out its first season. I really hope that it comes back in May. The other idea just sounds dumb and will tick off the people that have come to enjoy the show and want to see more episodes sooner rather than later. It just seems odd to me that a network would renew a show as early as they did with Men in Trees and then pull it from the airwaves for such a long period of time. And the Networks wonder why TV ratings keep falling year after year.
