You know, I gave October Road a valiant effort, but I just couldn’t get into it.

I nearly died when I saw him pull out the hair, then everyone put him on the spot forcing out why he really took the strand of hair. With family like that, who needs enemies, LOL.

I’m SO glad someone finally pointed this out!! I gave it some passing thought, when I first heard OR’s plot. The only difference in the two shows is: 1) Glory Days had Emily VanCamp (yea!)…
as well as some convoluted “mystery” plot. Well, I guess OR is convoluted, too.

october road is a MAJOR copy of glory days.
like everything. read this premise/synopsis of glory days and you’ll be shocked.

“Seven years ago, Mike Dolan (Eddie Cahill) wrote a novel, with characters based on people from his home town of Lake Glory. The novel was a huge success; it made the bestseller list and was turned into a movie. When Mike gets an extreme case of writer’s block, he decides to return to Lake Glory, where he runs into angry townies, determined to see him fail.” (from tv.com)
