Promotion on October Road
By fred | August 12, 2007
ABC’s show October Road was voted worst show of the season, before the awful season of 24. That should say it is a pretty bad show, and yeah it’s really not good, but if anyone cares about it, a couple of characters will come back next season for sure - oh yeah, despite all it’s been renewed - as they’ve been promoted to recurring characters.
Executive producer Scott Rosenberg told how he “loves writing for these two“, and now he’ll be able to do it often. Whose two are we talking about here?
“They so capture the voice and spirit of the show. The thought of not being able to write for them sickened me so I called the studio and said, “I want to make them regulars.”” - and Rosenberg had his wish granted.
See, despite not being well received by critics, to say the least, everything goes just fine over in October Road’s world.
Alright, straight to the facts : the two ladies promoted are Hannah’s (Laura Prepon) bartender and best friend Janet, played by Rebecca Field, and “Pizza girl”, played by redhead Lindy Booth and seen previously on The 4400, amongst other shows.
The first will be wooed by high-school beefcake Eddie this year, while “Pizza girl” will lure lovable recluse Physical Phil (Jay Paulson) outside of his house for the first time since 9/11. — Sounds “awesome”, right?
