Thread: Haven

Horrible show!!! Boring, slow, nothing going for it at all. But watch, they'll say it's a hit and renew it in about a week.

I watched it and did not get it. They did not really introduce many plot lines to make it interesting. I will give it a few more episodes to see if anything interesting happens.

Well it certainly wasn't a "haven" for good sci fi tv.

After reading all the negative comments for the show, I wasn't optimistic, but I found that all the criticisms were unfounded - the show was excellent - exactly what my wife and I enjoy. We thought it was a great mix of mystery and humor. (I was rolling on the floor when Parker said, "What am I going to do? Pull out another gun?" ) I thought that Agent Parker would be a bit much for Emily Rose to pull off, but she was actually very good.

I'm sorry that so many other folks didn't get it. Hopefully, enough of the rest of us do that it'll survive a long time.

Hey I 'll still watch it . There is nothing else on in the summer and it is new stuff, even if it isn't that good.

Watched it, wasn't too great, but wasn't too bad.
Question is on how they sustain it going forward. The next couple episodes should show how good it'll be.

Did make me want to drag out a copy of Stephen King's "The Colorado Kid" in order to check out more of the backstory.

I'd recommend not doing so. There is very little intention apparent to capitalize on the linkage. I figure that checking out the short story deliberately because you're watching the television series would just foster a context for disappointment and disaffection, and serve no additive aim. I trust that whatever background we may need from the short story (if any) would be provided on-screen.

I read the criticisms, then watched, and thought it was good. Ill keep it as a timer for sure.

Slow... I may watch second episode but it is not high on my list. Found some of it predictable. The weather lady side story is just too predictable. Haven't I seen that before?
