Haven 3-1 Review

I am not sure how I got hooked on SyFy Channel's show Haven, but I have. Maybe it's because it's based on Steven King's book "The Colorado Kid" or that it sort of like x-men in a small town kind of way. Either way I was wondering if the show had gotten canceled, because the last episode of season 2 felt like it just ended, but not the usual cliff hanger that some shows do.

So in case you don't know what happened here's where season two left off. Nathan finally realizes that he can feel Audrey touch him. Before this, he could feel nothing, no pain, no one's touch or anything. And this makes him start to fall for her. They make a plan to have a date at her apartment, when she is taken by someone. We see Nathan believe it's Duke due to the fact Duke's dad killed Troubled people. So they have a big fight and end of the show. If none of this sounds familiar go back and watch the second season or both season one and two if nothing makes sense.

So season 3 starts off right were season 2 left off. Nathan and Duke continue their fight when another "trouble" even takes place. It's a huge magnetic surge that no one knows who caused it. So Nathan not only has to try to find Audrey, but figure out who caused the surge of magnetic energy, when another person has been taken. Nathan and Duke go to the scene of the other abduction and find a guy who believes the aliens took his mother. Ignoring the fact that he's troubled.

Meanwhile, some man is asking Audrey where the Colorado Kid is and she won't tell him since she doesn't remember. She finds another woman is being held because she had contact with the Colorado Kid and doesn't know where he is either.

I could go on in detail, but pretty much Audrey gets free, finds Nathan and Duke, but the other woman is burned to death. They try to make her son understand that he's troubled and ends up walking into the light of some ship that they believe he created with his "trouble". The show ends with them going to the grave site of where the Colorado Kid was buried and all that is there is Audrey's handwriting that they need to find him before the hunter.

Review: Overall, the episode wasn't bad. Watching it I didn't have any issues, but after thinking things over I realized that it was just an okay episode. It could have been the season ender for season 2 and still make people want another season. So I think it was a little lacking in excitement and just didn't leave me with much of an impression. Though I do think the season is going to get exciting with some of the new things that have slowly been developing all along.
