I personally am a geek for monster of the week style & what I like about Haven is that there is usually a little bit of the myth arch in any given episode. While it certainly isn't the best on SyFy, it's still better than a lot of network fare & actually one of the shows (along with Eureka) that I look forward to every week. I personally enjoy both the leads but of course mmv.

Uh...they are actually complimenting Eric Balfour. They are saying he is the best actor on the show. Reading comprehension fail.

I tried it. I thought it might be a supernatural take on Eureka, which seemed interesting. I gave it three episodes and then gave up. I'm not a big sci-fi type fan, which is probably the biggest issue. I like Eureka as much as I do because the town itself is so interesting and the characters are engaging. I didn't get that with Haven, unfortunately. It was just... boring. I don't mind Balfour, but his character seemed largely pointless and grating, which was too bad. I didn't think the acting was horrible but it wasn't strong, either. It just seemed like every episode moved too slow, and I couldn't get invested in the leads. Oh well. To each his own.

watching it right now for the first time and only decided to after reading this... and im gonna have to agree... the acting on this show is pretty horrible. almost at jessica alba status.

so it got better Kelly. Maybe I'll give it another go. I made it to the butterfly episode and decided it there wasn't anything particularly awesome or interesting for me and the leads are so wooden as to be unwatchable. Yeah, thinking on it, I think I'll wait until the season is over to watch it. There's only so many hours in the day... yes and that's why I'm commenting on a twop blog. lol
