I really love this show and have watched
every episode since season 1! I've also interviewed most of
the stars from the show. The last couple of years, things
got really weird. I think I liked it better when we didn't
know who Audrey was and they just investigated the strange
things going on. However, in today's TV, fans wanted a Big
Bad every season, or a larger story arc, not just the
one-per-episode problems.
They did come up with a fairly good
explanation for everything, yet still keep us guessing as to
what's really going on. It just gets a bit strange at times.
I enjoyed when Colin Ferguson was on the show as William,
but I didn't like Audrey being evil. I'm glad they sort of
settled that in this season. It was great seeing Emily Rose
playing a dual rose.
I love science fiction and fantasy shows,
but the thing I like most about this series is the
relationship between Audrey and Nathan, and their
triangle/friendship with Duke. Also, they have lots of great
fun, quirky characters, like the Teagues and Dwight, and the
medical examiner.
It's great to have all of the episodes
available on DVD and now Blu-ray. Ordinarily I don't
like it when companies break up TV seasons into volume 1 and
volume 2, but this one actually makes sense because season 5
is twice as long as a normal season. I don't know why they
decided to do it this way, but season 5 volume 1 is 13
episodes (just like season 4), and when the show returns in
October, it's the second half of season 5, not season 6.
It's so weird. Anyway, you should watch all of the episodes
if you haven't already, and enjoy it. It's a really good
series with a lot of heart, great specially effects, and
good acting.
There are quite a few good features on the
DVD as well, to enjoy. See below for details.
I'm very upset that they're canceling the
series and this last 13 episodes starting in October will be
the last. I can't wait for the show to return 10/8, but I'm
sad that it's the last part of the show.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The
Troubles are returning to Haven like never before in
HAVEN: SEASON FIVE, VOLUME ONE, arriving on
extras-loaded blu-ray and DVD on September 8 from
Entertainment One.
Based on
the novella "The Colorado Kid" from Stephen King, the hit
Syfy series follows former FBI agent Audrey Parker (Emily
Rose), who became a cop in the small town of Haven, Maine,
and quickly found herself involved in the return of "the
Troubles," a series of supernatural afflictions that have
plagued the seaside village for generations. Partnered with
local residents Nathan Wuornos (Lucas Bryant) and Duke
Crocker (Eric Balfour), Audrey began
to realize that Haven's fate was linked to her own, and only
she can save the town and the people she loves from the
weight of their curses.
HAVEN:
SEASON FIVE, VOLUME ONE, picks up with the aftermath of
our heroes' victory over William. After having successfully
banished him into the Void, Nathan and Duke are devastated
to discover that the Audrey Parker they know and love has
disappeared. In her place stands Mara, the unflinchingly
malevolent "original" person responsible for creating the
troubles many centuries ago. Finally freed from the confines
of her do-gooder husks (Audrey, Lucy, Sarah, etc.), Mara
proceeds to unleash a wave of chaos over Haven.
From
leading independent studio Entertainment One (eOne),
Haven is co-commissioned by Shaw Media in Canada and
globally via Universal Networks International (UNI).
The
creative team behind Haven includes executive
producers John Morayniss (Klondike, Rogue)
from eOne Television and David MacLeod (Legends of the
Fall, The Ray Bradbury Theater) of Big Motion
Pictures, who are joined by Lloyd Segan, Shawn Piller, Scott
Shepherd (Stephen King's The Dead Zone, Greek)
of Piller/Segan/Shepherd and Matt McGuinness (Minority
Report, Journeyman, Franklin and Bash) and
Gabrielle Stanton (The Flash, The Vampire Diaries,
Grey's Anatomy). The series was developed by Sam Ernst
and Jim Dunn (Stephen King's The Dead Zone).
Haven
is produced by Entertainment One and Big Motion Pictures in
association with Piller/Segan/Shepherd and airs on Syfy in
the US, Showcase in Canada and internationally on UNI's
multiple Syfy channels. Entertainment One controls the
worldwide distribution rights to the one-hour series.
