Haven Appreciation #1: Because we like their addition to Syfy Fridays

A place to talk about the new show Haven that's on Friday Nights at 9 on the Syfy Channel.

I didn't see a thread for this yet, so I started one. I just recently started watching and think I could really get into it

The IMDB Description (since I'm horrible at explaining things ):

A shrewd FBI agent with a lost past who arrives in the small town of Haven, Maine, to solve the murder of a local ex-con only to discover that the curious enclave is a longtime refuge for people with supernatural powers that holds a lot of secrets, including to her own past.

I've only seen a couple of episodes but I think it's pretty good. I have a deep love for shows that have a strong female lead

You're welcome

You really should! Haven is on tonight if anyone's interested . I believe you can find some more episodes as well on syfy.com.

I managed to watch the first 2 episodes by now and I quite like what I've seen so far. The premise is really interesting and here's hope that I'll get to watch more episodes soon.

Didn't know the show was based on a Stephen King book Anyhow, it seems like the show won't be as creepy as some of his books (not that much of a Stephen King fan - just too creepy for me ).

Yep

Synopsis as per Amazon:
Quote:
A rookie newspaperwoman learns the true meaning of mystery when she investigates a twenty-five-year-old unsolved and very strange case involving a dead man found on an island off the coast of Maine.
So they obviously changed the occupation of the main character for starters, also the plot was changed (as you can tell from the information about the show Jess posted a few posts above).

Also, the book is listed as 'crime' and not 'horror'. From the reviews it seems more a crime/mystery book.

Ok, that sounds way better than his 'normal' books.
