  • Still not hitting all cylinders





  • Just a little better.

    At least not repeat mistakes of the two previous episodes. But fails to take flight. They have rushed so quickly by committing one of its protagonists. Do not get surprised.
    The good guy in the end it is not so, and the bad which is good ... reminds me of Heroes. The matches as the only way to get clues about her missing mother, do not make it more attractive.
    If that's what keeps it in Haven, then to investigate. What is missing is that they also want to make episodes that carry a parallel plot as in X-Files.
    I give two more episodes of grace. If not, see something else.
  • Filler episode

    I think this episode could've been very good if there had been an explanation or have some kind of paranormal motive to the man's strange ability. I was hoping to hear something weird when the man was telling Audrey all about the boat and his grandfather but it was just lame and simple. One more thing: if the patients could get violent at some point and they didn't know how long the music effect lasted how was he going to survive all alone with three patients overseas?

    Anyway, we can't still judge the show for one episode. First two were very good and all shows have their ups and downs.

    There were more inconsistencies but the last scene kind of saves the episode. Audrey is trusting Nathan and he still wonders why she's in Haven. But they both know what they're after and that is a plot I'm eager to follow.
  • Why not record the music?

  • A lot better than the previous episode, but still poor. OK, mediocre.

    This time they managed to keep the episode interesting for maybe 10 minutes. But then, no clues given, all of a sudden Audrey figured out who the main suspect was and what was going on. That was practically it for the episode. Downhill from that point.

    As in previous episodes, little logic to it all. Mistakes like giving Nathan electric shock without paralysing Duke at the same time while Nathan was strangling Duke. Nathan roasts his arm but needs no medical attention. Add to those an insane psychiatrist who is sane enough to understand what was going on and who was going to carry out a brain surgery. Come on. How can we believe it? And finally, mistery solved, but no action taken. I mean Audrey, the FBI agent, does not report the phenomenon to anyone, and the doctor, who is sane again, becomes uninterested in the case and in the opportunity to find a cure for insanity. This is just silly.

    The show has been quite disappointing so far. It will never be anything like X-Files, I'm afraid.
  • 103

    The best episode yet, but unfortunately that does not mean much as this show has been nothing but a disappointment as a whole.

    There is just too much insanity, and no logic behind it like with Fringe. Fringe explains the bizarre happenings on their program, Haven just has 30 zombies get stabbed and call it a television show.

    The cast is poor, the dialogue is weak, Haven as a whole just really flops for Syfy. With all the great dramas on cable right now, Haven has not yet achieved even mediocre status in my eyes, and might not ever get there.
  • Phenomenon without explanation that makes the whole show a bit weak

  • I actually liked this episode; another solid offering.
