TV Review: Second Season of ‘Haven’ Premieres on SyFy
Submitted by BrianTT on July 15, 2011 - 12:09pmCHICAGO – The first season of “Haven” (recently released on Blu-ray and DVD) ended with a number of cliffhangers and the new season picks up, literally, right where it left off with guns pulled and chaos imminent in the town of Haven.

I want to like “Haven” but it’s a town I just can’t recommend visiting.
