Haven Season 3
Season Three presents us with more of the same. The Town of Lunenburg continues to be a major character in the series and the brothers who co-publish the local paper still steal every scene in which they appear though their part in the goings on in town becomes more and more ambiguous and sinister. The byplay between Nathan and Duke continues to amuse and as the season begins it becomes apparent that the shot fired off camera at the end of season 2 as the two were struggling with one another was a tease. New twists include seeing Nathan shot to death and resurrected and he and Duke teleported back to 1955. We get to hear the same music featured in October Sky. Somehow the plots seem to become more contrived this year. The mystery of who Audrey is and how she came to be in Haven continues to develope and we are left wandering how long she will remain, will she disappear as mysteriously as she came, and will she reappear. I cared more about the outcome in the first two seasons but it would be a rare show that killed off one of its three main characters.
