Haven (2010) - Season 05 Volume 02

I've been a fan of "Haven" since the first scene of the first episode in the first season.Throughout its run, I've enjoyed its quirky characters and the situations they've found themselves in. That said, while I was sad to see that it was drawing to a close, I was eager to see how the writers would wrap up this truly interesting show. I was not disappointed.Weaving old story lines and characters into the final season, tying up loose ends, and carefully orchestrating the narrative; the writers were able to close the "Haven" saga in a way that did not leave a slew of unanswered questions.And, as an added bonus, they brought in William Shatner to play an important part in the season's final episodes."Haven" has been a great show for many reasons, not the least of which is the fact that its core characters have always had the good of the town at heart. They have been willing, throughout the series, to make sacrifices in order to preserve this special place and that holds true in this final season. It sounds corny, I know, but there is something to be said for a television program that reminds us, as viewers, that there are some things worth sacrificing our personal happiness, and perhaps even our lives, for; some things that demand we rise above our own desires.Led by Emily Rose - who almost didn't get the part of Audrey Parker because some show executives thought she was "too pretty" - the core cast has always provided viewers with excellent portrayals. Lucas Bryant and Eric Balfour, as Parker's close companions Nathan and Duke, have always stood out in my mind as actors who were exceptional in their roles. I was particularly impressed with Balfour's portrayal of the smuggler Duke Crocker, a shady character that, over the course of the show's run, transforms into a truly heroic figure.I'm not about to reveal any spoilers, that would be unfair to viewers who have not seen the show, but I will say that it ends on what was, for me, a very satisfying note.As I said, I was sad that it ended but very pleased with the way it did.

I enjoyed Haven as much now as I did before. I bought the box set . Just remember that there is a part 2 ( Final chapter) to number 5 . That didn’t come with the box set that I purchased.later .

👍🏻

I honestly don't know what to say about Haven - I absolutely loved the whole series - loved this final season but HATE that it's ended!!This show runs the gamut from being hilarious, to extremely serious, to making you cry to laughing out loud. And also makes you think... hmmm... what if?? LOLIt had heartbreaking moments in this last season but as past seasons have shown us, there is happiness and light after the dark. I liked the way it ended and will be revisiting this series in the future to watch it again, I'm sure!!

I purchased the entire series of Haven. I had first watched it as a series on t.v. years ago.I purchased the entire series. Haven is an excellent addition to your DVD/Blueray library.Suspense and Relationships. . . I power watched the entire series over a few days. I would reccomend the entire series for those who enjoy suspense, action, drama, and love.

I bought this as a replacement for my DVDs. That were stolen from me. The quality of the first DVDs and packaging was better. That being said, the lesser quality was in the packaging that houses the DVDs. The DVDs were okay.

I couldn't wait to get this final season but like the other reviewers this is the last half of Season 5 not the full complete season. It didn't matter to me since I already had the 1st half and just needed this to complete it. I recently started watching the 1st season again & realized that the characters use to be funnier & stories were less dark then they are in this last season. I was just glad that the storylines got cleared up and see that ending that I wanted from the start! I was very pleased with this purchase.

All the disc's worked. No skipping. No complaints.

Great

One thing television often lacks these days is imagination. Major networks floods us with the same old carbon copied television shows each week, with only a few being the exception. Haven is one of the exceptions. For anyone who loved the Twilight Zone, or spent hours watching X-Files or every kid who grew up on those imaginative Sci-Fi comic books, or sunk themselves in an unfolding mystery - Haven is for you! I won't give anymore away but I will say the ending was extremely well done....I'm just sad it's gone.

Awesome movie to complete my series

The final season was epic!! I think the way they ended the season was spot on. I wouldn't have changed anything. I'm sad to see the story end. Every episode keeps engulfing you, keeps bringing you in and makes you wonder what's going to happen next.

Love this series...funny, inventive, sad, happy, intriguing,...something for everyone.Love all the actors but Nathan and Audrey (Sara, Lexie, Mara) are really wonderful to watch.I started watching season 1 and 2 on TV but couldn't wait to see how it ended.
