Paranormal Pick of the Week: Haven Season 3 Finale

I can't believe this season of Haven has flow by so quickly, I am so curious to see how they will wrap this season up.  Considering Suzie and I have been chatting enthusiastically about Haven since it's very first episode it is clearly the pick for this weeks Paranormal Picks of the Week:

~~~~ revised information as of December 18, 2012 below~~~~~~

UPDATED HAVEN SEASON 3 Finale Information

SyFy has announced that they are postponing the final 2 episodes of Haven Season 3 and that they will air in January, 2013. Showcase has updated their schedule to indicate this week they will be airing only the Season 2 holiday episode.

I would love to share more, but doing so would be a content spoiler for the show.  If you would like to know the reason behind the re-scheduling, read the SyFy announcement.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Haven Season 3 Finale
Friday 10pm EST on Showcase *

* Make sure to tune in to Showcase earlier though, as the regular 9pm time slot also has a new episodes.  That means 2 back-to-back new episodes this week, including the finale, starting at it's regular time of 9pm EST.

If you can't get enough Haven, keep Showcase on to get into the holiday spirit with a in a reprisal of the Haven Season 2 Holiday Episode Silent Night at 11pm EST on Showcase.

12 Days of Spacemas 2012

It's almost time for 12 Days of Spacemas! I love this time of year and I'm always curious to see what treats Space has in store with use over the holidays with their 12 Days of Spacemas. This year were have marathon galore and tons of films to enjoy and even Christmas with The Doctor with back to back episodes of Season 7, many Doctor Who Christmas Specials and then the new 2012 Christmas special all on Christmas Day! I'm really excited that they are airing Paranormal Witness marathon as I only hopped on to that show mid-season so there is more to enjoy.

If you are a regular Hexed listener you will know we loved many of the shows that are being showcased from Paranormal Witness (Dec 22) to Face Off Season 3 (Dec 23), the awesome New Zealand current day mythological comedy The Almighty Johnson Season 1 (Dec 27), non-fiction spooky series School Spirits (Dec 22) and Sinbad (Dec 26).  Every one of these shows has an entire-season marathons during the 12 Days of Spacemas!  Plus, if you haven't jumped on the Primeval: New World train yet, check out it's marathon on Dec 28, 2012 with the first 8 episodes airing and it has been such a fun show to watch. And for Star Trek: The Next Generation fans they are airing all of Season 1 on Dec 29 & 30, 2012 in a Remastered Marathon (TNG fans check out Shannon's TNG re-watch here).  For the Merlin fans, there is days upon days of Merlin marathons of all four seasons as we lead up the the fifth and final series which will begin to air January 5, 2013 on Space.  In addition, there are tons of movies from fantasy films to aliens invasions and more!

Paranormal Pick of the Week: Alphas Season 2 Finale

Image from Alphas: Episode 12 Need to Know

We have a lot of finales this week and I did find it a bit hard to choose considering last weeks Alphas was so brutal, but I hope they finale with (or actually, preferable without) a bang. This science fiction summer series has been quite a treat the last two years, and I hope we are in for more next year as well. Either way, this weeks Paranormal Pick of the Week is:

Alphas Season 2 Finale
Monday October 22, 2012 at 10pm ET on Space

UPDATE: 
As the Finale didn't air at the timeslot due to a technical error, it will be broadcasted Wed Oct 24, 2012 at 9pm ET/6pm PT as well as being available online. See more details here.

Will it all come together? Will it all fall apart? Either way it feels like there is no going back as these humans with very specific abilities beyond the range of normal human capabilities go deeper and darker into destruction. How will it all go down? Tonight we will find out!

Also Awesome:

• Paranormal Witness Season Finale - Wednesday October 24, 2012 on Space I've been a bit hot and cold with Paranormal Witness, but this second season has had some excellent episodes including the formidable "The Abduction" and clever "The Cabin"; I'm very curious to see what tale will be told as they send this season off
• Hot Set Season 1 Finale - Tuesday October 23, 2012 on Space This reality competition show that pits set designers head to head comes to a close this week and it's been a really fun ride. It's wild to see the contestants create a fully functional and filmable set each and ever week, and I'm very much looking forward tot he finale.
• Primeval Marathons continue on Space and complete with the airing of Season 5 on Sunday October 28, 2012 on Space. It's the final week of marathons for Primeval and I've been enjoying them each and every week! I can't wait for the beginning of the new series next week!
• Halloween, Halloween 4 & Halloween 5 on AMC Canada If you haven't seen these three installments of the Halloween series now is your chance as AMC is playing this week at multiple times. First viewings are Monday October 22, 2012 evening for Halloween & Halloween 4 and then Tuesday October 23, 2012 evening for Halloween 5. I have no idea if I've seen 4 & 5 myself, so I may very well be checking these out! Check AMC Canada listings here.

Paranormal Pick of the Week: Revolution Premiere Monday Sept 17, 2012

Image: Cast of Revolution

Our first new series premieres this week with Revolution hitting the cable waves tonight, Monday night on CityTV here in Canada (concurrent with the US airing on NBC, Mondays at 10pm/9c) at 10 PM / ET. From our recent poll, Revolution landed first place in a three-way tie for of your Most Anticipated New Paranormal Show starting new fall. That makes it easily the Paranormal Pick of the Week:

Revolution Premiere
Monday Sept 17, 2012 at 10PM ET/PT on CityTV

If you need a memory jogger of the show, it's got a survivalist feel and is from both the Supernatural creator Eric Kripke and Lost creator J.J. Abrams are executive executive producers; cast includes Billy Burke (Charlie from the Twilight films), Tracy Spiridakos (Brynn on Being Human North American) and Giancarlo Esposito (Once Upon a Time). Here are also some descriptions of the series:

Original Description: "Follows a group of characters struggling to survive and reunite with loved ones in a world where all forms of energy have mysteriously ceased to exist."
Updated Description: "After 15 years of darkness, an unlikely group sets out to save the world."
Genre: Originally we had this as paranormal, but now it looks a survivalist drama
The People: Both Supernatural creator Eric Kripke and Lost creator J.J. Abrams are executive executive producers; cast includes Billy Burke (Charlie from the Twilight films), Tracy Spiridakos (Brynn on Being Human North American) and Giancarlo Esposito (Once Upon a Time).

I'm definitely interested in Revolution, although I'm a little sad it conflicts with Alphas which is also on Mondays at 10pm on Space until October 22, 2012. Thank goodness for timeshifting! See more about Revolution the cast, crew & show here and the shows website at CityTV and website at NBC.


Image from Sinbad

Also Awesome This Week:

• Sinbad Season 1 Finale Sunday September 23, 2012 at 7pm ET/9pm PT on Space, after travelling all summer with Sinbad and his ragtag crew of misfits and I'm looking forward to seeing how the season will wrap up. Still waiting to here if it will be renewed, and we'll be sure to share when we find out. And US readers you will get a chance to see the series as it will will air in April 2013 on SyFy.
• Hot Set Series Premiere Starts Sept 18, 2012 at 10pm ET on Space (it will air concurrently with US broadcast on SyFy). This is a set design show from Face Off creators and Suzie & I chatted about it last week on Hexed and are really excited to see what it's all about.
