SyFy Channel series, Haven premieres tonight – Examiner... Did You Watch?

SyFy Channel series, Haven premieres tonight – Examiner
The Syfy channel likes its weirdness in neat little packages. In "Eureka," beginning its fourth season today, a U.S. marshal and his daughter (Colin Ferguson and Jordan Hinson) are stranded, then take up residence, in a strange town in the Northwest. It turns out to be a settlement for scientists conducting out-there research that goes awry far more often than it goes right. In "Warehouse 13," which began its second season Tuesday, two FBI agents (Eddie McClintock and Joanne Kelly) are assigned to a top-secret storage facility in South Dakota that holds the world's collection of strange, supernatural, goofy and dangerous artifacts. Armed with purple "neutralizer" goo, they travel the world to track down problematic pieces and contain them.
Eureka returns tonight at 9pm ET followed by the premiere of Haven. Will Did you watch?
I’ve noticed that Syfy shows that aren’t at least loosely based on some other series franchise don’t seem to generate nearly as much noise on the Internet. Is it possible that even though its airing on a summer Friday that Haven will spur more viewing and yet less Internet discussion than either Caprica or Stargate Universe?  Stay tuned.
