I had no idea Haven was a show that existed and I just looked it up, might just end up binging it, seems fascinating. Talking of small towns in fake edit: It turns out the aerial shots of the town in Haven are Lunenburg, Nova Scotia.... and Locke & Key's town is largely shot there as well. Hah.

Man, I haven’t thought about Eureka in years. Definitely good memories, though. Very emblematic of peak mid-00s Syfy Channel when Eureka and BSG were on at the same time. I feel like there needs to be a name for that sort of show that mixed a certain genre and tone of that period. Eureka, Warehouse 13, The 4400, The Librarians, Continuum, Lost Girl… obviously “Vancouver production” is a common element. But they’re also something like the opposite of grimdark, without going to the full degree of cloying positivity like Good Place and Parks and Rec.

Did anyone watch The Regime? I watched the first 4 episodes and not sure it's worth finishing. It feels like it still hasn't gotten to the point 2/3s of the way through.

The last two episodes are IMO by far the best of the show, so worth finishing if you got that far. But it did feel like a show that had great acting but never really fully knew what it was going for in terms of plot or tone.

The main character of Haven's voice is grating for me, not sure if it's a fry, an accent or her drawl. But i couldn't deal with it.

Continuum is as grim as anything the Syfy channel put out, except BSG and maybe Defiance. It's a great show though. Aesthetically I sense what you're gesturing at, but I think your list is two different kinds of television shows that just happen to be Canadian genre fiction. Eureka / Warehouse 13 / The Librarians are on one tonal end of things, and The 4400 / Lost Girl / Continuum are more sort of in the middle of things, sort of between your Alphas and Blood Drive. And then the really bleak stuff like The 100, Colony and Ghost Wars (does anyone remember this thing? Wild.) would be even further along.

Not only am I blown away by baby reindeer but (and I mentioned this in the UKTV thread) it's wild to me how loving everyone here is talking about it. Passing by some middle aged guys digging up the road and they're discussing it, 18 year olds I work with talking about it, my parents mentioning it to me It's just everywhere

Why is this dude ashamed of dating a trans woman in Baby Reindeer? Also, it seems like he is pretending to be a trans man unless I'm not understanding the dialogue. Don't really get what they are going for there, but I'm only two episodes in.

Big Door Prize is back for season two, I was a little disappointed in the first season, but I liked it enough to want to see where it goes next. Also, Blue Lights one of my favorite shows last year came out with a second season recently.
