SyFy: Aftermath and Channel Zero

As if the debate this week was not scary enough, don't forget to watch SyFy's new show this week called Aftermath about the end of the world.  I am not sure it offers anything new in a time of stories about world-destroying power failures (Revolution), zombies (Walking Dead), vampires (The Strain), aliens (Colony), and demons (Dominion), but I suppose another version cannot hurt.

Here is the story:

When the world as they know it starts coming to an end, the Copeland family must face terrifying supernatural creatures and unprecedented disasters, including massive storms, earthquakes, meteor impacts, plague and the rapid decline of civilization. Will they be able to make it through - and figure out how to stop it?

And that's not all. SyFy's Channel Zero will also keep you awake.  Here is the summary of this new show starting October 11th:

Candle Cove centers on one man’s obsessive recollections of a mysterious children’s television program from the 1980s, and his ever-growing suspicions about the role it might have played in a series of nightmarish and deadly events from his childhood.

Maybe things could be worse than another debate.
