One of the biggest bummers of 2019 so far was Syfy’s cancellation of “Channel Zero,“ a brilliant anthology series that got the ax last week after four seasons. The Creepypasta-inspired series was created by Nick Antosca, who previously wrote three episodes of NBC’s “Hannibal” and more recently penned the Guillermo del Toro-produced Antlers.
“Channel Zero” may be no more (at least for now…), but THR reports today that Antosca has launched his very own production banner, titled Eat the Cat. The site notes, “The shingle will focus on television and film projects. The creative mandate is to make elevated genre material and high-end dramas and thrillers.”
THR adds, “The name of the company was chosen to reflect an appetite to break from formula and to tell challenging stories in unconventional ways.”
