To be fair, I found the Emergency Alert System scary as a little kid because when it shows up, it's loud and sudden. It was even worse at night because I thought a monster or another type of creature was trying to get out of the TV or something. This story could've tapped into the idea that the E.A.S is actually a monster that travels through TVs and broadcasting airwaves a lot more than what's presented here.
