What's with movies & television now being mostly about horror, violence, vampires, zombies, warriors, doomsday?

Question

even the global news is mostly bad news, and the
weather channel is getting ominously cloudy, and the
space channel has a mingled mega shark + octopus,
and the grace channel has some awful lawful sh*t on it

is there some under-lying factor for all this Horeb-bull?

Answer 1

Answer 2

It's because television producers are unoriginal and loss-averse, meaning that as soon as someone makes a successful movie/series/ad on a certain theme people copy the concept and milk it to death and then move on.
