August 2013 Paranormal TV New and Returning Air Dates

August is a quieter month for TV in terms of new and returning titles, but don't you worry because Fall TV is not that far and from the looks of the awesome that is coming, we will need our strength!  We can gather it now as we dip into the shows to enjoy including Season 2 of Game of Thrones having it's cable broadcast premiere on Showcase, which I'm sure will be a huge hit with many readers.  I am very curious to see InnerSpace's look at this years Comic Con in San Diego, which has become *the* place to find out about everything geektastic.  If you'd rather look for little green men, check out History's broadcast of Secret Access: UFOs on the Record, which sounds pretty interesting to me.

An awesome update: 2 additional shows to add to August: Face Off Season 5 and the series debut of Heroes of Cosplay will air on Space starting Tuesday August 13, 2013.

Here is the description of the special presentation:

"Reports of strange and unexplainable sightings in the skies have been around since prehistoric drawings but with the rise of video and photo technology in the modern era, reports of these events and visual evidence have only increased. Based on the book UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go On the Record, this special explores sightings that are supported by numerous sources, from military and commercial pilots, and other military, FAA and NASA officials as well as hard data: photos, film, radar and audio recordings.

And we have an Also Awesome this Month to share. Although it's not a new season per se, we do have the Season 2 Cable Premiere of epic series Game of Thrones:

Game of Thrones (Season 2)
Begins Fri Aug 30, 2013 at 10pm ET/7pm PT on Showcase

Here's a look into Season 2 of Game of Thrones:

"With tensions and treaties, animosity and alliances, Season 2 of Game of Thrones is a thrilling journey through a riveting, unforgettable fictional landscape based on George R.R. Martin's bestselling novel A Clash of Kings. In Kings Landing, the coveted Iron Throne is occupied by cruel young Joffrey (Jack Gleeson), counseled by his conniving mother Cersei (Lena Headey) and uncle Tyrion (Peter Dinklage), who has been appointed Hand of the King. But the Lannister hold on the Throne is under assault on many fronts. There's Robb Stark (Richard Madden), son of the slain Lord of Winterfell Ned Stark, who seeks autonomy in the north and has taken Cersei's brother Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) prisoner in battle; Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), looking to shore up her depleted power in the east through three newborn dragons; Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane), brother of the late king Robert, who rejects Joffrey's legitimacy and aligns with a powerful priestess to raise a naval attack; Stannis' brother Renly (Gethin Anthony), who has maintained his own claim since fleeing Kings Landing; and Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen), who was raised by the Starks, but whose blood ties in his native Iron Islands runs deep. In the meantime, a new leader is rising among the wildings outside the Wall, adding new perils for Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and the order of the Night's Watch."
