It's so much about what they currently have as that they have shown for a channel, with what is presumably a much smaller budget that the big three premium channels you mention to turn out hits.

I personally think the author is onto something here, as AMC obviously knows how to do production at a high level, and the point is they need volume of shows as well.




It'd be cheaper for Netflix to poach AMC's top talent and invest in new original shows without buying an entire network.


But AMC doesn't do production. They buy the rights to the shows from production companies. This post makes zero sense.


Well shit, I thought they were producing their own shows, should've done a bit of research.
