AMC has some shows with potential such as Dark Winds, Moonhaven, Interview with a Vampire, Mayfair Witches, Straight Man, Parish, Invitation to a Bonfire, Alan Wake and the 3 new TWD spinoffs featuring the most beloved characters.

But really they have nothing to do. Cable is a dead issue, advertising money is draining away, and they're not going to make AMC+ a success that even pays for itself. They might partner with another streamer now, but at some point there will be no reason for AMC to exist.

They have some good current and upcoming shows and they should sell out to someone. But who wants to buy? I think some of these projects would be good for Apple.

An Alan Wake TV series... That sounds awesome. I would subscribe just for that.

They were offered a bundle deal with Peacock. They should absolutely think about taking that now it is clear that AMC+ is a complete bust.

I'm watching Gangs of London on AMC+ and so far it's excellent.

As a fan of Remedy I hope this doesn't affect the show. As it stands, though, I can see them partnering with another streamer for exclusive rights to their library. Walking Dead Universe alone would be a big get for any service (regardless of opinions on the show itself), and that's not even getting into other popular shows like Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul, Mad Men, Hell on Wheels, and Halt and Catch Fire to name a few. That'd be a pretty awesome get for Hulu or Netflix or whoever.

Lol moon haven is such complete trash. I turned it off after fifteen minutes because the bad acting and worse special effects were hilarious. That show getting picked up for a second season is why I’ll never subscribe to AMC+.
