You know – you are called AMERICAN MOVIE CLASSICS – that means movies from the late 30’s – 60’s. Like antique means anything over a 100 yrs old, not 10 yrs old! You play old T.V. shows that we can see on other channels like TV Land & Nickelodeon, Disney Kids channel etc… We can watch movies from the 70’s to 2012 on the multitude of other channels that are out there like HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, the Movie Channel, Encore, The Foreign Movie Channel & TNT, USA, FOX the list goes on & on. If you want to show old T.V. shows & newer movies – start a new channel! We want AMERICAN MOVIE CLASSICS TO BE EXACTLY WHAT IT STARTED OUT TO BE & THE REASON IT WAS SO SUCCESSFUL WAS BECAUSE IT WAS DIFFERENT FROM ALL THE OTHER CHANNELS THAT ARE OUT THERE!!!!
And where were all the Classic Christmas movies last year????
I tuned to the Hallmark channel the whole month because of your lack of good Christmas programming.
Please – Please – Please – get back to where you started from.

    Exactly how many movies does your outfit own ? I believe it’s the fourth or fifth time that Commando has been shown in the past week. Please explain.

    Thank you

    AMC wasn’t successful before. They are successful now because show good movies and have TV shows that are hits. They now have the number one cable TV show.. “Classic” has been a redefined term anyways. Get off your soapbox and if you want to watch crap shows and movies from the 50’s and 60’s go buy the DVD’s for $5 like everyone else. AMC plays Academy Award movies from the 40’s-2000’s not junk.

    I totally agree!!! I don’t watch AMC amymore, I have it because I liked the CLASSIC MOVIES, the old movies, the black and whites!! Where did they go? All of a sudden now you have CSI:Miami on there and all the newer movies and tons of commercials. Why not be different, ditch the commercials, and get back to the older movies, please!!

    I got on this site to get me 2 cents of complaining in and quite happy to see there are quite a number of them already covering the same issues I have. ‘AMERICAN MOVIE CLASSICS’ used to be just what it’s name implied, and I loved it along with apparently a number of other longtime viewers. I am also old enough to remember that ‘cable TV’ was developed because people were willing to ‘pay’ to NOT have COMMERCIALS. So we have not only been screwed over by cable channels in general by having commercials (but apparently people still want cable for some reason), but this channel is a HUGE disappointment as it doesn’t even, otherwise, stay in the path that made it famous & more desirable for most people. I do not care about the award for Mad Men, and I have never watched it, or any other ‘series’ you have developed. I go to AMC for movies, and rarely find one. Thank God Turner Classic Movies seems to be going strong….oh, and NO commercials.

    I agree with tiah and the gang. and Pete. Get Back to AMERICAN MOVIE CLASSICS. I really miss those old movies. As do a lot of other people. Not showing the REAL Classics are the reason I will not watch that channel anymore. Put back the CLASSIC classics and I will again be watching the AMC channel over most all the other channels again.
