I know they have commercials, but do they edit the movies?

Takes longer than 5 minutes for things to cycle through.

i believe they do

Could this mean that Charlie might be willing to add more Rainbow channels in the near future? I hope so!

Wasn't AMC commercial free at one time? Years ago, I remember visiting my uncle, and I do not remember it showing commercials. When he had it, it seemed wonderful. Then, when our local cable company added it, it did not seem as great with commercials. I know that some people like the series on AMC, though. Anyway, it is nice to see another HD channel. Maybe IFC and some of the other Rainbow channels like IFC will become available in HD.

That was 13 years or so ago when it stood for American Movie Classics.

Boy do they ever, I was watching the 3 Stooges on there a week or so ago and they took a 16 minute short and chopped it down to about 5 minutes!

UGH! I just spent $30 for the itunes season pass of Mad Men to get it in HD. Beats hooking up my computer, though.

Big time. Almost to the point that makes a movie unwatchable (IMHO of course)

 

[KAB]

Other than for Mad Men, not worth watching.

When I am done doing my internet show I will check it out somemore, but like I said a bit ago looks good.... CC

That is the main reason that I have been wanting AMC in HD, and I like Breaking Bad too. But I agree the movies are not worth watching, with the edits and the commercials. I can remember when AMC used to be kind of like Turner Classic Movies is now, commercial free.

So when is IFC and WE coming?

 

[JeremyL]

We'll be able to watch "The Walking Dead" in HD when it starts in October!
