Agreed. It was better without the commercials.

In Reply to: AMC - anyone watch it much? posted by DarkFather on November 12, 2002 at 21:37:54:

but they obviously needed more revenue. And, am I remembering incorrectly, or did they used to not edit out all the dirty words, nudity, and subject matter, just like the other pay stations (HBO etc.)?

: Is anyone else really bothered by AMC's new format with TONS of commercial interruptions preceded by their "Who U like us now?" campaign?

: And what about their inclusion of such films as "Chain Reaction" and "RoboCop 3"? When did these movies become "classics"?

: My problem with all this is that I am reduced to watching TCM if I want to see a "classic". And I have never forgiven Ted Turner for colorizing "It's a Wonderful Life".

: Woe is me.
