What is AMC+?

Last year, TV heavyweight AMC launched their streaming service, AMC+. Rather than a standalone streaming service like Netflix or Hulu, AMC+ is meant to be an audience-targeted package of curated premium shows that can be purchased through other streaming or cable TV services, such as Sling TV or Comcast Xfinity.

Aside from being able to stream big names from the AMC network, such as The Walking Dead and Mad Men, AMC+ subscribers will also have access to content from some of the other popular AMC brands like Shudder, Sundance Now and IFC Films Unlimited.

All of the shows and movies on AMC+ are available on-demand, and you can watch everything ad-free. So there's no need to upgrade this service to remove the ads. AMC+ is a separate service from AMC Premiere, and right now it's only available for subscribers living in the United States.

The cost of a subscription to AMC+ depends on which streaming platform you use. For example, Xfinity subscribers or Sling TV subscribers can get AMC+ for $7 per month, but AMC+ costs $9 per month with Apple TV or the Roku Channel.

One of the best things about AMC+ is that it includes streaming content from across AMC brands, so you'll be able to watch horror-centric content from Shudder, as well as art house and indie movies and shows from Sundance Now and IFC Films Unlimited.

AMC+ advertises "early access to favorites" in a similar way as HBO Max now features on-demand movies currently showing in theaters. And just like the competitors, AMC+ features streaming exclusives that you won't find anywhere else, like season 10 of The Walking Dead.

If you're looking for a nice range of lesser-known indie movies, old-school horror flicks, as well as AMC's impressive library of hit shows, AMC+ is a perfect cross section of content. But you might not find as much content on AMC+ as you would with other services, because AMC+ is specifically created as a curated list of premium content.

AMC Premiere vs. AMC+

AMC Premiere is AMC's premium upgrade. It's been around for awhile as a service that lets you watch ad-free, on-demand AMC content. AMC Premiere also features special content like extended episodes, bonus scenes, sneak peeks for upcoming AMC shows, and original cuts of movies.

While AMC Premiere is still available, it's a different service from AMC+. So even if you're a current AMC Premiere subscriber, you'll still need a separate subscription to get AMC+. One of the big differences between the two premium AMC services is the content that's available.

While AMC Premiere is focused on AMC content, AMC+ also gives subscribers access to content from three other AMC brands: Shudder, Sundance Now, IFC Films Unlimited. In addition, AMC+ subscribers will get shows from BBC America in the mix. So with AMC+, there's more of a range when it comes to content.

Another big difference between AMC Premiere and AMC+ is how you subscribe. With AMC Premiere, you can subscribe directly from AMC. But you'll only be able to get AMC+ from other TV providers and streaming services, not directly from AMC.

In the past, Comcast Xfinity and YouTube TV offered existing subscribers AMC Premiere as an add-on to the regular subscription plans, but this is no longer an option. If you want AMC on-demand content from either Comcast Xfinity or YouTube TV, now AMC+ is the only available option. If you previously subscribed to AMC Premiere through either of these streaming services, your account should've been automatically upgraded to include AMC+ instead.

How much does AMC+ cost?

AMC+ does not offer different subscription tiers, such as ad-supported or ad-free. All subscriptions to AMC+ are ad-free. To access AMC+, you'll need to sign up through a streaming service you already use, such as Sling TV or Hulu + live TV. Depending on which service you use, the cost of AMC+ might change.

Some streaming services, like Sling TV, offer AMC+ for $7 per month. On the other hand, if you buy AMC+ on using the Roku Channel, it will cost $9 per month. So, although the same AMC+ is offered through different streaming services, there's no set price at the moment.

AMC+ content and add ons

AMC+ features popular shows from the AMC network, exclusive AMC+ series, and content from the other AMC brands: AMC, BBC America, IFC, SundanceTV, plus Shudder, Sundance Now, IFC Films Unlimited. All of the shows and movies on AMC+ are on-demand and ad-free.

One of the biggest hits from AMC is The Walking Dead, and AMC+ is the only place online where you can stream the entire season 10. Aside from the main series, AMC+ features a new series called Walking Dead: World Beyond and the most recent season of Fear the Walking Dead.

Another beloved hit show from AMC is Mad Men, and AMC+ has all of the show's seasons available. If you're looking for newer shows, AMC+ features the big-budget original series Gangs of London and Spy City.

AMC+ also draws from the IFC, Sundance, and Shutter on-demand libraries. So you can watch shows like Riviera and movies like Boyhood. And horror fans will have lots to choose from, like The Babcock and all seasons of Creepshow.

AMC+ features

AMC+ is offered as a premium bundle through other streaming services, so the features you'll be able to access with AMC+ largely depend on the service you choose. But no matter which service you use with AMC+, you should have access to the same AMC library of content.

Watching with an app

At the moment, there is no dedicated AMC+ app for iPhone or Android that's available to download. However, subscribers can access AMC+ using the app of other services. For example, Apple TV and Amazon Prime Video both have streaming apps. So if you subscribe to AMC+ through either of those services, you should be able to watch.

DVR

AMC+ is a service that features a premium on-demand library, but you won't be able to live stream the AMC network using AMC+. The AMC+ website does not currently advertise recording or downloading options for the on-demand AMC library. However, some services may allow subscribers to download movies and shows from AMC+. For example, YouTube TV features unlimited DVR.

Simultaneous Streams

Again, how many streams you'll get with AMC+ depends on the service you're using. For example, YouTube TV allows streaming on three different devices at the same time, and Sling TV allows users to stream one stream with Sling Orange, or with three screens at once with Sling Blue.

AMC+ supported services and devices

Unlike AMC Premiere, AMC+ does not offer subscriptions directly through the AMC network. Instead, AMC+ can be added to an existing streaming service or provider for an additional monthly subscription fee.

You can add AMC+ to your Apple TV channels by searching for it on Apple TV. You can get AMC+ as an Amazon Prime Video channel by adding it to your Amazon Prime Account, or you can access it through The Roku Channel by searching on the service for AMC+.

There are also a few TV providers offering AMC+ subscriptions. Comcast Xfinity allows you to purchase an AMC+ subscription by saying "AMC Plus"into your Xfinity Flex remote. Or if you use DISH or DirecTV, you can search the on demand menu to find AMC+.

If you use a live TV streaming service, like Sling TV or YouTube TV, you can search the service for AMC+, then add it on to your monthly subscription. Any of these services that allow you to watch with an app should also allow you to watch AMC+ with your smartphone or tablet. Most of these services are also available with major smart TV brands.

Our final take

Due to the inclusion of movies and shows from IFC, Sundance, and Shutter, AMC+ is one of the better options available when it comes to premium bundles. So if you want curated content that comes with a bit of everything, this is a good option to try. It's available through many different streaming services and TV providers, some of which provide a free trial, so you should be able get AMC+ no matter which platform you use to watch TV.
