AMC Channel Online: Stream Your Favourite Shows From Anywhere Cheaper Than Cable

I watch AMC’s programming because of its incredible dramas like Mad Men, Breaking Bad, and The Walking Dead.

In a hurry? If you just want a great streaming service that includes AMC, here are our favorites:

Why You Need a VPN Today

However, first you need a VPN to unblock US streaming services from . Our favourite is ExpressVPN. It’s definitely not the cheapest option at $6.67/month, but it just works – and across all your devices.

They have servers in 25+ US cities/states and 105 countries, which unblock access to premium streaming platforms available only in the US, as well as free “on demand” TV services worldwide.

You’ll have access to local platforms as if you were in the country, meaning you can watch BBC iPlayer as if you were in the UK, CBC Gem as if you were in Canada, plus hundreds more worldwide.

Sign Up for ExpressVPN

Hotdog users get three months free at ExpressVPN, so it’s a “no-brainer” for us. Decide for yourself with their 30 day money-back guarantee.

IMPORTANT: Once you’ve installed your VPN and connected to a US server, you’ll still need to subscribe separately to access premium streaming services.

Previously known for uncut, uncolorized classic films, AMC is now better known as the producer of original dramas Mad Men, Breaking Bad, and The Walking Dead. The latter went on to become the highest-rated scripted show in cable history.

We get it: you want to ditch your cable company, but if you miss the latest The Walking Dead episode as it airs, you risk someone dropping a spoiler. No fear — you can keep on top of all the zombie-killing drama with one of the streaming services discussed here.

How to Watch AMC Live Without Cable

How to Stream AMC

Let’s start with the bad news: three of the top streaming services, FuboTV and Hulu + Live TV, don’t carry AMC or any of its sister channels. Bummer.

The great news is that all the other streaming services do carry AMC plus its sister channels IFC, Sundance TV, BBC America, and WE tv. One of them (Philo) is just $28/month.

Service	Price	Channels	Reviews
	$28/month	70+	Philo
	$40.00/month	30+	Sling
	$108.99/month	125+	DIRECTV

Try Philo for Free

All three of the providers above include cloud DVR support with Philo and DIRECTV Stream offering unlimited cloud DVR access. Meanwhile, all three providers above allow simultaneous screens with DIRECTV Stream allowing unlimited screens.

All the streaming services except Philo support recent Samsung smart TVs. And all except for DIRECTV STREAM support all that use the Android TV operating system. Sling also supports LG smart TVs.

All the streaming services support standard devices that turn mild-mannered TVs into Super TVs: Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, and Roku. And they also support mobile devices running Android and iOS (iPhone, iPad) if you want to watch on the go.

Sling also supports the Xbox One and the VR Oculus.

Other Ways to Stream AMC

Those aren’t the only ways to see how Better Call Saul ends. Many of the shows you love are available on-demand on services like iTunes, Vudu, and Amazon Prime Video.

• YouTube TV: Includes AMC and all its sister-channels in its 100+ selection for $72.99/month.
• AMC+: AMC Networks offers a stand-alone app starting at just $4.99/mo, featuring a comprehensive ad-free collection of AMC’s content, plus IFC Films Unlimited, Shudder, and Sundance Now. There are AMC+ exclusive series and early access to the new episodes of The Walking Dead, and it runs on most common streaming devices.

Our Choice

So whether you’re a fan of the supernatural A Discovery of Witches or the psychological thriller Killing Eve, you can still get rid of your cable bill.

Just sign up for one of these streaming services — we recommend Philo, but any of them will work — and catch all the AMC you can handle, whenever you want.

What is AMC?

AMC is the flagship channel of AMC Networks, which also owns BBC America, IFC, Sundance TV, and We TV. Among the “basic cable” channels, only FX brings a similar level of original prestige television.

Film buffs pining for the good old days when American Movie Classics still showed black and white Buster Keaton and Humphrey Bogart movies can tune into Turner Classic Movies (TCM) for their Casablanca fix.

AMC isn’t available over the air (OTA), so you can’t tune in with an antenna. Historically, you’ve needed to go through a cable or satellite provider to watch it, but now there are several streaming services that bring channels like AMC to you over the internet.

These over-the-top (OTT) services such as Sling TV are typically cheaper than cable packages, without contracts or hidden fees. All you need is a high-speed internet connection.

AMC Shows

The top TV shows on AMC include:

• The Walking Dead
• Better Call Saul
• Mad Men
• Hell on Wheels
• Preacher
• Snowpiercer
• Fear The Walking Dead

FAQ

Does Hulu offer AMC?

Hulu + Live TV does not offer AMC. Even their on-demand service is a disappointment when it comes to the channel. It doesn’t stream back-seasons of The Walking Dead, though they do have its spin-off, Fear the Walking Dead along with a handful of other AMC and IFC originals. Nor does Hulu + Live TV carry any of the AMC Network channels such as BBC America.

What is the cheapest way to get AMC?

The cheapest way to get AMC content is through AMC+, which starts at $4.99/mo right now (regularly $8.99/mo when you subscribe through AMC directly). It doesn’t live-stream AMC, but you actually get episodes to some current shows – including The Walking Dead – a week before they air. Some shows are AMC+ exclusives you can’t watch anywhere else.

If you prefer watching AMC as a live TV channel, your cheapest option is Philo, which has AMC and 60+ other channels for $28/month.

If you wanna get AMC-crazy and go for both live-streaming and all the perks of AMC+, you should take a look at Sling TV’s Orange package: for $47/mo ($40.00/month base plus $7/mo add-on), you get over thirty channels including AMC, BBC America, and IFC, plus all of AMC+’s content.

Can I get just AMC by itself?

You can’t get just AMC by itself. The closest thing is AMC+, which gives you the excellent deal of basically all the AMC Networks’ combined content on-demand, with some episodes available even before they air on AMC. It also has some AMC+ exclusive content not offered anywhere else. But it doesn’t give you the live channel.
