Wait... Seriously what? That's literally the only reason to sub to AMC+ is this some kind of weird legal dispute?

Netflix has it through February 2025. Same with Better Call Saul, though that was weirder because it was on AMC+ while the final season aired but each episode only stayed up for about 4-5 weeks. Not sure of the rights on El Camino but that's a Netflix original.

I don’t even think AMC holds full rights to breaking bad and better call saul. I think those both lie with Sony, who’s made the shows.

HBO Max removed Westwood. One of their own and most popular shows. Gotta love it (not)

HBO Max removed Westworld because of David Zaslav. That's it.

Why?

He has a history of slashing diversity in his companies across the board.

Among the mass cancellations are shows featuring: PoC, women leads, LGBT+ topics and leads, animation, pretty much all of the Republican boogeymen.

“If David Zaslav had his wish, he would just program Chip and Joanna all day long,”

He wants everything to be HGTV and TLC bullshit. He wants to turn CNN into the next Fox News.

I'm guessing because he's horribly incompetent. I did a cursory Google search and the press is not good. There's even a change.org petition to get him to vacate his position.

They didn't have most of Walking Dead when we looked into it last year. We would have had to sub to maybe 3 services to get a full rewatch.
