AMC: Stream TV Shows & Movies +12

Anyone who’s ever watched the AMC channel has probably noticed they have more commercial breaks than any other station. Like they showed Moneyball a while back.. the film itself is 2 hours 13 mins. The time slot they gave it was over 3 hours long. That’s more than 45 minutes worth of commercials.

Well the app is no different. Every 4-7 minutes, you get another 2.5-3 minutes worth of commercials. AND THEY WILL SHOW THE SAME EXACT COMMERCIAL 3 OR 4 TIMES IN A ROW. While watching the second episode of Gangs of London, the first 5 commercial breaks played this mind-numbingly stupid AT&T commercial 4 times in a row each break. It was the one with their spokeswoman “Lily” using a whiteboard that’s set up to look like she’s drawing out a play in basketball to explain their deals to two customers...

Oh, and if you try to use the button that rewinds 15 seconds in case you missed something, it sends you directly into another full commercial break. So I’d pay CLOSE attention to what you’re watching unless you want another 3 minutes of McDonald’s and AT&T ads... those are their two biggest sponsors at the moment.

And by the way, do the writers of that commercial really believe that by alluding to basketball and having a few basketballs in the shot that they’re “appealing” to fans of the sport? The writers must be just as dumb as the so-called “humor” they stick into every last commercial.

If you want to spend more time watching ads than your content you are watching with your tv provider, than this may be the an app you’re looking for. It feels like a data miner the way they put 7 sections of ads for a 40 minute episode. Each section had 8-9 individual ads that last 20-40 seconds each. It’s literally impossible to watch programs
And don’t get me started if you lose your spot. Trying to fast scroll to a previous spot in an episode ignites an automatic 9 ads everytime you move even 10 seconds forward are back. And there’s no scrubbing thumbnails so unless you know an exact time, you will have to rewatch a whole episode before you find your previous place.
There are also glaring issues such as a locked rotation about half of the time where your program will only display one way on your device. This is not made for your phone and it is not accessible for phone users.
Great programs on the app, all of my issues are in the actual function of the app and the CONSTANT ADS

This app is horrible. I used to have shudder separately but also wanted the amc channel and Sundance. So I signed up for amc+. What a bad idea.
You cannot search within the shudder portion of the app. You can’t see the latest releases. You can’t pick a sub genre. You can’t do anything you would normally want to do To find something to watch.
Has whoever designed this app ever used an app before?? Have they ever wanted to find a particular program or movie to watch?? I don’t think so.
I hate this. I recently saw an ad for a new shudder movie. I thought, ok I’ll just open the app and it will be there, easy to find or search. Nope. I didn’t recall the title so going through page after page trying to find it was futile. And, if I clicked on a movie to see what it was about hoping that would jog my memory, when you went back it take you back to the top of the list. The list that is in no discernible order whatsoever! Not alphabetical, not by genre, not by date.
Aggravating, worthless excuse for an app.
