Yep. The _exact_ same thing happened with me. Seeing the forest for the trees appears to be a skill lacking at the top at AMC. What's worse, is that the entire thing killed my perspective on the brand. I didn't think of them as anything but the publishers behind two of my all-time favorite shows (BCS, BB) until the AMC+ debacle and everything around BCS. It's just bizarre to me. All of the major incumbents in cable took a "wait and see" approach after watching Netflix and Hulu eat their lunch. I don't know why AMC chose to wait, see, and then do everything wrong afterward.

Now here I am ranting with like 3-4 posts about how bad of a taste in my mouth they've left. It didn't have to be this way!
