Ha! I think you can trace it back a few decades ago when they started 
introducing commercials. First it was one commercial in the middle of a 
movie, then they went full tilt with commercials every 10 minutes.

If TCM could survive 30 years without commercials there's no reason AMC 
couldn't have done the same thing, but they went for the easy money I 
guess.

Only a few big hits like The Sopranos and Mad Men probably kept their 
heads above water this long. Now others with deep pockets like Amazon 
and Apple have entered the fray.
