AMC is home to massive hit shows like The Walking Dead and Interview with the Vampire, but they also have the benefit of a deep catalogue of classic Hollywood films — combined with documentary and indie film channels like IFC and Sundance, it’s got the one-two punch of being one of the best TV channels for movies, and for originals series on cable. For film buffs, AMC is a great option for keeping cable — but you don’t have to, now that there are plenty of easier, more cost-effective ways to stream AMC without cable.

There are several streaming services that will let you livestream episodes of new shows on AMC, as well as watch AMC shows on demand and DVR AMC shows so you can play them back later. The bottom line? With these services, you don’t need cable to watch AMC, although choosing the right platform is important. Popular streaming service Fubo TV, which used to be a major place to watch AMC live, also removed several channels from its platform — mainly dropping AMC, IFC, BBC America, BBC World News, We TV and Sundance from their subscription plan.

There’s no news at this point on whether or not these channels will be added back later, so if you’re looking to stream AMC online now, we’ve got you covered.
