AMC HD Launches on DISH

ENGLEWOOD: DISH Network has become the first U.S. carrier to provide the HD version of AMC to its subscribers.

The Rainbow Media-owned cable network features a mix of signature original productions—including the Emmy-winning Mad Men, Breaking Bad and, more recently, Rubicon—as well as a library of feature films.

"DISH Network continues to lead the way in offering the best collection of HD channels in the nation, and we are excited to now bring our customers the award-winning drama Mad Men in high definition on AMC HD," said Dave Shull, senior VP of programming for DISH Network.

"We’re delighted that DISH subscribers can now watch their favorite films as well as AMC’s critically-acclaimed original series, including Mad Men, Breaking Bad and Rubicon, all in HD," said AMC’s president, Charlie Collier. "DISH Network has a strong HD offering and we’re excited to be joining their lineup."

AMC HD is free to customers who subscribe to America’s Top 200 and above, as well as DishLATINO DOS with HD and higher.
