After Sky Atlantic, another case of VM being blocked from new content or VM not prepared to accept BT terms in this case? Understand Amazon Prime will also have first rights for the repeat viewing of "Fear of the Walking Dead" for example, so it could be some time before VM is able to show some new series now on AMC. Not good for VM I have to say.

But we do have another reliable poster theone saying AMC will come this year so let's not get too worried just yet. Both theone and MediaBoy sound convinced that their conflicting sources are correct!
