EW has confirmed that AMC Networks has signed a multi-year licensing agreement with Netflix to make streaming of The Walking Dead season 1 exclusive to Netflix starting today. “We are delighted to be in business directly with AMC Networks. AMC’s programming sensibilities have struck a chord with our members and with the overall viewing public,” said Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos, who noted that Netflix has already secured streaming rights to AMC’s Breaking Bad and Mad Men. Today’s deal also includes Sundance programs All On The Line with Joe Zee and Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys, plus future seasons of Dead.
Perhaps this will help lessen Netflix users’ Qwikster quibbles?

Netflix/Qwikster: I guess this is good-bye
perhaps the only good decision Netflix has made in months. I will be rewatching via Netflix next weekend before the big premiere.
Fantastic
great idea! I should do that as well…it’s been so long.
AMC is reruning the first season the sunday afternoon before the 2nd season premiere, 1st episode starts at 2:30pm
Thats funny, I can’t seem to find it on Netflix. The only “The Walking Dead” they have is a Vietnam war movie that ain’t about zombies.
Oh, and no is does not quiet my complaints about qwikster. That was the worst in a string of really crap ideas.
What they need to do is fix their deal with Starz and start streaming stuff like Veronica Mars again. I have as many movies that have been removed from my instant queue and are still in there. THAT is their big steaming issue, and don’t even get me going on the whole Qwikster thing.
Sorry but adding one show that has 6 episodes isn’t gonna lessen anything.

This should come in handy for the 10 people who decided to keep streaming the junk they claimed was entertainment.
Nothing like a bunch of 1-star rip-off movies to get you to pay 10 bucks a month.
….Oh, hello Blockbuster.com… what’s that? You’re cheaper, and you offer movies before Netflix?
No brainer.
The only thing Netflix is doing is taking sides in a media battle.
You think running a basic cable program through your company exclusively is going to change your “Sherriff of Knottingham” image?
It’s not on there quite yet. You can’t even find the DVD’s if you search.

I just watched the whole first season on Netflix… loved it… cant wait til the next season comes out tomorrow.
Hi, Neat post. There’s a problem with your web site in internet explorer, could test this? IE still is the marketplace leader and a large element of other people will miss your excellent writing due to this problem.
Its such as you learn my mind! You seem to know so much approximately this, like you wrote the e book in it or something. I feel that you simply could do with a few % to drive the message house a bit, however other than that, this is wonderful blog. A great read. I will definitely be back.
