I don't have the facts and figures to argue the commercial success of such changes, but almost every channel I once liked has turned into something horrible. AMC has made the least offensive changes, in my opinion, but I do miss the old programming. Their Tarzan weekend back in the 1990s was genius! I stayed up most of that weekend watching the entire history of Tarzan on film. What an amazing experience. And I loved how they would show so many exploitation films from the 60s and 70s. I don't know what their identity is supposed to be now except the place where they show "Mad Men."
