AMC is a cable television network that primarily airs
movies. The letters originally stood for American Movie Classics. However, since 2003, the full name has been deemphasized (as is the case for
TLC, and formerly
TNN) as a result of a major shift in programming. Some have suggested that the channel's
acronym could now stand for American Movie Channel or All Movie Channel. AMC is owned by
Rainbow Media Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of
Cablevision Systems Corporation, and signed on
October 1,
1984.
