Sling TV gets AMC added to its base package

A big win

Sling TV is a pretty neat cable-cutting service that’s already live on the Amazon Fire TV, Roku 3, and in the coming weeks, the Xbox One. Today, it debuts AMC in its base package, which is still priced at $20 per month.

This is a huge get, as The Walking Dead is one of the biggest shows on TV, and Better Call Saul is fantastic so far. IFC is also being added, which most people will be familiar with by way of Portlandia. On Demand content is “coming soon.”

I’ve contacted Sling TV to inquire about the launch date on Xbox One, as we haven’t heard anything other than “soon” in the past few months. If it gets FX, I will 100% cut my cable once HBO Go goes standalone.
