Interview with the Vampire season 1 on Netflix has increased AMC+ subscriptions nearly four times from the pre-Netflix baseline!

In late August, the company struck a partnership with Netflix to put prior seasons of 15 AMC series on Netflix for U.S. subscribers for the next year. Dolan said the company has been “very pleased by its performance on this massive streaming platform,” with shows such as Dark Winds and Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches in the Netflix Top 10 watched chart. As far as the strategy on licensing content, versus keeping content on their own platform, executives say AMC+ is “arguably a catch up service for the linear network,” and the company prioritizes putting new and current seasons there. Executives said the second season of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is available to stream only on AMC+ and since season one became available on Netflix, acquisition activity related to the show more than doubled on AMC+. Since season one of Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire became available on Netflix, AMC+ acquisitions driven by season two “increased nearly four times from the pre-Netflix baseline.”
