AMC is like that. I don't know who runs that place but they're either geniuses or idiots. Can't argue with the results but they could've gotten more out of their shows if they invested more money.
They tried to cut Breaking Bad to 8 episodes and a significantly smaller budget. They tried to cut Mad Men to the same, increase ad time, product placement and cut characters. Both times they were overruled because they don't own the rights to either show and the show runners said fuck you...we'll shop our shit to HBO.
However, AMC owns The Walking Dead so they can cut shit if they feel like it. I'm tempted to believe that HBO would've made a better TWD but at the same time, all the best dramas on TV apart from Game of Thrones are on AMC.
