I had a scare yesterday. Our 2-year contract with DirectTV ended and the bill increased by $32. While I was looking at different packages to see if there was a less expensive package, I noticed AMC was no longer included in our package. Panic-stricken, I called DirectTV. The customer service dude told me I was safe - AMC was grandfathered into our plan. Then he asked if I watched The Walking Dead. We spent almost an hour chatting about TWD lol.

Yeah, but will it still be grandfathered in if you switch to a cheaper package? Or will you get cut off?

AMC is only grandfathered in the package we have. Our package had been the least expensive package when we signed up. It has now been replaced by a package that costs the same but doesn't have AMC or TCM. If I switched to a different package, I'd lose AMC unless I switched to a more expensive package.

Playing the PC version of zombie apocalypse survival game State of Decay when I came across this:

Seems there was an election coming up between wannabe sheriff Grimes and the current sheriff. A chap named Carl. ;)

So if you choose a cheaper alternative, you lose AMC. Way to rip you off.
