Under Collier’s leadership, the network has moved into the scripted programming arena, producing a number of original drama programs including Mad Men and Breaking Bad. AMC is also preparing its second mini-series, The Prisoner, for release in 2009.
Collier has overseen three consecutive years of demo delivery growth, as well season-over-season growth in the key demos in primetime.
