What Channel is AMC Plus on DirecTV?

AMC has some of the grittiest and most realistic shows on its networks, packed with high-octane action and nailbiting drama that are perfect for late-night (and daytime) binges. Regardless of the streaming service or TV bundles that one has, being able to access AMC networks and all their shows is a must for anyone who’s ever seen any of the genre-defining shows that the network has produced.

AMC Premiere is already one of the most subscribed network bundles, but a new premium streaming bundle released last year, bringing more new content to your TV (and mobile) screens than ever before. We’re talking about the much-touted AMC Plus, and yes – it is available on DirecTV as well.
