Which cable channel(s) gets the most viewing from you for scripted shows?
FX
TNT
SyFy
USA
AMC
Showtime
Starz
Cinemax
HBO
Other
are your choices. I'm talking more about watching week to week either through live viewing, DVR, Amazon, Itunes, On Demand.
Those of you who acquire/watch stuff through shady means don't count.
If you don't have cable and only watch stuff on DVDs/BDs (6 months to 1 year after the show is broadcasted), you also don't count.
There isn't much free legal streaming for those who don't have cable. So that doesn't count either. TNT requires a TV provider to watch their content online. AMC doesn't show anything online for free, FX, SyFy, USA has anywhere from a 1 week to 30 day delay.
You're allowed to make more than 1 choice on the poll
For me, it's AMC, HBO, Showtime and USA
What I watch week to week when it's airing:
AMC: The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Hell on Wheels, The Killing (since it's coming back), Mad Men
Showtime: Dexter, Homeland, Shameless, Californication, House of Lies
HBO: Game of Thrones, Girls, Veep, The Newsroom, Eastbound and Down
USA: Burn Notice, Suits, Covert Affairs, White Collar, Necessary Roughness, Royal Pains.
TNT: Southland, Leverage, Rizzoli and Isles, Falling Skies, Major Crimes, Franklin and Bash, Dallas

I know you've said you work for a cable channel but I sincerely hope you're not lumping those of us who legally get our content thru iTunes, Unbox, OnDemand, DVD/BR etc being as shady as people who pirate content thus none of us counting.

Re: Which cable channel(s) gets the most viewing from you for scripted shows?
I like FX as well, but they only have 3 good dramas going (Justified, SOA and AHS) Hopefully The Americans in January is successful.
They have lost quite a few dramas in the last few seasons with the end of Rescue Me, The Shield, Nip/Tuck and the cancellation of Lights out, Terriers, and Damages.
Even though SOA and AHS are their highest rated shows, I just don't think they have enough content to be really competitive.

I guess I have to remove Showtime from my list since I don't actually subscribe.

Re: Which cable channel(s) gets the most viewing from you for scripted shows?
Read my post more carefully. I didn't say that. This is week to week after the program has been broadcast. iTunes, Amazon, On Demand count as they are posted after it airs. As I said, only DVD and Bds don't count since they don't go on market until 6 months to a year after it airs.

Yes I know that. I guess I was expecting you to assume non-premium week to week after it airs in regards to ITunes, Amazon, VuDu etc.
