AMC Ups Charlie Collier to President

Charlie Collier, who oversaw AMC’s push into original scripted series with the critically lauded Mad Men and Breaking Bad, has been upped to president of the cable network.

The promotion comes on the heels of a strong recent period for AMC, which entered the original scripted series business last year with Mad, followed by Bad this year. While both shows garner modest ratings, they are critical darlings and earned Primetime Emmys at the September ceremony, including the first drama series trophy for a basic cable show for Mad Men.
