Apparently, Tomorrow Never Dies and The World Is Not Enough will be airing on AMC next Month. On AMC's official site, according to their schedule Tomorrow Never Dies will be on AMC Saturday August 2 at 8:00 P.M. ET and will be repeated the next day at 4:30 P.M. ET. The World Is Not Enough will be on AMC, Saturday August 9 at 8:00 P.M. ET and repeated the next day at 4:30 P.M. ET. There is always a possibility of more Bond films on AMC each Saturday Night in August but I have no idea since Saturday the 9th of August is the last Saturday they have scheduled. The timing of playing these Bond films on AMC is very weird because there is a month long Bond marathon on Spike TV and they are playing both Tomorrow Never Dies and The World is Not Enough in that Spike TV marathon. What makes more sense is that TND and TWINE will be on AMC after they have been on Spike TV's marathon and how AMC is playing it in prime time and Spike is playing them in the morning. I prefer Spike's versions over AMC's versions, but I do prefer AMC overall because of superior scheduling of previous Bond marathons that are getting worse and worse on Spike TV. I prefer the Bond films in prime time because it is more convenient for me to watch them.

Here is The Link To The Two Days The Bond Films Are on AMC in prime time according to their official schedule:

Tomorrow Never Dies
The World Is Not Enough

Thanks for the post on these! I'm a bit puzzled about the rights to the Bond films and which cable channel has them. Is AMC part of Spike?

Is it possible that the 2 Brosnan films airing on AMC have moved to a different channel?

I missed seeing TWINE yesterday, but did see the listing in the paper this week.

I also know in the past AMC has done some James Bond film airings.

What more appropriate Bond film than TND for the AmericanMovie Classics channel to broadcast.

Yes, it's apparently American AND Classic.

Who knew.

Don't watch it it's being horribly edited. Little cuts here and there.

I saw the AMC schedule pop-up on my TiVo. What also popped-up was a listing of Bond flicks airing on VH1. Octopussy, The Living Daylights, & Licence to Kill were on the list. Makes sense since Spike & VH1 are both part of MTV Networks but not sure how AMC fits into this. They did run a Bond marathon a year or two ago so maybe they have some separate deal on the movies too.

I've seen a lot of GoldenEye on AMC lately. At least 3 times in the past few weeks.
