MGM Presents: Westerns

USA USA

MGM Presents: Westerns schöpft sein Programm aus der umfangreichen Filmothek von Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer und konzentriert sich auf das Western-Genre, wie es sich im amerikanischen Kino entwickelt hat. Zuschauer in den Vereinigten Staaten können klassische Spielfilme aus der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts sehen, darunter Werke von Regisseur John Ford und mit Schauspielern wie James Stewart oder John Wayne. Der Sender zeigt zudem spätere revisionistische Western aus den 1960er- und 1970er-Jahren sowie Fernsehserien, die ursprünglich für das Netzwerkfernsehen produziert wurden. Dokumentationen über den Wilden Westen und gelegentliche Hintergrundberichte überbrücken die Zeit zwischen den Filmvorführungen.

Die Programmschemata sind um thematische Blöcke herum aufgebaut, etwa Nachmittags-Western am Wochenende oder Doppelvorstellungen am Abend. Der Sender ist landesweit über Kabel- und Satellitenanbieter verfügbar, und einige Episoden oder Filme können auf Abruf über angeschlossene Streaming-Plattformen abgerufen werden. TV-Programmhinweise in lokalen Zeitungen und Online-Datenbanken zeigen in der Regel das tägliche
