With the continued success of the network-defining “Portlandia,” the sketch comedy show “Comedy Bang! Bang!” and “Maron,” DeMontreux has helped IFC become a true comedy standout.

But the biggest story in cable this past year, for DeMontreux, is personal: Saying goodbye to AMC’s “Breaking Bad.” “I’m mourning the loss of that show like it’s a family member,” she says.
