So you're getting this crazy cheap price—but is there actually anything good to watch? Short answer: yes, tons.
Current TV ShowsOne of Hulu's biggest selling points: you can watch episodes from current TV seasons, often the day after they air. Shows from ABC, NBC, FOX, and more are all here.
Hulu Originals Worth Your TimeHulu’s been making its own shows for years, and some of them are genuinely excellent. They've won Emmy awards and improved a lot in recent years.
The Back CatalogRemember that show you loved in the 2000s? It’s probably on Hulu. Their library goes deep with sitcoms, dramas, reality shows, and more—perfect for nostalgia binges.
Movies and MoreThe movie selection rotates regularly, mixing new releases, classics, documentaries, and comedies throughout the year.
Let's Talk About Those AdsWhat to Expect
You'll see ads during shows—like traditional TV, but shorter. An hour-long show might he 3–4 breaks, each about 60–90 seconds.
Is It Really That Bad?
Honestly? For less than a dollar a month, the ads are fine. You're paying less per month than most streaming services cost with discounts.
Want to Go Ad-Free Later?
If you hate the ads, you can upgrade to Hulu's ad-free plan later (currently $18.99/month). But try the ad plan first—it’s not as bad as you think, especially at this price.
