Is HULU worth $2 a month?

[Steve Timko]

Hulu has a deal through Monday where you can subscribe for $2 a month. This is for the version with commercials. Is this worth it?

There's a couple of shows I'd like to watch on Hulu, including Sarah Silverman's show and "The Handmaid's Tale." Anything else jump out?

I dropped Hulu because not only did I get commercials despite paying for it, I got *a lot* of commercials. Is that any better now?

A couple of people I follow on Twitter are predicting Hulu's demise.

I pay for Hulu without commercials, and feel like it is worth it. I used to pay for it without commercials, and felt ripped off. For 2 bucks, may be worth it to watch a few shows and then dump.

I’m experiencing all the streaming services now because the woman who loves me has Hulu, Prime, Netflix, Disney Plus, and probably others I’m forgetting. I am underwhelmed by the navigation (searchability) and quality of content on all the services. Each service has a handful of good original content, but most of it is the sort of stuff Lifetime or TNT used to produce in the 90s. I expected more/better from the services. 

I’m still content to purchase TV content on iTunes and buy DVDs of any movie I like. Then I have it all on one external drive. No ads. No search issues. Nothing I dislike.

With Disney now the majority owner of Hulu and Fox shows “Family Guy” and “American Dad” not moving to Disney+, some have speculated that Hulu will be Disney’s platform for productions that aren’t so family friendly.

[Steve Timko]

I looked at a couple of more lists of shows on Hulu and pulled the trigger. Probably the biggest single selling point is that I can watch the last three seasons of "The Venture Bros." There's quite a few other shows I can catch up on, like "Fargo" and "Rick and Morty."

I thought Silverman's show went for a couple of seasons. I guess when she tweets clips from the show she's using old content.

Pitter patter, Steve.

You need to watch Hulu to watch Letterkenny.

Figure it out, fuck.

I'm glad that Letterkenny is on Hulu now, so I don't have to lend out my betamax copies to my USA friends.

I watched one episode of "The Venture Bros" and laughed hard. Satan goes to a Halloween party dressed as Santa Claus. That show so matches my humor.

So far only one bad stretch of commercials, at the beginning of "The Venture Bros."

I will have to check out "Letterkenny."

Having Hulu also means that Doug doesn’t have to send me CBC’s weekly “Coronation Street” omnibus.

 

(Which leads me to wonder why CBS, through its Oz cousin Network 10, wouldn’t stream Eleven’s – er, 10 Peach’s – “Neighbours” on All-Access…)
