I have never had so many random issues with any site, like I have hulu. Seriously, the ads are the most annoying of all, but not just the ads bother me. I will legit sign on, correct gmail and password and it will pop up like it signed on (My boyfriends name and mine pop up) but as soon as it pops up and I click on a name, BAM! The screen goes back to the log in. I had this issue before and had to have hulu fix the issue. All of a sudden its happening again and again. I am done. I had Netflix before Hulu and never had any problems at all. I was very dissappointed and surely Hulu needs to get rid of their ads and fix their issues, or we are all just gonna run back to Netflix... smh
I am utterly exhausted with the agenda Hulu tries to push on its viewers. I started to watch a Hulu original series today called The First. I had gotten to the 3rd episode and was liking the show this far then boom a lesbian couple has to be in the show. Or particularly scen that is thown in to trailer to the LGBT community. I'm tired of this. I can't watch anything anymore now a day with out liberal progressive agendas being forced in my media and entertainment. The show is about sify space exploration to mars. What on earth is the point of putting pro LGBT scene in this show. I'm done with Hulu and they won't get another dime from me. I refuse to be forced to accept there agendas.
This service has more commercials than any free site I have used, AND THEN YOU GET A BILL! It is mind boggling how many ads you will watch. If you get lucky and it does not buffer, and you have not pressed any, and I mean any buttons, you may get to watch your program in double its runtime. Keep in mind this is only under PERFECT circumstances, on average it will take far longer. If you like paying to watch ads that Hulu is already being paid to air, then you have found your streaming service. Everyone else, RUN! And please do not give them your credit card #, you'll be sorry.
Service is horrible, at least once a day I get an error message that reads "Having trouble with this program" and cuts out, usually my local sports teams, so what happens is I miss at least 3 out of five weekly games that I got this service to watch. DO NOT WASTE your money on Hulu this is a terrible provider... period
Hulu is great if you are just looking to watch shows on Demand. But as far as live sporting events (which is the only reason I got Hulu because Netflix doesn't offer live TV) The games always seem to lag. I am a huge soccer fan and I am trying to watch a game on FS1 but I keep getting Playback Failure. Why am I paying $54 a month for this again? If I am paying that kind of money, there shouldn't be any lag or failure to play anything. I am currently watching this game elsewhere and the stream says FS1, so if that stream is working for FS1 then I don't understand why Hulu is having trouble playing it. Would be 5 star otherwise..
Hulu has not been working correctly to begin with and now somehow all my information is no longer attached to my account and it looks as if I cancelled my service, which I did not do, along with the fact that I also can not use the gift card I got as a Christmas gift. When I tried to chat with Hulu to fix this problem my wait time went from 1 minute to 30 minutes. Good thing I have Amazon Prime and Netflix. I will NEVER use Hulu again!
Over and over get a Hulu Error Code: Playlist 5... timed out, no matter what I try to watch. Try to report to support and their support link doesn't exist... The requested URL "[no URL]", is invalid.

You pay $8.00 a month and they still make you watch commercials! What's the point when you have on demand? Netflix doesn't make you watch commercials. Hulu is greedy. If it wasn't for commercials it wouldn't be bad.
I love Hulu A lot! And people that are posting bad reviews are the same one that is not making any sense. And a funny thing happened to me using Hulu. One of my Favorite shows said "exp_" and I wasn't freaking out until I keep seeing it every day. So I searched " what does it mean when a show says expire next to it" and it said that means they are taking the showdown. I was so sad. And I didn't finish all the episodes but I really watch all the episodes as soon as I read the Hulu expire thing. And yesterday the "exp disappeared";-;
I love their autoplay because it works like it should...with binge watching in mind. I also love their original programming (The Bear). However, it simply cannot make up for subpar Live Guide, the constant "we cannot play that right now", the confusing mess of the LIVE GUIDE design...it's so beyond logical I have to wonder who in the world is programming this $#*! show and is there ANY user testing before the slap it on the app? So POOR I simply can't take it anymore. Going back to YouTube Tv.
I think it is very misleading that we pay for the no commercial plan and yet STILL get advertisements! When I called about it because it doesn't make sense to me to pay extra for no commercials and to still have a ton of advertisements the customer service rep was quite irritating to deal with, and just informed me that we have to pay an Additional $15 to not have commercials?
Stupid $#*!s are elitists... I have $#*!ty tracfone, but guess what? Youtube works just fine! But these $#*!s and their $#*!ty $#*! app?! "$#*! you, we aren't the problem as to why you can't watch this, you are, the problem is on your end you poor, broke $#*! hoe! BUT KEEP PAYING US FOR LOUSY SERVICE $#*!! HAHAHA!" -_- NetFlix even works better... And NetFlix is kinda $#*!ty... But no, hulu can't match their competitor not youtube. That's $#*!ing sad and pathetic, and insulting beyond belief. -_- WELL! I guess these $#*!s DON'T want my money! Seriously, someone please tell them that their $#*! is worthless.
HULU cuts out and reboots whether your watching a TV show a movie or the Super Bowl. We wouldn't recommend purchasing HULU unless you like constant interruptions. It's definitely not worth the money. The only time your not interrupted is during the commercials.
As someone who has cut the cable and now rely on Hulu, Amazon Prime, Netflix, HBOGo, and CBS All Access, I thought I should review them. I give 4 stars because I find myself watching Hulu more than the rest. It was worth it to me to spring for the no commercial version. If that wasn't extra, I'd give 5 stars. The UI is kind of lame, but the content is current and commercial free.
Hulu is bad service and they want you to pay more to get rid of them netflex is awesome and great service I wouldn't have hulu ever for these reasons of commercials in there shows I wouldn't pay them more or subscribe to them at all...
Hulu offers no ad service, and while I understand I'm seeing these on Hulu live based on network ownership, I don't understand why I'm seeing A LOT of ads during movies when I'm paying for no ads. Hulu is taking customers money for a service they are not providing as well as making money from Advertisers who are placing ads on the Hulu platform. This isn't right and I see why the reviews have low rating.
First of all every show it cuts off the last few minutes always the last word that sometimes can be very interesting and closure.
Secondly, they discourage watching without WiFi by every few minutes it needs to be reloaded and you ultimately miss 1/4 of the show from all the reloads. But on the craftmatic beds or some paid programming magically it never cuts off.
Third I cancelled cable because the bill was always changing magically and suddenly it was $1 here and $1 dollar there and low and behold the same thing started happening with Hulu so yeah I canceled
There are much better services out there that aren't doing sneaky things to their customers
Hulu isn't terrible or great. They're kinda like oatmeal. Yeaaaaaa, you'll eat it. 2 main things r content. 1) not enough of it and 2) u can't download like u can on NF, prime, hbomax, Disney. If u want to download u can but only if u pay for the more expensive service. That is so shady. Seriously, just give me it. The days of dangling the carrot to get people to buy is such an ancient business strategy. It just doesn't work. Waaay to many options for hulu to be playing kiddie games. So I cancelled. Plus the orginals is the least of the bunch. Not enough of em and more importantly not enough good ones.
Hulu screwed me over. I tried to cancel my account twice, and both times it didn't go through. They charged me anyway and overdrafted my account twice. When I tried to have them compensate me for the charges, they refunded only one month and told me I was screwed for my overdraft fees that wouldn't have happened if Hulu hadn't messed up. I hate Hulu and want everyone to know that they can't be trusted.
Hulu what are you thinking? It must be make believe like cnn news, did you actually air a Hulu original show about hillary clinton? This guy oops, i think maybe lady, is the BIGGEST LIAR, since spectrum news. She is a fake, she cares about herself ONLY, she is a thief and you are making more money for her. You have to have your head examined or maybe you are part of the problem, not the solution in our Great Nation, that President Trump is Making Great Again after the nobama years. I am going to cancel my subscription and I urge everyone who reads this to do the same, if you are as unlucky as me to have had hulu.
Answer: Not worth it since they updated their interface into an unusable mess. Customer service is awful, stay far away.
Answer: Happened to me. Stay away from hulu. My systems is high speed and works great with YouTube 4k and Netflix 4K HDR. Hulu obviously is bandwidth limited which might work for customers who watch old movies but their technology is not good for 1080P and modern technology.
Answer: It's hulu yet clearing the cashe every time before starting Hulu is substandard there overloaded
Answer: Yes & with Hulu Live you get all of the local channels like CBS, NBC, Fox & ABC. The shows are clearer too because of the way they come in from their On Demand libraries. I love Hulu Live & was so tired of Dish for a few reasons. You should just try it. You get the first seven days free & can cancel anytime. No contracts, equipment or bullshit. All you need is a good strong internet signal which most of us have today. My monthly bill was $100 with Dish. My new Hulu Live bill is $80, but that includes no commercials & an extended cloud DVR where you can fast forward through commercials on recorded shows. You also get access to their whole Hulu library.
Hulu's reputation is marked by a diverse content library and the appeal of timely access to popular TV shows and movies, which many customers appreciate. However, significant concerns have emerged regarding technical performance, including frequent buffering, app freezes, and navigation difficulties, leading to frustration among users. Additionally, issues with customer service, such as unresponsive support and billing discrepancies, have been highlighted. The overall sentiment indicates that while Hulu offers valuable content, persistent operational problems and a growing dissatisfaction with ad frequency may push customers toward alternative streaming services.
