Awesome site! Miss last night's TV show? Chances are they'll have it and it's not the blurry or camcorder quality pictures. They're prefect quality and offer some in HD. The site is done with cooperation from NBC and Fox so lot of the shows by them or affiliated networks gets put on here. It's because of this site, I sometimes don't get as much work done as I should when I'm at work.^^;
Will not let me log into hulu, but shows account as payed... extreme long waits on hold time. Get a customer service rep after lengthy wait and he places me on hold while he locates my account. Like he has to go to a file room or something... this is the worst company with... indifferent... does not care about customers or service... they got their last money form me every...
Forget about the annoying ads. I get it, they have to make money. My issues with Hulu are that it's not user friendly, doesn't offer intuitive navigation and the layout is clunky at best! Haven't the developers tried Netflix and prime? How do they not offer restart episode? Why is it so hard to see what episodes you've watched and go to specific episodes? For the love of God why does it take so long to log in and get started? It's like the developers don't actually use the app or it would be much easier! If the Handmaids Tale was available literally ANYWHERE ELSE I would cancel my subscription. I hate Hulu so much.
Most aggravating video steaming service I have ever experienced. Displays adds even though you pay 7.99 a month for it. Displays far more adds than you would ever anticipate. User interface is very confusing and unhelpful. I feel that I have completely wasted 7.99 even though that amount of money means nothing to me. Please do not cause yourself the same frustration by purchasing this service. I spent 8 dollars to raise my blood pressure significantly. Terrible service.
They have more ads than regular tv. Not worth it at all, you can't watch anything without an 90 second ad every 5 min. " new shows" ha. Hulu is trash and not worth it, trust me, you would be better off buying YouTube tv.
Like a review I previously saw. It takes hours to watch a 21 minute episode because of constant loading and freezing. At time it'll even cut off I. The middle of the show and say there's a connection error. It buffers like crazy it gives me anxiety! I nearly broke my TV several times. For this much "high tech" services in the world there should not this many issues. Netflix is smooth. I have to keep turning my TV off n on to try to get better connection. Its horrible
This is the worst streaming available. If shows were amazing maybe I'd try to figure out why. It is so bad I can't believe anyone pays for it. Buffers all the time. And that's when it's working. Usually it isn't.
Watching my favorite basketball team. Seesaw game. We're up by 2 with 30 seconds remaining. Commercial... HuLu switches to PGA golf coverage! Who won? I had to Google it to find out. Pathetic. Hulu offers no pathway that I could find for customer service or complaints. I'll be switching to another streaming service!
I used to love Hulu so much but the quality of the app has gotten horrible over time. I've called the customer service center and they say they are aware of the issue but it hasn't been fixed. When you watch a series if you stop in the middle of an episode it won't play back from where you left off like Netflix. You have to either watch the episode again or you have to forward to where you left off. Omg Hulu get this fixed. Hulu doesn't remember what episodes you have watched if you start a series over. You literally have to write down where you left off before you log off or even pause the show for more than ten minutes. It's a hot mess. I want to cancel the account so much.
I love this site because they also sport some great older flicks. Plus you can really sink your teeth into the most recent episodes with out having to thumb a TV Guide. I would really like to see them put some more classics on the site.
Also I would not mind a few ads if it meant that I could get their premium streaming for free.
Biggest concern: we had to delete and restore our Hulu account because of a Roku issue and we were restored to someone else's account! Multiple efforts to correct were unsuccessful. Contacted Hulu phone support at 10 pm. Call was answered promptly, and their instructions resolved the issue quickly (leading us to suspect that this may be a relatively common occurrence?). That is a concerning breach of privacy. Other concerns: frequent 'failures to record'; generally non-intuitive user interface.
I love Hulu. Great shows. Low monthly price. Although, sadly, I have noticed that some of my favorite shows are being taken off hulu and on to their own network apps, i. E. Downtown Abby. Only downside is that you can't use it internationally.
Seriously? So I'm paying for a service to watch TV shows with $#*!ing commercials in them! Absolutely ridiculous.
Wait a second I also have prime, and guess what they remove the commercials on the TV series that they play!
Hulu get your $#*! together!
Trying to get Hulu on my TV. I needed help with that also needing them to take my credit card number they hung up on me two times in a row and they said they had a problem, I fully agree... laughing in the background talking about things that had nothing to do with helping me a new customer! Hulu needs to address this completely unprofessional behavior! This is an understatement... I let her lie did not subscribe to their service I know that I'm only one person very disappointed
Can I give no stars? After having Hulu for a week, I lost closed captions for Hulu on my tv, but not on my iPad. After a frustrating hour on the phone help line with two reps, I had no Hulu service at all on either device. Neither rep seemed to have a clue. In fact, I think the first gal realized she had screwed me up bad and deliberately disconnected me. I cancelled rather than go through more torture. Damn shame because I really wanted to binge on Fargo.
Hulu was PERFECT. The shows are great, and they have a lot of great movies. It was until they decided to hit you with an 90 second ad every 5 minutes where my opinion completely changed. As soon as I finish the show I'm watching (too far into it to quit now), I'm done. It's beyond frustrating and not worth the $$$.
The only justification for putting up with the commercials on Hulu when Netflix costs about the same without commercials, is availability of content. Hulu has TV show episodes sooner than Netflix, but does not have older episodes. I was out of the country for about 8 weeks and found that a show I had been watching was only available for the previous 5 episodes. You cannot start from the beginning of most long running series.
Although you can click on whether an ad is relevant, it will make no difference to what commercials you see. For example, I am absolutely not interested in buying a car, clicked "not relevant" to hundreds of car commercials, but car commercials continue to be the most common ones shown.
Hulu has raised their monthly fee and I cancelled because they're not worth the extra money. There's only one channel I really watch -- TCM. I'll figure out another way to watch it. When I told their representative I wanted to cancel (the week before the end of that month's subscription), they told me it would be yet another month before it could be cancelled. I don't like being hi-jacked when it comes to my money. They will never get my business again. They have entirely too many "junk" channels for my taste. I'm not that into sports, murder or news.
2 days into the free period. The commercials are ill-placed. The buffering is constant. I don't have these issues with other streaming platforms. There is exclusive content that I want to see but so far I'm getting loading errors.
Service constantly resets to make me watch commercials after just returning from them. I can't make it through a show without it resetting multiple times. I ran Speed test and was fine, their service is the killer. STAY AWAY
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 has a rating of 1.7 stars from 1,179 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally dissatisfied with their purchases. Reviewers dissatisfied with Hulu most frequently mention customer service, credit card and free trial. Hulu ranks 200th among Streaming Movies sites.
