They did the same thing at the same time last year. It was renewed on another year long contract. I don't think it's going anywhere.

Netflix also dropped X-Files!
cfcannon
Can't stand Hulu. Paying for commercials is nuts.
VelociraptorStalin
Only season 7 is on Hulu as of right now. Hopefully they'll pick the rest of them up. But usually Hulu only has the current season.
Also, Netflix doesn't care. They're not trying to be hulu or a online blockbuster. They want to be HBO and Showtime.
Kougeru
They started off as a mail in alternative to blockbuster
RocketRodster
That was then, this is now.
And they've pivoted. They increasingly don't care about licensing shows and movies and care about making original content, a la HBO.

Netflix lost x-files. Does Hulu have x-files?
Yes, anything else I can google for you?

DarkZalgo
Weird because I would assume Netflix has much more money than hulu. Their service is so much better.
[deleted]
Seeing as netflix has a net worth about twice that of hulu's plus the quality of life improvements they have, it's a pretty safe assumption.
causticcoquette
Getting worse. I hate how they have sequels but not the originals of movies.
SparklesTheDiseaseFairie
They have all the beginners, just only on disc
ButtMagnet
Only the us even has that afaik
FuckTheUSCjrShamecocks
That depends on where you are. The US has Captain America : civil war but not Age of Ultron. The Dark Knight movies are the same way.
homicidalslayer
Google "Hulu parent companies." Also, Hulu viewership can be factored into next-day air ratings so if you actually want a show renewed...
That's very interesting. I didn't know it was split between 4 companies. Although that explains why it sucks. If disney had a larger share
I'm sure hulu would be a much better service. But I assume comcast/fox are screwing it up the most.
MusicPirate
Anyone who's paying for Hulu is to blame.
Gonnaderpya
It's a small price to pay to get rid of cable entirely
dontcallmeplath
Yeah, but now ISPs who were making primarily their money off providing cable services are going to charge way more/have usage caps.
Cheomesh
Yep.
TotalSmartAss
I made an exodus and never looked back
TheDeadWillWalkInMyMemes
We're not sorry
escalinci
A lack of competition would lead to a worse deal in the long run, just look at cable itself.
ElegantKitty
Then get hulu? We cut the cord and we have Netflix, Hulu, Prime and Kodi. We pay because sometimes Kodi is a PoS, also it's Grandma friendly
Hulu is not available in all regions.
Guidocat
I use Hulu far more than Netflix, by a factor of 10. 12 Dollars for commercial free versions of all the cable I don't have.

As a Canadian, Hulu can go fuck itself.

InsomniacJustice
thats not how this works
that's not how any of this works
eion85
I don't understand people who pay to watch commercials.
...cable TV?
I don't have cable.
I don't care - you are aware it exists, yes? And that commercials subsidize the price you pay?
That is not a transaction I make, or think anyone should make. Traditional Television is a dead medium walking.
It's been more than a year since we got that commercial free plan we asked for. And its great.
justherefortheshitposting
Funny how history repeats. People used to pay for cable because it didn't have commercials. Then kept paying because they were complacent
lumpiestgenie
You must not understand the millions of people who have cable tv then. In fact, neither do I. Joke's on them
kilocron
I get you, but even then you can DVR through them. With Hulu you are usually stuck.
BreadyStinellis
Yeah, but you're paying 10x the price. Hulu is still a way better deal
ByTheLightOfDay
Precisely, thank you.
Hulu is $8 a month, pay $12 a month and it's commercial free.
Ah, Didn't know they'd added a commercial free option (finally), I'd still never pay 8 bucks to watch commercials.
HateMailHero
Not every show has commericals
If any of them do, it's a deal breaker.
Exactly why I stopped paying for Hulu, and have been avoiding it since. Fuck paying to watch commercials.
PacifistPlaythroughs
If you pay the same amount for Hulu as Netflix costs, it has no commercials.
That's what I do and it's SO much better than Netflix for the wife and I now.
It's all preference. Hulu has a lot more animated movies/shows and some older TV shows but Netflix has the best movies & original series.
20sidedhero
Or, more likely, Hulu's contract with Fox Animation (Simpsons, Bob's Burgers, etc) became a bit more ironclad.
dizzyturtle
Hulu has Attack on Titan season 2. Hulu > Netflix. Too bad I only have Netflix. :(
PoesCrow
Is that why they took down x-files?
Solonoid
Correct, they're also removing several seasons of American Dad, on April 18th.

Is Hulu actually doing well? I feel like I'm being generous if I say it has 10% the mind share of Netflix

IIRC Netflix is doing better and better the more originals it puts out, which has also driven more people to Hulu which has a bigger (1)
HomelessJesus
I have both, I like Hulu because it adds current run episodes to a lot of shows about a week after they air usually
Spongybunny
They have Golden Girls now, so they're doing awesome in my book.
rockfireman
Theres good stuff on Hulu I can't find anywhere else, but it doesn't update as much as Netflix. I enjoy seeing episodes as they premiere.
ohiohobbyzooadventures
I honestly prefer Hulu because I'm a TV show, not a movie, person. I like more teen/adult themed cartoons and Hulu has more of those.
Netflix originals are amazing though, I love Bojack, OITNB, Stranger Things, Trailer Park Boys, Arrested Development, F is for Family...
am0k
It is a necessity for cable cutters. I watch Netflix maybe once a month, Hulu every night. So much more (good) content.
RPhilbin83
I personally like it so much better. Had it since it started and find it has most shows I'm looking for (usually don't use for movies)
lostnortherner
Same. I like it much better than Netflix, am more of a TV watcher than movies. Also worth the fee just for every episode of The Golden Girls
TV library, due to being owned by Fox and NBC and all that. (2)
droomangroup
Hulu got better when it added the commercial free option. I like a lot of Netflix originals, but Hulu has Cartoon Network and Comedy Central
LadyBaconTits
Let's hope it stays commercial free. Last time they had a commercial free option they added commercials.
and some decent NBC shows and lately a pretty good Movie selection
guerillagirl
When people cut cable they'll often go to Hulu bc shows are released there next day. You have to wait with Netflix due to licensing.
MadMerlyn
Both are inexpensive enough that many cord cutters do both. I cut the cord back before it was the cool thing to do 1/2
I have 4 services, which amounts to a standard cable bill I think, but with a lot more value. SlingTV, Amazon, NFlix, Hulu.
amastine
We have Amazon prime (definitely worth on student account) Netflix and Crunchyroll
dont listen to anyone else. HULU is garbage. they just have deep pockets to buy licensing for shows that were once popular.
If you want shows that are only on Hulu, then it's fine, but the ads still suck ass.
as a south park fan and netflix subscriber, i was furious when hulu bought it. zero OC and so many ads. fuck HULU
Hulu actually has quite a few original shows. Most aren't very good, but there's a couple gems in their lineup.
Kaesden
I tried Hulu once, saw I was still seeing ads on a paid account. Wtf am I paying for? Canceled within 5 min. Never again.
If a show has ads I won't watch it for any reason, ever. It's only fine if you're willing to allow that garbage propaganda into your life.
pain938
I paid for a month of Hulu started a show the show played an ad even though I was paying for the service and I immediately canceled my sub1/
thefancytaco
well the version with ads is half the price of netflix, and the one without ads is nearly the same price, so...
everettscott
Ssssh, let them complain over a dollar.
I'm not paying money to watch ads. If I'm paying money for a service it better be fucking ad free.
UpvoteMe4goodluck
They have a premium version with no ads for an extra 4$. Plus it is no different than cable, dish, and direct TV! You are just used to those
I don't watch cable. I only HAVE cable because my choice was either a homephone or cable with net and not JUST net.
ScrooblyDoobles
They have ad free for a little bit more IIRC. Worth it for me because I keep up with shows like B99 on there.
rwigsPuppyLifter
Nine Nine!
It's like $7 to get a membership with ads and $11 to get add free. It sucks cause I had a month of no ads somehow and then they showed up.
ClitKicker87
Cable TV is pretty much exactly what you just said your problem with Hulu was. Except cable is more expensive, has longer ads, and (1/)2
Doesn't give you as much freedom as to what shows you watch at what times. (2/2)
GratefulUndead
yet you've been paying for TV with nonstop ads for years.
RocksWorld
If this guy is this adamant about Hulu having ads I'd bet a dollar he hasn't paid for cable in years.
WebDevJewelerReptileLover
You do realize that that is what cable TV is right?
cadmiumblue
Can't imagine why everyone keeps pulling the plug on cable tv. Maybe if we pay more for more ads that'll convince others to pay.

RedTheAlpaca
Netflix also dropped X-Files!
cfcannon
Can't stand Hulu. Paying for commercials is nuts.
VelociraptorStalin
Only season 7 is on Hulu as of right now. Hopefully they'll pick the rest of them up. But usually Hulu only has the current season.
IAmGodot
Also, Netflix doesn't care. They're not trying to be hulu or a online blockbuster. They want to be HBO and Showtime.
Kougeru
They started off as a mail in alternative to blockbuster
RocketRodster
That was then, this is now.
IAmGodot
And they've pivoted. They increasingly don't care about licensing shows and movies and care about making original content, a la HBO.

Netflix lost x-files. Does Hulu have x-files?

Yes, anything else I can google for you?

Weird because I would assume Netflix has much more money than hulu. Their service is so much better.

DarkZalgo
Seeing as netflix has a net worth about twice that of hulu's plus the quality of life improvements they have, it's a pretty safe assumption.
causticcoquette
Getting worse. I hate how they have sequels but not the originals of movies.
SparklesTheDiseaseFairie
They have all the beginners, just only on disc
ButtMagnet
Only the us even has that afaik
FuckTheUSCjrShamecocks
That depends on where you are. The US has Captain America : civil war but not Age of Ultron. The Dark Knight movies are the same way.
homicidalslayer
Google "Hulu parent companies." Also, Hulu viewership can be factored into next-day air ratings so if you actually want a show renewed...
DarkZalgo
That's very interesting. I didn't know it was split between 4 companies. Although that explains why it sucks. If disney had a larger share
DarkZalgo
I'm sure hulu would be a much better service. But I assume comcast/fox are screwing it up the most.
MusicPirate
Anyone who's paying for Hulu is to blame.
Gonnaderpya
It's a small price to pay to get rid of cable entirely
dontcallmeplath
Yeah, but now ISPs who were making primarily their money off providing cable services are going to charge way more/have usage caps.
Cheomesh
Yep.
TotalSmartAss
I made an exodus and never looked back
TheDeadWillWalkInMyMemes
We're not sorry
escalinci
A lack of competition would lead to a worse deal in the long run, just look at cable itself.
ElegantKitty
Then get hulu? We cut the cord and we have Netflix, Hulu, Prime and Kodi. We pay because sometimes Kodi is a PoS, also it's Grandma friendly
DoorCellar
Hulu is not available in all regions.
Guidocat
I use Hulu far more than Netflix, by a factor of 10. 12 Dollars for commercial free versions of all the cable I don't have.
Grrrg
As a Canadian, Hulu can go fuck itself.
JadedWombat
People PAY for that shit?
SandalsandSocks
Hulu is better than netflix. Sorry not sorry.
slappyhamsalads
I'd disagree with you, but hulu has Rick & Morty
SquirtleSquad420
And all of adventure time.
TearingAway
and most other current tv shows.
chendy801
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck....
GiantGorilla
Shouldn't it be anyone who isn't paying for Hulu is to lame because if Hulu was making money they would be more lenient with the shows?
YoullBePerfectWhenYoureDead
Yeah because a business is gonna let up once they get ahead.
InsomniacJustice
thats not how this works
slappyhamsalads
that's not how any of this works
eion85
I don't understand people who pay to watch commercials.
Cheomesh
...cable TV?
eion85
I don't have cable.
Cheomesh
I don't care - you are aware it exists, yes? And that commercials subsidize the price you pay?
eion85
That is not a transaction I make, or think anyone should make. Traditional Television is a dead medium walking.
Guidocat
It's been more than a year since we got that commercial free plan we asked for. And its great.
justherefortheshitposting
Funny how history repeats. People used to pay for cable because it didn't have commercials. Then kept paying because they were complacent
lumpiestgenie
You must not understand the millions of people who have cable tv then. In fact, neither do I. Joke's on them
kilocron
I get you, but even then you can DVR through them. With Hulu you are usually stuck.
BreadyStinellis
Yeah, but you're paying 10x the price. Hulu is still a way better deal
ByTheLightOfDay
Precisely, thank you.
TheDeadWillWalkInMyMemes
Hulu is $8 a month, pay $12 a month and it's commercial free.
eion85
Ah, Didn't know they'd added a commercial free option (finally), I'd still never pay 8 bucks to watch commercials.
HateMailHero
Not every show has commericals
eion85
If any of them do, it's a deal breaker.
ByTheLightOfDay
Exactly why I stopped paying for Hulu, and have been avoiding it since. Fuck paying to watch commercials.
PacifistPlaythroughs
If you pay the same amount for Hulu as Netflix costs, it has no commercials.
TheDeadWillWalkInMyMemes
Hulu is $8 a month, pay $12 a month and it's commercial free.
HateMailHero
That's what I do and it's SO much better than Netflix for the wife and I now.
FuckTheUSCjrShamecocks
It's all preference. Hulu has a lot more animated movies/shows and some older TV shows but Netflix has the best movies & original series.
20sidedhero
Or, more likely, Hulu's contract with Fox Animation (Simpsons, Bob's Burgers, etc) became a bit more ironclad.
dizzyturtle
Hulu has Attack on Titan season 2. Hulu > Netflix. Too bad I only have Netflix. :(
PoesCrow
Is that why they took down x-files?
Solonoid
Correct, they're also removing several seasons of American Dad, on April 18th.
TemporalOnline
Ironclad you say? http://orig02.deviantart.net/e584/f/2016/138/8/b/torbjorn_by_scebiqu-da2xolf.jpg

I'm getting sick and tired of Hulu. Rat bastards keeping me from watching Preacher.
tr3buchet
One of the reasons i do not subscribe to netflix. Once content always content or i have zero interest in your service
Mentok
Screw hulu
IHateBeingBipolarItsAwesome
If I understood right it's because some license ran out and it needs to renewed.Visit https://help.netflix.com/en/titlerequest to request it

Thanks for doing the legwork! I did my part. I'M HELPING!

that is sad and i might stop using netflix if that is the case.

amazing what you can do with disney money

Hulu just got rid of The daily show w/ Trevor Noah.. T_T..
gakwat
the comedy central app has it for free

likely it exited a media window for SVOD and has exclusivity with another media (VOD, EST) https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/bobs-burgers

I might deal with this kind of stuff for work ;-)

Or Fox in general since they've removed 3 seasons of Bones as well.

Season 1-4 in US. I just started and got through S2, but then missed the whole Gormogon arc.

I'm so mad I was watching them and then they took it away when I was about 4 episodes from finishing season 3

But Netflix still has Archer, which is Fox Animation. FXX

Archer is on hulu.
GuyInTheBack
What does that all even mean?
coralinedoll
Yes, but it is also adult swim, and they don't give a fuck, they wouldn't be locked into a single channel deal, everyone wants archer lol
MustacheTheWhale
They won't have the latest season on Netflix tho
herpopottomas
I'd buttfuck my own grandma over my grandpa's open grave before I sign up for that Hulu bullshit.

Hulu is own by the same company as Fox
prepbatman
not really...
Srcsqwrn
Fox is evil, and needs to die.
StoopidStoner
Owned
thisismyusernamenowiguess
So that's why it sucks so hard
TruthBehindTheLies
Yeah but they do a lot of shady dealings with the sub companies so they get taxed less. Nothing better than buying your own stuff I guess.
Anononononon
Sorta, i mean technically comcast owns the most of it,but they aren't allowed to vote.
lurklurkingmclurk

Hence the reason why all the CW shows left Hulu, even though WB also owns part of Hulu.

Is Hulu actually doing well? I feel like I'm being generous if I say it has 10% the mind share of Netflix
oshodatwan
Damn, don't hear "mind share" too much on here. Dnt knw hulu but flix is sophisticated af. Watched a talk on thr IT infra. It's nuts!!
A10kendall
What did I just read...
oshodatwan
Haha. Space limits man. IT infrastructure yo. It's nuts
srsfaceI8C
IIRC Netflix is doing better and better the more originals it puts out, which has also driven more people to Hulu which has a bigger (1)
HomelessJesus
I have both, I like Hulu because it adds current run episodes to a lot of shows about a week after they air usually
Spongybunny
They have Golden Girls now, so they're doing awesome in my book.
rockfireman
Theres good stuff on Hulu I can't find anywhere else, but it doesn't update as much as Netflix. I enjoy seeing episodes as they premiere.
ohiohobbyzooadventures
I honestly prefer Hulu because I'm a TV show, not a movie, person. I like more teen/adult themed cartoons and Hulu has more of those.
ohiohobbyzooadventures
Netflix originals are amazing though, I love Bojack, OITNB, Stranger Things, Trailer Park Boys, Arrested Development, F is for Family...
am0k
It is a necessity for cable cutters. I watch Netflix maybe once a month, Hulu every night. So much more (good) content.
RPhilbin83
I personally like it so much better. Had it since it started and find it has most shows I'm looking for (usually don't use for movies)
lostnortherner
Same. I like it much better than Netflix, am more of a TV watcher than movies. Also worth the fee just for every episode of The Golden Girls
srsfaceI8C
TV library, due to being owned by Fox and NBC and all that. (2)
droomangroup
Hulu got better when it added the commercial free option. I like a lot of Netflix originals, but Hulu has Cartoon Network and Comedy Central
LadyBaconTits
Let's hope it stays commercial free. Last time they had a commercial free option they added commercials.
droomangroup
and some decent NBC shows and lately a pretty good Movie selection
guerillagirl
When people cut cable they'll often go to Hulu bc shows are released there next day. You have to wait with Netflix due to licensing.
MadMerlyn
Both are inexpensive enough that many cord cutters do both. I cut the cord back before it was the cool thing to do 1/2
MadMerlyn
I have 4 services, which amounts to a standard cable bill I think, but with a lot more value. SlingTV, Amazon, NFlix, Hulu.
amastine
We have Amazon prime (definitely worth on student account) Netflix and Crunchyroll
DoctorSvenHoek
dont listen to anyone else. HULU is garbage. they just have deep pockets to buy licensing for shows that were once popular.
Spongybunny
If you want shows that are only on Hulu, then it's fine, but the ads still suck ass.
DoctorSvenHoek
as a south park fan and netflix subscriber, i was furious when hulu bought it. zero OC and so many ads. fuck HULU
MadMerlyn
Hulu actually has quite a few original shows. Most aren't very good, but there's a couple gems in their lineup.
Kaesden
I tried Hulu once, saw I was still seeing ads on a paid account. Wtf am I paying for? Canceled within 5 min. Never again.
cleverbeans
If a show has ads I won't watch it for any reason, ever. It's only fine if you're willing to allow that garbage propaganda into your life.
pain938
I paid for a month of Hulu started a show the show played an ad even though I was paying for the service and I immediately canceled my sub1/
thefancytaco
well the version with ads is half the price of netflix, and the one without ads is nearly the same price, so...
everettscott
Ssssh, let them complain over a dollar.
pain938
I'm not paying money to watch ads. If I'm paying money for a service it better be fucking ad free.
UpvoteMe4goodluck
They have a premium version with no ads for an extra 4$. Plus it is no different than cable, dish, and direct TV! You are just used to those
pain938
I don't watch cable. I only HAVE cable because my choice was either a homephone or cable with net and not JUST net.
ScrooblyDoobles
They have ad free for a little bit more IIRC. Worth it for me because I keep up with shows like B99 on there.
rwigsPuppyLifter
Nine Nine!
Spongybunny
It's like $7 to get a membership with ads and $11 to get add free. It sucks cause I had a month of no ads somehow and then they showed up.
ClitKicker87
Cable TV is pretty much exactly what you just said your problem with Hulu was. Except cable is more expensive, has longer ads, and (1/)2
ClitKicker87
Doesn't give you as much freedom as to what shows you watch at what times. (2/2)
GratefulUndead
yet you've been paying for TV with nonstop ads for years.
RocksWorld
If this guy is this adamant about Hulu having ads I'd bet a dollar he hasn't paid for cable in years.
WebDevJewelerReptileLover
You do realize that that is what cable TV is right?
cadmiumblue
Can't imagine why everyone keeps pulling the plug on cable tv. Maybe if we pay more for more ads that'll convince others to pay.
Jokesterwild
Who said any of us use that garbage
PedanticGonkDroid
Right, which is why we don't want it.
