Online TV
I think I’ve just found my favorite online tech addiction. I’ve seen the commercial for Hulu before, but I never thought about checking it out until a friend of mine introduced me to it. Hulu is an online video service that offers hit TV shows, movies and clips at Hulu.com and other online destination sites – all for free, anytime in the U.S. Hulu brings together a large selection of videos from more than 130 content providers, including FOX, NBC Universal, MGM, Sony Pictures Television, Warner Bros. and more. Users can choose from more than 1000 current primetime TV hits such as The Simpsons, Family Guy, Alf, Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids, Ghostbusters, The Karate Kid, and clips from Saturday Night Live, Friends and other popular TV shows and movies.
During full length episodes, you have to watch a 30 second commercial, but it’s really not that big of a deal for what you get. It really is just one more way to get your fix of television. With faster Internet speeds we are going to see more companies like this popping up. Hulu seems to have a good network of television stations which will allow them to have better shows than some other companies I’ve seen attempt this. Check out the listing of full episodes, clips and movies they offer. Here’s the commercial that aired during the Superbowl.

Thanks Joel.
I’m hooked. When you log in, you can subscribe to different shows. When they update the site with one of your shows it will send you an email. They have Fat Albert, but they need some more black shows.
