Great site. How long with Hulu be in beta? I’d like to get it listed on http://www.RSSLiveTV.com

What the hulu’s going on here? I was just telling a friend about the site. Come back to visit and all of the shows are disappearing.

I thought the idea was to attract people to the site not create reasons to complain.

Old conversation with friends:
You should check out hulu. It’s a great site. I’ve spent hours there watching old shows and catching up on shows like the Family Guy. I didn’t realize how funny that was. You should check out the site.

New conversation with friends:
Sorry, I was going to send you that funny clip that I saw on hulu. I wanted to put it on my blog, but the clip is missing. I went to find that funny episode of Family Guy and the Office I was telling you about, but they’re gone. They do have more ads though. Oh…and by the way, they have some clips of former Presidents. Maybe I can put that on the blog.

I definitely have to invite some friends to this site. Hulu is my favorite website to see TV shows online. The other one have too many bugs and annoying advertisements.

Hey – great looking site – sadly, none of the video would work for me. guess I’ll try again sometime. in the meantime, tvguide video and comcast on-demand seem to have pretty much the same selection. I suggest the following – limit the flyout boxes so they don’t obscure the clickpoints. Also, my personal experience with tv and movies is the difficulty keeping organized: perhaps some type of spreadsheet checklist could be added for users like me to keep track of what we’ve watched – there’s too many shows to remember. Anyway, I hope you get the site up and running soon.

Loving HULU! When I embed programs on my blog it makes me feel like a program director at an affiliate station, if you will.

Excellent Idea, It worked well for g mail and hopefully it will do the same for hulu. Does the friend who joins also get 10 invites?

I absolutely love Hulu and all the great improvements you have added. I haven’t watched TV in over a year (why pay for 200+ channels with nothing on them…) and was watching my favorite shows online on the network sites. But their sites are so overloaded with ads/useless content/extra flash scripts which slowed the video stream to a crawl (and ironically, it was worse during their commercials).

I love how clean and simple your interface is. I even think the ads on here are more effective, it keeps the viewers centered on one brand throughout a show, but not annoying them with over saturation – just enough to be memorable. And the older shows you’ve brought back – awesome!

The playlists are wonderful as are the last playback, start/stop embedding, and full screen features. I’m definitely inviting my friends to your site – I’ve talked about Hulu often enough that’s for sure.

I also wanted to note something to some of the reviewers I’ve seen on the site… this site is a FREE service, so complaining about not getting more episodes (which are controlled by their respective networks anyway) is asinine. If you want more content, buy the DVDs.

Thank you, Hulu – you are doing a fantastic job!
