Review: Hulu.com


Today I am going to review Hulu.com. This is another one of your internet TV sites, but don't be driven away because of this detail. This website isn't like YouTube or Veoh, it includes actual TV shows and movies, and a pretty decent selection. And while watching, it has features such as lowering the lights, ( the website is completely dimmed except for the video, to prevent distractions), and opening a re-sizable pop-out window to view your show/movie. Hulu also has better than decent quality videos, especially when compared to YouTube, Google Video, and many other popular visual media websites.
While Hulu has quite a large variety of selection, but many of these TV shows or movies do not have full-length episodes, or movies. They have a few, but not much. This is a big downside, because this website has a lot of potential, it is nearly perfect. The way they showcase the episodes/movies, and their categorizing are near flawless. If there were some full-length variety, then I would give this a 5, but not today.

While this may be subject to change very soon, currently I give Hulu.com 3 mustaches out of 5 mustaches, just because of the lack of variety.
