I just got Hulu and looking at the original shows. I am not familiar at all with what is showing!

As far as original shows the only one I've watched has been The Path. I think it's decent but I could see some people not liking it. There is a thread for Hulu, you might find some good suggestions in it.

I like The Path and Chance. I think those are the only Hulu originals I have seen.

Poking around tonight I saw 'Dirty Sexy Money' while searching for something else on ABC section. I can't remember if I finished watching that when it aired so I started it over. It's fun!

Yes so far not loving Hulu. I don't see any threads on the original series they have created. I started watching Harlots and just thought it was meh.

If you have cable or another means of watching regular broadcast shows it doesn't really have a lot to offer you. Unless you like watching broadcast shows you missed and they have them on there.

Are you only looking for original shows? Because Hulu offers a lot of current network television shows and has a lot of good movies. But as far as original shows go... if you like science fiction and time travel, I thought that 11.22.63 (TV Mini-Series 2016) was pretty good.

Just finished a short, 4 part, UK series with Julie Walters and Robbie Coltrane -- called "National Treasure"--about an aging British movie/tv star who is charged with rape by two women from his past...sort of like the US?Bill Cosby, Donald Trump scenarios in the news and others in the British press...
Told with some flashbacks---
Good acting by the two leads (Walters especially) script is OK although side-plot w/man's daughter is waffling...

I don't watch The Path but my son and his wife do and they like it
I use Hulu to catch up on some programs--like The Vikings and SVU
Hulu is good because it has Criterion movies which I watch from time to time
But lot of the offerings are ones that don't really interest me
I use my son's sign-in so it doesn't cost me anything...

If you have cable and broadcast channel's then Hulu isn't for you. If you are looking for more original shows, go to Netflix. While Hulu has some, it is still pretty far behind Netflix in that dept.

Amazon has some original programming
I enjoy the Bosch series because I enjoy the Connelly novels about Bosch
Man in the High Castle was well-reviewed but too dark for me
Quite a few others

You can Google up info about the various streaming channels
