We have both. Not that expensive compared to cable. I prefer HULU for TV series and Netflix for originals and movies. Also have Amazon, but mainly for shipping, music, and such


Same here....I actively watch content from all three....

Take it you didn't watch 11/22/63

Or The Handmaid's Tale

Or Harlots

I have cable, Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon (cause of prime). And we watch all of them.

We found the one person.

frick Hulu, it's all owned by the big cable companies, mainly Disney. The interface absolutely sucks and you still get ads on certain shows even after paying for the no commercial option.

I'll gladly miss out on the 2 good original shows they might have.

Netflix was cool 10 years ago. Now all their available movies are dookie.

I agree with you on this. Don't know why they ever changed it.


It's only $8 a month though. I'm not gonna get super picky over something so cheap.


But if I was forced to pick between Hulu and Netflix...Netflix wins in a landslide.

I used it for a week and cancelled. Just trying to binge a series is like pulling teeth. Netflix is the GOAT with how they have skip intro and bring the next episode up as the credits roll on the current one.

The one without ads was like $12 a month but still had ads on certain shows. Completely against the whole point of paying more.

I did, forgot that was Hulu original. Not a fan of The Handmaid's Tale, but my wife liked it.

Hulu's original content lags Netflix and Amazon quite a bit IMO.

The way someone explained it to me was Netflix for movies and Hulu for TV shows.

I have

Netflix
Amazon
YouTube Red.

I watch YT Red most because of documentaries, then Netflix for movies and Amazon. Haven't considered Hulu.

Agree with the consensus that if you have to pick one Netflix is the easy winner.

Probably Netlix for their original content and movies, but Hulu has some great 90's shows and just more tv shows you may like. It depends what you like to watch. Do a trial of both?

I would get plex and have some people with large servers add you as a friend and you can watch all their content for free on any device that gets the plex app. Reddit has a ton of people willing to add others.
