    Hulu isn't mine, it's on my roommates 360 in our living room, and the subscription is an ex-girlfriends haha.

    While you have your Hulu subscription, check out Vikings. I know it's on Hulu, but not on Netflix. If you haven't already watched it.

    There's a ton of options, I'm just trying to find the perfect one before I invest myself in multiple seasons of a show.

    Hulu is a different product than Netflix though. Pretty much the big thing they have going for them is the ability to watch current season episodes of TV shows. Netflix has great shows in their catalog but can't offer that (original programming aside of course). Hulu is great for people who don't have cable but want to keep up with current shows.

    Both are well worth every penny. But yeah, Netflix offers more bang for your buck.

    Right, but you can watch the latest season's episodes for free on the regular Hulu (not Hulu Plus). This is generally what I've always done.

    I had actually been excited to watch Modern Family... but Hulu literally only has the current season. That's pretty damn lame IMO.

    I remember signing up for a free month of Netflix and never looking back. Every time I do a free month of Hulu, I cancel it before I'm charged.

    I'm about to sign up for a free month of HBO NOW (their new standalone streaming service), and I expect I'll end up keeping it.

    Used to have cable/HBO, so I've been really missing out on some stuff lately. I always loved steeaming stuff on HBO GO.

    $15 seems a little high, but probably worth it, considering there's so much on HBO I still want to see.

    Does Hulu have every recent show? Is there a list of shows they do have?

    Basically I'd like to look at options so I can stop downloading shows since we don't most here anymore, or they run at stupid/inconsistent times.

    Every network (ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, etc) show's episodes should be up within 24 hours of airtime as far as I know.

    You wouldn't need a paid subscription to watch the latest network episodes unless you wanted to stream them though your TV.

    For example, I watched the entire current season of Parks & Rec on Hulu's site with no paid subscription.

    They're gonna have the majority (if not all) of your basic network TV shows.

    For any type of premium channel (Comedy Central, etc), I think you need a subscription to watch their shows. They're usually on within the next day or so as well. Although they've really been slipping on Workaholics.

    When I originally watched Mad Men for the first time I was watching it with my now ex girlfriend. She wasn't really all into it and I guess the negative comments while watching rubbed off on me so we stopped after about 4 episodes.

    I eventually gave the show another shot and liked it a lot more obviously. I would give Mad Men another shot and for more than just one episode. The show feels a lot different after the first one. Scene transitions, music, characters, etc. It doesn't even feel like a Mad Men episode looking back, more of just a focus on Don and trying to get you into his life.

    I have Netflix and HBO Go and I wouldn't even choose to have cable except it's provided at my complex.

    I'd like to take this opportunity to step outside of my GoTitans decorum to say
    FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK CABLE!!!

    I can find a hundred things to do other than pay stupid money for worthless fuggin tv and lousy customer "service". The only reason I've been watching anything at all in the past year is because I bought a cheap LED tv and a Roku stick.

    Thank god they dumped Roy. I'd had rather it been annoying @$$ Laurel but whatever. They had way too many heroes in the mix and Roy was mostly useless. Very disappointed in the way he was developed/utilized after becoming Arsenal. And how ridiculous was that Diggle explanation.... "This guy specializes in stabbing someone in just the right spot so they don't die... the tip of the blade was coated with blah blah blah" lol *PRONOUNCED EYE ROLL* If you have to explain something in that much detail you probably just shouldn't do it.

    And Thea at the end, are we to believe that the Demon's Head does not know how to properly murder someone? This is twice now with Oliver and now with Thea. I know Oliver was technically saved and maybe he meant to let Thea live? IDK, all these false deaths are getting lame.

    Also, I think the Ray/Atom character is dangerously close to overstaying his welcome. Hopefully that look he gave Felicity and Oliver at the end of this episode is a sign he's about to move on.

    Still unquestionably hooked on the show though lol. Bu it's gotten into legit soap opera territory now.

    Ra's knows that Oliver knows about the Lazarus Pits. Thea is bait to force him to accept the ring and gain access to the Pits. He pretty much announced it.
    I get the impression that Roy may be part of the anticipated spinoff..dunno.
