The bundle can be purchased on any of the three streaming services and starts at $16.99/month for the ad-supported tier or $29.99/month for ad-free access across all three platforms.

What can you watch on Hulu?
There is a bonkers amount of shows and movies you can watch on Hulu. Let’s start at the top and simply talk about the verticals on offer with the base subscription, because if we also talk about what is available via Disney+, ESPN+, or live TV, we’ll be here forever. (You can also sync up Hulu with HBO to gain access to things like Succession and the new season of House of the Dragon.)
Here’s what you get:
- Network and Hulu Original television shows (AMC, Adult Swim, ABC, A&E, FX, etc.)

Hulu television
Hulu has some amazing shows, including many that are finished or are ongoing. For comedy, Community and New Girl are awesome for self-contained highjinks, and It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia has a whopping 16 seasons available. What We Do In The Shadows, Modern Family, Cougar Town, Broad City, Abbott Elementary, and Drunk History; there is a ton of great stuff to get into, whether your sense of humor is edgy or not.
There are also some big originals, like The Bear, The Old Man, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Only Murders In The Building.
As far as animated fare, there are modern adult classics like Rick and Morty and Bob’s Burgers, as well as Futurama, Family Guy, and King of the Hill. Anime staples like Cowboy Bebop are also available. And if you want to bring more youth-friendly fun, Gravity Falls, Steven Universe, Animaniacs, Adventure Time, and Curious George are just a small sample of what Hulu has available.
The future of Hulu
Hulu isn’t going anywhere. As a matter of fact, beyond it being awarded the best streaming service of 2023 by us and receiving a 9/10 in our updated Hulu review, it was bought in full by Disney in November last year and the House of Mouse has created a one-app experience for those bundling Hulu and Disney+. With an FX partnership, Hulu is also home to those shows, including the latest drama miniseries, Shogun.
