Through Cyber Monday, Hulu is available for just $0.99/month for an entire year – down from $9.99/month. That's 90% off, and easily the best deal you'll get on a streaming subscription right now.
Similarly, the Disney+ bundle is offered at $2.99/month for a year, down from $10.99/month, making these arguably the best of the Cyber Monday streaming deals available. Don't miss out – this deal expires after Cyber Monday.
What Can You Watch on Hulu?
Hulu stands out as one of the top streaming platforms today, yet it’s often underrated. With movies like the Oscar-winning Anatomy of a Fall and critically acclaimed Talk to Me, and standout Emmy-winning TV series such as Shogun, Abbott Elementary, The Bear, and Only Murders in the Building, its library simply has an endless amount of of shows and movies to watch.
Let's start at the top and mention 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 The Penguin 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.)
- Movies (HBO, Hulu Originals, anime films, etc.)
- Sports (NHL, Soccer, MLB, Auto Racing, NFL, College Football, PGA, Tennis, etc.)
- News (ABC News Live, Good Morning America, World News Tonight, 20/20, The View, etc.)
Hulu TV
Hulu has some amazing shows, both original and licensed, in its roster. 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. On top of that, there's What We Do in the Shadows, Modern Family, Cougar Town, Broad City, Abbott Elementary, and Drunk History; plenty of great stuff to get into, regardless of your comedic sensibilities.
It's also home to some big originals, like The Bear, 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 (which Hulu rebooted), Family Guy, and King of the Hill (which will also be rebooted on Hulu).
Anime staples like Cowboy Bebop and Trigun are available, and Hulu is one of the better simulcast hubs outside of Crunchyroll for many new anime series all year long. If you want more youth-friendly fun, Hulu also has Cartoon Network staples, like Gravity Falls, Steven Universe, and Adventure Time, and other revamped '90s classics, like Animaniacs and Curious George.
The Future of Hulu
Hulu is only going to get bigger. Beyond it being awarded the best streaming service of 2023 by us and receiving a 9/10 in our updated Hulu review, it was fully brought into the Disney ecosystem last November 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 Emmy-sweeping Shogun.
What Other Streaming Services Have Cyber Monday Deals?
Hulu was one of the first official streaming deals announced for Black Friday/Cyber Monday, alongside Paramount+. More services have rolled out their best offers even before Black Friday started to lure in subscribers, but this is still the best deal you'll get for Hulu and Disney+, specifically. The discounted 12-month subscriptions are the ideal ways to try out a new streaming service and see if the library keeps you around.
