No, bullshit. It was like 3 shows due to old licensing. This is not a thing
Idk why you're trying to tell me bullshit to something I experienced for myself, but okay. I can tell you that it did happen and it pissed me off, and it was enough to make me never want to go back. Plus (I'm not sure if this is still the case) they wouldn't let me fast-forward commercials on programs I had recorded from their live TV programs. Even though I had also paid the extra there to get no/fewer ads. Something like $80 a month at the time.
So yeah, no bullshit. Sorry to disappoint you.
I don't know what the fuck you paid for, but it wasn't the ad free service the rest of us got. They have a web page dedicated to explaining the few exceptions they had to ad-free. Live TV is a separate thing from normal Hulu. Are you confusing the two?
Idk why you're coming at me, dude. Does Hulu pay your bills or something? Like I said, I'm just describing my experience, idk why you're being a confrontational ass about it.
Maybe my language was confrontational, so that's on me. You are describing something that is wrong, over and over. From what I can gather, you saw ads on Hulu TV and got mad since you are paying for no ads. They are two different services though and ad free doesn't apply to the Hulu TV stuff. I asked if you were maybe confusing the two, but ignored that.
Honestly I don't know why you care so much. This isn't debate class, I don't really need to defend myself to some rando on the internet who decided to make a corporation their white-knight crusade for the day. I detailed an experience I had with the company a few years back. That's it. I'm not going back to them, because like most streaming platforms I think they're shite.
Nope, not debate class and you don't have to defend yourself. Yet, here we are ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh my God. Grow up. No one here even watched those shows
Edit: I just checked. It's greys anatomy. That's it. And it's out of their control. Now, if you watch that show, definitely a deal breaker. Cancel Hulu. Otherwise, what are we even talking about?
What are you talking about? There is literally no impact to anyone complaining about this. Insanity
