Has anyone used this site here? What do you think of it. I'm watching tv shows on it more than on my DVR.
Anyone use Hulu?

I just went to their site only to discover that streaming is only available in the US (I'm in Canada).

Love it.
They do stream from other sites, too, such as ABC. I prefer their in-house interface and streaming. Very slick. And the commercials are short enough that they're not irritating.

Try surfthechannel. It's what I do with my days...
Used to until I moved to Israel. Stupid geoblocking. Surfthechannel often has very poor quality and is technically illegal FYI. I tried it a few times, but don't bother anymore.

Hulu is great. I love that you can embed clips (either pre-made clips or you can make one yourself) from a show into blogs. Every episode of Friday Night Lights is there . If you've missed out on this great show, you can watch a few on Hulu. I guarantee it will hook you.
If you can't get Hulu, try http://www.sling.com.
Mostly the same, not quite all the Hulu content.
http://www.cbs.com has old shows like the original Star Trek.

My kids watch it quite a bit. They have several old episodes of Silver Spoons. Silver Spoons!
I've recently discovered the awesomeness of Cox's On-Demand service. I recently watched the entirety of Breaking Bad in HD, which was very cool. No commercials at all.

besides, I don't care what anyone says Alec Baldwin is hot and he can eat my mushy brains any day
I love hulu! I watch it more than I watch my actual TV. It's great because if I miss a show, it's up on hulu the next day. Their movie selection kinda stinks though.

You can, because I saw a segment on the news about a couple who hooked their TV up to the internet to watch Hulu. How, I don't know.
I LOVE Hulu! My sister and I were talking about this the other day. I got addicted to some show from the 90's I'd never heard of before, and I get caught up on my favorite shows when I miss them.
Oh, I love hulu! I found it about six months ago and I'm hooked. I don't watch TV or rent or borrow movies, so this is a great way to see shows like House or movies that I've wanted to see but never did. And it's free!!!!!!
Not sure about xbox, but I just use a regular monitor cable and hook my laptop up to the TV. Hulu is how I'm catching up with Lost. I
it.

Hulu on XBox:

You'll need something called PlayOn (in beta now) installed. If you're on a Mac, you're out of luck. Boxee used to have Hulu but they've since parted ways.
XBox will also stream from NetFlix InstantWatch, if you have a Netflix account. It's great.

I'll have to look at it again, but last time I looked they didn't have any shows I was interested in watching.
What kind of cable? My laptop only has USB ports.Not sure about xbox, but I just use a regular monitor cable and hook my laptop up to the TV. Hulu is how I'm catching up with Lost. I
Are you kidding me with this? LOL. I have no idea!
Um, I think it's called a VGA cable? Does that sound right? It's the regular blue ended monitor cable, my laptop has a port on the right side, next to the phone jacks.
