Hulu is a streaming platform founded in 2007. This service is available in the U.S. and on U.S. military bases. If you hear of someone using Hulu outside those areas, that person is probably using a VPN. Since Hulu isn’t available everywhere, a VPN is really the only way to access the streaming platform.

Hulu, like other streaming platforms, allows users to watch popular TV shows in streaming mode. It owes its popularity to, The Walt Disney Company, which became the owner of a significant stake in Hulu in 2009.

This streaming service specializes in streaming new TV shows from many popular studios. Hulu has a wealth of original content. Many of the shows streamed on this platform have been awarded Golden Globes or Emmys. If you start using Hulu, you’ll get access to new shows much sooner than on other platforms.
