A while ago in The Business they did a brief report on new video websites, and one of the sites mentioned was Hulu, a site with complete TV shows series. They have tons of them, from new ones, such as "My Name Is Earl" and "30 Rock," to old classics, such as "A-Team," and "Airwolf."
They also have some weird stuff, such as something called "Tostitos Fiesta Bowl" (my ignorance might give away my profound foreignness here) and "Victoria Beckham: Coming to America." Pure randomness right there.
But they not only have TV shows, they also have a really cool selection of movies. You are not going to find any "Citizen Kane" there though. I noted that they seem to specialize in the old horror B-Movie genre, and you can find really cool titles such as "Attack of the Puppet People," "PumpkinHead," and "The Comedy of Terrors;" but they also have some newer stuff, such as the always beloved (mostly by people who are not like you and me) "Ms. Sunshine," "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry," and such.
The site has tons of ads. Not pop-ups, though, but lots of commercials in the shows themselves, which you can't skip. The Business, on a new news update on the website, said that all the commercial spots on the website were filled, and they might be opening even more, which means more interruptions during the viewing. And that may get annoying, but hey, it's free, and I'm all about free junk! All I need now is more time to watch this stuff...
