There is none of this nonsense on Hulu (from my phone to Chromecast). I recently dropped Netflix for Hulu simply because of the more interesting portfolio.

- bitrrrate 8y agoSame here. I literally found myself scrolling Netflix for many, many minutes on end. It essentially became Facebook. I don’t know if the issue is their catalog has expanded with so many originals that it’s hard to find something to watch and or that not having ratings (to tell if something sucks) me to not watch. Sure they have some stellar content but they also have a lot of crap.
- rmellow 8y agoIMHO most of Netflix's catalogue is crap... Or their recommender system just doesn't get me. It seems to have overfit on anime, even though I just watched a couple a long time ago.
- robohoe 8y agoThe fact that Netflix no longer has a rating system is quite sad. That was one of the high points of Netflix back in the day - the ability to read reviews of shows/movies before committing to them. Now everything has to be “recommended” to me.
- zamalek 8y agoThe Hulu Originals, as sparse as they are, are outstanding across the board. It's like the early days of Netflix Originals.
- bitrrrate 8y agoPlus if I want to watch current TV or more recent shows alongside originals it’s available on Hulu. Netflix has lost a lot of the more bingeable shows and it really doesn’t have any current content. I get that Netflix is a different beast than Hulu in many ways. But for cord cutters Hulu feels more like the total package.
- lscotte 8y agoBut then you have to watch commercials in the middle of the content - that's worse to me, paying money for the service and still getting commercials.
