I should clarify that Hulu's "ad-free" tier isn't entirely ad-free. Certain programs may actually have an ad play before them, though usually I've only noticed this when, for example, Hulu has a deal with an existing channel to stream a show as soon as it airs on cable TV.
Annoys the hell out of me that they continue to call it "Hulu (No Ads)". It really shows the level of respect they have for their customers.

- CrazedGeek 4y agoThey've been trying to pare down that list ever since that tier was introduced. At this point, the only show on it is Grey's Anatomy.
- jjulius 4y agoHuh, TIL. There are two or three shows that I just stopped bothering with altogether on Hulu and have been torrenting for years because of those ads, while we used Hulu for shows that didn't have any ads at all. I wish their communication around this had been stronger, I wonder how long ago I would've stopped pirating them. Thanks for pointing that out! (And I should dig into those details the next time I share links like that)
