Pretty cool. I like the thinly-veiled SEO work in the "See also" section. Smart :) On a show's page, I'm confused by the "Featured series" button that leads to the homepage as seen here: http://whenepisode.com/coming/t/breaking+bad http://whenepisode.com/coming/t/breaking+bad Since it's a button I thought it would add the show to the featured shows (for my session), but it's just a link. That's actually a "problem" I've been having with series I watch on Hulu, which made me check my queue every now and then just to see that, no, there wasn't a new episode of The Office this week… My way to solve problems is mostly through Chrome extensions these days, so, here is the shameless plug for the extension I built: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/qulu-–-your-hulu-queue/iggfkakbafpkgjaocfjaoehcclhcjckb https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/qulu-–-your-hulu-q... A badge shows you when you have new shows to watch from your Chrome toolbar.

I installed your chrome qulu plugin...nice work! It partially solves the problem I describe on the main thread. However, the badge showed me all the episodes in my queue, even the ones that I had already watched. Also, I have started using the "favorites" section instead of the queues interface in Hulu. It would be great if the plugin could tell me new episodes of my favorite shows..

  the badge showed me all the episodes in my queue, even the ones that I had already watched. It will actually show the new ones as "+4" for example until you click it, then it shows the total number of shows in your queue. However, Hulu should automatically be removing the shows you've watched, not sure why it doesn't. I'll have to look at the favorites section… I'm not really sure how it works actually. It seems that new episodes added to your favorites will be added to your queue by default, no? Maybe it's not by default and just the way I have mine set up. I could look into it, but at first sight, it seems that it would be a fairly significant change, since I would need to track down the existing episodes for each favorite show and then periodically check again on each show page. Whereas I only check on the queue page for now.
