Well…besides NightsAndWeekends.com, of course…
Since celebrities seem to be doing a pretty good job of keeping themselves out of trouble this week, there hasn’t been much to talk about on the gossip front (of course, we would start our blog on a slow entertainment week…). So, instead, let’s talk about a wicked cool new Web site that just went live to the public today.
It’s called Hulu (http://www.hulu.com), and it’s an online source of all kinds of TV episodes and movies and things – all free and on-demand. There are new shows (like Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which currently offers four full episodes), and there are old shows (like 22 episodes of WKRP in Cincinnati). And you can watch them whenever you want. Really! I’m watching WKRP right now!
Oh, yeah…and did I mention the movies? Yep. Hulu has movies, too. Good movies like The Jerk, The Usual Suspects, and October Sky (and if good movies aren’t your thing, there are a few bad movies, too). There’s other stuff, too — clips, commercials, interviews, and more. And it’s all free! Sure, there are a few commercials in there, but that’s a pretty small price to pay, if you ask me.
Though Hulu’s collection isn’t quite all-encompassing (yet), there’s plenty here to keep you entertained for a while. In fact, I’m pretty sure I already have about two days’ worth of stuff in my queue, just waiting to be watched.
So if you miss some of your old favorite TV shows (like Arrested Development or even Alfred Hitchcock Presents), you can check them out at Hulu. And if you’ve been missing out on some new show that all of your friends have been talking about, you can head to Hulu and get caught up. Thanks to Hulu, you won’t be the watercooler outcast anymore.
