Hulu to go commercial-free tonight

Hulu to go commercial-free tonight

Hulu’s a great way to catch up with shows you’ve missed.  Their advertising breaks are even somewhat bearable.  Tonight will be different though.

Tonight, McDonald’s McCafé promotion starts on Hulu.  Together they are bringing commercial-free Hulu programming from 7PM EST to 3AM EST.  That’s a pretty cool deal.  I’d assume that we would see and hear “This program is brought to you interruption-free thanks to McDonald’s McCafé” but that’s not bad at all.

There is an oddball picture chosen to announce this move on the Hulu site with Meg Griffin of “Family Guy” and Alec Baldwin of “30 Rock” in stylish poses.  I realize that both NBC and Fox are partners in Hulu, but why chose Meg Griffin to represent Fox?  Even Seth McFarlane doesn’t know what to do with her on the show. 

Tonight would be a great time to put together a queue of shows or watch some of the movies on Hulu without the usual breaks.
