Hulu begins rolling out ABC shows
Hulu is starting with Grey's Anatomy, and has plans to roll out other shows including Desperate Housewives, Ugly Betty, Scrubs, and I Survived a Japanese Game Show over the next few weeks. Sure, it'd be nice if all this stuff were available on day one, but it's summertime and there aren't as many new episodes of existing shows to add to the site, so I can see why Hulu would want to drag things out a bit.
Now if only the company could snag some CBS and CW content...

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts.

It's about time. Hulu has been my only source of TV since February -- when my state made the full switch to digital TV (the signal wasn't strong enough to reach my rural area, like the analog signal used to do).

I prefer the desktop app since it allows me to surf from the couch, and easily use a harmony remote instead of a keyboard and mouse.

Couldn't the lack of new episodes during the summer be a greater reason to rush things since people could seek online sources for entertainment?

about freakin' time. The ABC player sucked butt and only worked properly with IE for me.

You want content from CW? Does anyone actually watch that network?
