Who's Heard of Hulu.com?

As the government and cable companies do their best to suck every last penny out of hardworking americans who can't afford Digital or Satelite TV, there are still some super hero's out there thinking about us.
I personally have chosen to cut off TV in the house to avoid my young childrens eyes from being toyed with by the boob tube, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy watching a little brain mushing television from time to time.
Maybe catch a movie on friday or saturday nights when I want to cuddle with my hubby and not worry about anything else.
Even if I had wanted to keep the digital cable we had, it would have been a fight between that and the cable internet. Most of my living is earned from the usefulness of the internet and its resources. Which meant that the cable had to go anyways.
I can't say that I was all that interested in finding free TV on the net, but I was almost exhilerated to see the commercial on a few of the last days of rabbit ear television that I have left.
The plot of aliens to take over the world by turning our brains into goo was a good one, very creative and it was enough to catch my attention, and encourage me to type in the web address www.hulu.com I was more than astonished to actually be able to watch 'House' uninterupted for once. I love that show, but I always end up missing it in its prime time spot.
Hulu.com was kind enough to show the newest episode as well as a few others, with only a few 30 second commercials. What made it even better was that is was totally free and they didn't force me to sign anything painful.
If you haven't had a chance to check it out, I suggest you do. Especially if your part of the lower class that can't afford this DTV crap.
