A Hulu subscription, available with or without ads, gives viewers access to a large collection of on-demand content. However, you may find that some of your favorite networks are missing from Hulu’s list, or that past seasons of your favorite series are unavailable. Subscribing to Hulu with Live might solve that problem.
The Hulu with Live plan not only gives viewers access to live TV, but also expands the on-demand library to include additional channels and more past seasons of some series. With the Hulu live plan, you’ll get on-demand content from channels that aren’t available in the basic Hulu on-demand. Some of those channels include the Cooking Channel, DIY Network, Lifetime Movies, and the Science Channel.
With some channels, Hulu’s basic packages offer limited episodes or limited past series. For example, Bravo shows have limited content on the basic packages. Upgrading to Hulu with Live will give you access to more past seasons with all episodes available in the on-demand library. This dramatically expands the amount of on-demand content Hulu offers.
Don’t forget that subscribing to Hulu with Live also allows you to use the streaming service as your TV provider when signing into your TV Everywhere apps. These channels offer live and on-demand content on Hulu with Live, and you can sign into the network apps with your Hulu credentials. Those networks include:
