    Who? What? Never heard of it.
    What is it and how will it pay me taxes?

    Hulu is a great site, they have plans to make it available to the rest of the world. Alot of the american shows have taken a break for the Christmas.

    It'll be another decade before this happens in Ireland. They have to negotiate the licencing in every country and I can't imagine Ireland is a priority target market, being one of the smallest english-speaking countries.. Plus eircom will probably ban it :rolleyes:

    edit: unless of course, you want to pay for a decent US proxy server and even then I think they have banned the ip ranges of a lot of proxy providers (anyone confirm?)

    Good riddance. I detest sites that discriminate against me simply because I'm not within US borders.

    Ireland actually tends to fare pretty well with getting american programming and getting it quickly. We have alot of programs here only a few days later than America while Austrailia are always a couple of years behind.

    It took Europe 12 Years to get Mario RPG, to be fair.

    Hold on a sec OP - you're posting about a US site that cannot be viewed here?

    WHY?

    Most US shows only screen ~1 episode in December - maybe the new episodes aren't out yet?

    You shouldnt discuss it here, and I dont know or care how: but there are ways.

    Considering TBS plays A Christmas Story on a Loop from Midnight to Midnight on Dec 25th, they really could do with some new material during the holidays.

    theyre always adding new stuff - youll miss a lot of it if you just look at the front page announcements. A new series of Scrubs just launched (The Medschool Spinoff, its not terrible) And SG-1s 9th season got put up last week. And hundreds of other shows. They just put up a collection of Mystery Science Theatre too. Have you seen MST? You must.

    People can watch Hulu using a proxy server.
