Hulu intra episode navigation

While attempting to watch an episode of a TV show on Hulu.com, I attempted to pause the program. Instead of pausing by pressing the space bar, which usually works. Instead, the program jumped to an earlier part of the show, without pausing. I then tried to return the progress indicator to where I had been before. At this point, I was given an extra commercial to watch. I then tried to make a small adjustment, moving the indicator a minute forward, within the same intra-commercial region, and was forced to watch another commercial - the same commercial I had just watched. Hulu was punishing me with commercials and my negative feelings about Hulu have been transferred to the advertiser.

Hulu advertisements are totally inappropriate for viewers. I do not need to hear about erections, or the lack thereof, abortions and abortion pills, etc. etc. There are too many to even list. Remove them and fine Hulu. This has to stop. I will be cancelling Hulu as I cannot have this trash in my home around my family.

Why is the bleach anime only has Spanish subtitles when I want to watch it in Japanese version? I thought English would be an option but it’s not for the Japanese version (subtitles)

There are way too many ads under the paid subscription. It's ridiculous the ads are like 6 minutes long in total. You watch 2 minutes of your show then 6 minutes worth of ads with all this money I paid! The worst!

Tried watching the US Open (golf) and it kept cutting out so I missed most of 2-7:30 coverage. I had to go to Roku and watch USGA to only watch featured groups. Very disappointing.

Hulu recently changed the user format of their network . It is awful. Its is time consuming, confusing and frustrating. The fact that I have to get past "my profile" and then the welcome screen every time I log into Hulu, is a nuisance. The old one worked fine. I would like the ability to use the old format.
Thank you

Hulu advertising

Last night, Feb.14, 2010, I was watching Stargate SG-1 on Hulu and for hours on end, Nationwide provided a commercial for each break. The commercial was very repulsive, and down right disgusting. The commercial focused in on a group of people together and a man comes into the room, opens a zip top can of soup, indicating "Cambell's Alphabet Soup", takes it into his mouth, swishes it around, then spits it into the sink spelling out the words "NATIONWIDE IS ON YOUR SIDE". The appearance of it all looked like someone puked in the sink. It was so nauseating, that I couldn't watch it, I had to close my eyes every time it came on. I am not a squeamish person, but that really made me sick to my stomach. I don't know who else to contact about this complaint, but when I pulled them up, this complaint sight came up.

Happens daily! With every different show we watch. Freezes up after approximately 20 minutes of watching a show. Have to go out and reload (resume) program... sometimes you cannot 'resume'... you have to start over from the beginning. This is not a case of buffering!

This has been ongoing for over a year, calling in every month, and when I had live it was even worse. I have to call in monthly, with some billing issue. Never can speak to some in English and my problem is never resolved. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE! I really hate dealing with this company, not worth all this stress.

I'm so tired of seeing gay and transgender ads repeatedly. You should show commercials that appeal to the majority of people... and seeing a guy wearing women's clothes, is not it.

I’ve got several TV’s in my house lately Hulu has been making me log in on every T.V. The next time I get a log in message from Hulu I’m canceling. I tried to get someone on the phone and got someone in some other country, if you can’t hire someone in America, that alone makes not want to do business these jerks

I would like to complain about the commercials Hulu has been advertising. I do not want my children watching commercials advertising and pushing homosexuality as normalcy. That should be a choice I’m able to make.
