Hulu Is Discontinuing Its Free TV Service
Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Ugh. Though they've certainly succeeded in making free content as inaccessible as possible, so I mostly haven't been using them.

I honestly assumed they stopped offering it some time ago—I wasn't able to find a way to the content the last time I tried.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I did, too. But I got a paid subscription longer ago than that - there was some specific thing that made it worthwhile.

I pay extra to get rid of the commercials. SO WORTH IT.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Me too, Tom. I'll gladly pay to not have commercials.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I think this is the showrunners' way of leaving the door open a sliver for possible season 2. I have mixed feelings. While I loved these characters, I think this particular story has been told and it would be a mistake to bring the entire cast back for S2. If they wanted to do a second season, it'd be smarter to do an anthology-type structure with maybe a thematic connection. Or bring one or two characters back but not the entire set-up.
Agreed. I like leaving that story with a couple of unanswered questions. A whole new story in a similar style would be of interest to me but I'd rather it be all new characters.
