9 Best Shows To Binge Watch on Hulu

I’m back with more shows to binge watch this summer. Here are the 9 best shows to binge watch on Hulu! I hope you like my picks and find a great new show to watch!

My 600-lb Life


If you’ve read my other articles about binge-worthy shows, you’ve probably noticed my preference towards reality TV. Of all the reality TV shows I’ve talked about, I must say, My 600-lb Life is perhaps the one most worth watching. It’s informative, educational, and a cautionary tale showing what happens when a person gives up on their health and well-being. It showcases the many struggles that come with being severely obese, not just physical, but emotional as well. My 600-lb Life doesn’t refrain from showing the more disturbing aspects of being obese, such as perpetually open wounds and sores, and suicidal thoughts that the people in the show must deal with. From depression, to struggles getting out of bed or even going to the bathroom on their own, My 600-lb Life is sad and difficult to watch, yet it is necessary to watch, as no one wants to end up in the dire situations that the show’s subjects end up in. Thankfully, almost every story told in the show, is a success. Watch as people transform their lives and turn their situations around. The transformations are amazing to watch, as some people lose over four hundred pounds in the course of a year. Seasons 2 and 3 are available to watch on Hulu right now.

Burning Love


A parody of the popular show, The Bachelor, Burning Love is about a group of women competing for the love of one man. Unlike The Bachelor, however, this show is completely fictional, and meant to be as hilarious as possible. There’s an elderly woman, pregnant woman, and a homeless woman, among other, more ordinary (and less ordinary) contestants all competing on this show together for the love of a firefighter named Mark Orlando, a man who is clueless, naive, and very very ignorant, to put it nicely. Instead of earning roses, like in the Bachelor, the contestants on Burning Love win “hoses.” Yes, you read that correctly, they earn hoses as a token of Mark’s affection. All of the ensuing antics on this show are absurd and outrageous, yet also just plain funny. Some people watching this show might find it a bit too absurd for their tastes, but I’ve got to say it never failed to make me laugh at least once in each episode, and I like to think I have a pretty sophisticated sense of humor. Seasons 1 and 2 of Burning Love are available on Hulu. (Season 1 is far better than season 2, which a story for a different article.)

Saturday Night Live


Live from New York, it’s Saturday night! A staple of American television for over four decades now, Saturday Night Live is still managing to captivate audiences all over the country. As far as sketch comedies go, SNL is superior to any other. Many sketch comedy shows have appeared over the years, but none have managed to garner as much attention or critical acclaim as this one. Many celebrity careers began here, from Chevy Chase to Adam Sandler, to Will Ferrell, and Kristen Wiig, there are all kinds of household names who earned their fame during their duration on this show. All kinds of iconic sketches, such as “Van down by the River,” and “More cowbell,” are still making audiences laugh today. 18 seasons of SNL are available on Hulu today.

The Last Man on Earth


Taking place a world where almost everyone was wiped out by a virus, The Last Man on Earth tells the story of a small group of survivors doing their best to rebuild the world. When I saw the first episode of The Last Man on Earth, I wondered how it could possibly last. With only one character in the entire episode, it didn’t seem like it could last an entire season. Alas, the title of this show is deceiving. The Last Man on Earth is not actually the last man on Earth. Several more characters enter the show as the episodes and seasons go on, and every character is fantastic. The main character, Phil Miller, played by Will Forte, is a riot to watch. He’s often rude, annoying, and frankly idiotic, but he’s still so much fun to watch. There’s a layer of charm in the humor of this show that I haven’t found in any other show yet. It’s comedy gold. Seasons 1 through 3 are available on Hulu right now.

South Park


A long-running comedy series, South Park has pushed the limits and buttons of people everywhere. Rated MA for mature, South Park is not a cartoon for children. It’s definitely for adults, as it is full of sexual and politically incorrect humor. It tells the story of a few young boys at South Park Elementary School who get into trouble, crazy situations, and mischief whenever they possibly can. South Park has sparked controversy ever since it first began, but that hasn’t stopped it from airing some of the raciest television in history. Just don’t take anything personally, as every group in this show is mocked at some point. Take it for the comedy that it is, and you’ll be sure to enjoy it. Most seasons of South Park are available on Hulu.

Once Upon a Time


I remember when this show first began and I was blown away by all the appearances of classic beloved characters. I fell in love with this show almost immediately. It tells the story of a woman named Emma Swan who visits the town of Storybrooke, Maine. When she arrives, she realizes that it’s not just an ordinary town, but it’s a town full of fairytale characters who are real people. Many secrets are revealed and there are twists and turns in every episode. Action-packed, romance-packed, and drama-packed, Once Upon a Time has everything a fairytale lover could possibly want. Almost any character you can think of eventually makes an appearance, from Cinderella and Mulan, to Belle, Captain Hook, and Peter Pan. Also be prepared to watch the best villain on television, Rumplestiltskin. He is the highlight of the show and will keep you watching for as long as possible. Seasons 1 through 6 are available on Hulu now.

My Strange Addiction


My goodness, TLC never fails to give me amazing reality TV. My Strange Addiction is an addicting show. I watched an entire season in two days, and when I ran out of seasons to watch on Hulu, I was sad. There are only three seasons available on Hulu, and if you’re like me, you’ll go through all of them very quickly, as episodes are only 20 minutes long. My Strange Addiction showcases the strange addictions of various people all over the country, from a woman in love with a carnival ride, to a man who cannot stop pretending his pool inflatables are real people, there are all kinds of addictions shown. Some of the more gross ones, such as coffee enemas and sniffing pee-soaked diapers, are often hard to stomach, but nevertheless fascinating to watch. Rarely do people on this show actually overcome their addictions, even though they often visit doctors on the show who tell them to quit whatever they’re doing, so that aspect can be a bit disappointing, but overall, My Strange Addiction is mindless entertainment, a great show to watch while multi-tasking or if you’re bored.

Adventure Time


The kids show that adults everywhere fell in love with, Adventure Time is hilarious, fun, and packs ample amount of entertainment for audiences of all ages. Enter the world of Ooo, a magical land in a post-apocalyptic setting, inspired by role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons, and join Finn the Human and his best friend, Jake the Dog, on their many adventures. I love everything about this show, from its clever writing, to memorable and complex characters, to its beautiful art style. It’s so colorful, and that alone makes it stand out from many cartoons. It’s not a simple kids show, and in fact, it treats its targeted audience with a lot of respect, showing that children are capable of understanding and enjoying complex shows. So much creativity oozes into this show and its creators are incredibly talented. Seasons 1 through 7 are available on Hulu right now.

Seinfeld


Ask people what their favorite sitcom of all time is, and they’ll likely say one of two things: Seinfeld or Friends. Whether you’re a fan of one and not the other, or you love both, there’s no denying how popular these shows are and what a huge impact they made on culture. I personally prefer Seinfeld, because its characters feel easier to relate to. Who hasn’t felt like Jerry, George, Elaine, or even Kramer at some point? Seinfeld is a show about every day life and the struggles we all deal with. It’s a show that’s essentially about nothing, yet everything at the same time. Its lovable bunch of goofball characters made TV hilarious throughout the 90s, bringing us iconic lines like, “No soup for you,” and “Hello Newman,” as well as iconic moments such as the “double-dipping” scene. It’s shows like this that make me wish I lived in an apartment in a big city with neighbors who were all my friends. Wouldn’t it be so great to just pop over to your neighbor’s apartment and hang out whenever you felt like it? All seasons of Seinfeld are available on Hulu right now.

This device is worn over your nose and releases nasty smells during the game. We don’t know much more about it right now, but really, isn’t the fact that it smells like farts, all you need to know? Yeah, I think that pretty much says it all.

South Park: The Fractured but Whole is set to be released on December 6, 2016. We should learn more before then. Or maybe it’s April Fools Day somewhere and we won’t.

Hulu Saves Kenny: South Park Gets a New Streaming Home

I used to watch some of the back catalog from South Park on Netflix and before I watched too many episodes of the show, it disappeared. I was rather annoyed at that fact. As it turns out the series is getting a new streaming home.

South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker have announced that a new streaming deal has been signed with Hulu that will see the entire back catalog of South Park available from the streaming service. Hulu will also get the rights to stream new episodes immediately after they air on Comedy Central.

The cool part about Hulu getting the series for the next three years is that you can watch the shows without paying for a subscription. The deal is said to be worth over $80 million.

South Park Parody

South Park is one animated show that’s definitely not safe for children–no duh, considering it’s labeled as an “adult animated sitcom.” Featuring often crude storylines that parody real-life people and events, the show’s got it all: sort-of lessons, celebrity cameos, the occasional song, and a whole lot of humor.

As with most animated shows, a lot of vocalists come in to record their parts on the show. But if one day, the producers wake up to find that most of their cast is missing (well, it could happen)–then they know who to call: Brock Baker.

Brock’s well-known for his ridiculous but often entertaining Brock’s Dubs channel on YouTube. This time around, he’s showing off his amazing prowess of imitating voices with the release of an impression reel where he does 31 characters from South Park in under 120 seconds.

With videos like these, the actual video itself might be distracting because you might want to focus on just the audio part. That, and, you know, you can test just how big of a South Park fan you are if you can identify the characters Brock is going for without the visual cues and clues. For these instances, you could just convert YouTube videos to MP3 so you can concentrate on using your ears without any distractions for your eyes. It’s not limited to this, since there a lot of videos on the site that are more for hearing than for watching, and it can be a pain to wait for the video to load when the audio is all that you’re after.

Time for the big question: Are you up to the great South Park challenge? Can you identify them all?
