Thanksgiving: a time for family, food, and lounging on the couch in a food coma for hours after dinner watching TV. This year, ahead of the holiday season, you can take advantage of an early Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal on Hulu, a favorite streaming service for TV lovers. From now until next Tuesday, new and eligible subscribers (those who have an email that hasn’t been used for a Hulu account in at least a month) can get an ad-supported Hulu subscription for just $0.99 per month for 12 months. That’s $12 for the entire year to stream shows like The Golden Bachelor and The Bear — two must-watch shows to share with your family this Thanksgiving! Plus, Hulu is also offering a huge discount on its Starz on Hulu add-on. For your first six months, you can get Starz on Hulu — typically an $18 per month duo— for just an extra $0.99 per month. That means for just $2, you’ll get tons of movies you can only stream on Starz right now, and access to almost every great Thanksgiving TV episode, right on time for that post-turkey crash.
Typically, a basic ad-supported Hulu subscription runs $8 a month, but when you sign up during Hulu’s Cyber Week sale, you can get Hulu for just $1 per month. While the service now offers great bundles like the Disney+ trio or the Hulu live TV tier, classic Hulu is a great subscription for any TV fan to have. For just $12 for the year, you’ll get access to great Hulu Originals like Normal People, The Handmaid’s Tale, Only Murders in the Building, and The Great, plus all FX shows like Justified: City Primeval, The Bear, and the new series, A Murder at the End of the World. On top of original Hulu shows and movies, Hulu allows you to stream plenty of TV shows the day after they air, like every show in The Bachelor franchise and popular Fox series such as Bob’s Burgers and Kitchen Nightmares. You can also score six months of the Starz on Hulu add-on for just $1 more per month, and get Starz exclusives like Gaslit, Men in Kilts, Shining Vale, and Outlander.
So why is this a good Black Friday deal? Anyone who streams anything knows that streaming platforms rarely have sales. But not only is the Hulu Cyber Week sale a once-in-a-year event, it also offers you savings of up to $84 for the whole year (or $7 monthly) which feels especially significant in this day and age of streaming costs. In addition, by adding six months of Hulu’s Starz add-on for an extra $0.99 per month, you can get classic Christmas movies, new shows, and more, for just $2. Starz on Hulu typically costs $17.98 per month, but for six months you can score both Hulu and Starz for just $2.
You’ll definitely want Hulu if you’re interested in keeping up with new and trendy shows like The Kardashians. Not only do you get access to Hulu Originals, you also get FX shows including The Bear, What We Do in the Shadows, and A Murder at the End of the World. And if you add Starz into the mix, you’ll get even more shows like Minx, Gaslit, P-Valley, and Outlander. Hulu was also the top streaming pick for TV junkies in our 2023 ranking of the best streaming services for TV, movies, sports, and more.
Brand new subscribers and those who haven’t had an active Hulu account associated with their email for at least one month are eligible for Hulu’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal. The sale runs from today, Nov. 21 through next Tuesday, Nov. 28 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
