Yeah, bring the features... I think in the 4 years of being with Hulu they only had 1 redesign but still no new features and definitely never fixed any of the bugs that have been here forever. I really wanted to see some improvements to more 4k content and feature some of the live tv broadcasts in 4k but nope.

I finally canceled the over priced live tv and today's the last day before it's gone. $85 bucks a month is just not worth it. Found another service that offers a lot of channels for $8 a month and my wife only wants 1 local station so $7 for that. Knocking $85 down to $15 is a big win. I don't think I will be the only one if they really think they can raise prices like that. Glad I'm done with them.

What is this mysterious “other service”

Friend’s wife wants to know. We’re bored in bed

I stumbled on it by accident so I am not sure if it will be great, but it offered enough stuff that she wanted (I could care less about live tv!) That were going to give it a try. It's called frndly tv and looks like it's $10 a month or $8 if you pay for the year. It has a week trial so I guess we'll see if it's decent. The other one we saw was Philo but I think that was $25 and offered more channels but nothing more that we wanted that the first option didn't have. Neither offer local channels which is why we're also getting Peacock as well.
