Hulu

Hulu is a free website that provides television shows and movies on demand. Some of their content is limited, however the quality is quite good and it is a legitimate source of entertainment. I recommend Boo! a British tv show for toddlers and preschoolers. It has vibrant animation, uses adjectives when describing nouns, has great music, and is interactive. Children narrate the show giving it a natural feel. Show the next time you MUST get something done without children clinging to you, throw on Boo! (if your computer can handle it) and feel less guilty knowing that the show is educational (and much better than Dora in my book). Other shows that Sammy and I enjoy include Psych, Warehouse 13, and Wipeout. The site is easy to navigate with few commercials (about 2 an episode). Check it out HERE. It is rumored that next year, they will start charging for content.
