So tonight to relax we decided to watch a silly sitcom

We picked abbot elementary on hulu

Well

That was about 5 tries ago to sign in, checking that we paid, searching the net for why hulu changed….

Grrrrrrr

Half hour later, now we have to sign in through disney? Even though we don’t have disney we now need that account…ok

Crap so now the screen is all different and I still can’t find abbot

I ask for so little lol

Ok so it turns out we can’t get there from here

So paramount it is

I got my first year of Hulu for $20. We decided we might get Disney for a year and watch all the stuff you can only get there, Same with HBO/Max; get it then watch all the stuff we haven't seen then go to something else. We switch back and forth between Acorn and Britbox.
