Days on Hulu

[doyle1995]

Their site issues is what drove folks to Youtube. Surely they must know their video player is awful.

I sometimes also watch on Hulu, so I just tried it. I keyed Days of our Lives full episodes (on hulu) and it came up fine.

@JibLib1 , they do come up "fine" when you do a search on Hulu, but if you try to watch one, it takes you to the NBC website. Even just hovering over an episode to see the details shows you that you will be watching at NBC.com. Also, the Days "home page" on Hulu that used to exist no longer does. I do not have Hulu Plus, so maybe that makes a difference... I don't know. I just know I'd like to have Days back on Hulu!

Even with a search, the last full episode I see is 8-14, though I didn't try to see if it would play.

Correction: HuluPlus will cost me $7.99 per month after the 30 day free trial.

Update: The latest available upload is from Friday, August 14th.

I thought the episodes were supposed to be available the next day, so yesterday's should already be up! What's happening?

I'm sorry if my earlier comment caused people to sign up for nothing. This is a bummer.

I did click on it to see if it would play, after the ads it did play. I have the free hulu so not sure whats going on. Hope it gets worked out for you all.

It did show that it had 8-17 episode, but it was the third one in which was odd. Showed two older dates first then yesterday's.

Yes, I noted the same thing......also, when I click on the Monday 8/17 one, a note came up saying you would be taken to the NBC video and would be leaving the Hulu site.

Hulu Facebook replied to a few questions regarding DAYS by stating Hulu lost the streaming rights to DAYS.

I'll be dropping Hulu.

 

[Just Samantha]

That just blows my mind since NBC/Universal is a part owner of Hulu and Days is on NBC.

 

[sands of time]

They added salt to the wound by continually stating "but we have many soaps to choose from in our vast library."

 

[Just Samantha]

but we have many soaps to choose from in our vast library

Does "3" equate to "many"??? (since there are only 4 soaps on TV right now)

 

[sands of time]

They must be referring to 'Dark Shadows' and some foreign soaps such as 'Coronation Street' as well as 'General Hospital' which is the only new American daytime soap available on Hulu.

 

[Poirot]

Someone asked if they were going to get the series E.R. and they replied not yet, but instead, they could watch General Hospital. Cracked me up.

 

[guilty pleasure]

Wow. Because that's SO the same thing. LOL!

 

[Just Samantha]

They probably got confused because John Stamos was on both shows at one time (GH and ER).

 

[WhizGidget]

LOL Just Samantha!

They probably have some lackey tagging shows, and anything with hospital in the title is tagged as hospital and, therefore, the same.

 

[Just Samantha]

Reminds me of Amazon and eBay in their "related searches" section. You can be looking at manicure kits and the related searches will have something completely off the wall like "snow shoes".

 

[WhizGidget]

Yeah, sometimes the Netflix recommendations engine goes a little wacky, and it makes me wonder how it happens, except maybe people intentionally rating things that are extremely diverse because either they share the account, or they are trying to screw with the algorithm.

I wonder if they are going to put Days on Crackle in the US like they do in Australia? They have it on Crackle in Australia but it's a year and a month behind.

We do have Days on Foxtel which shows the current episodes direct from the US.

I wish they would put the current eps on a streaming service that anyone can watch without restrictions to peoples location.

They should put it on Netflix in all countries where everyone can watch.

Is it too much to hope that they are going to surprise us with a 50th anniversary gift and put the episodes up somewhere where everyone can watch? Somehow I doubt it. It would be nice though if they did.
