​Hulu secrets that will make your life easier

Hulu has a catalog that now goes far beyond television and even in the Criterion Collection. But how do you make the most of your $ 7.99? We have a few helpful tips.

1. Find exactly what you are looking for.

Hulu has an advanced search function, if you want something oddly specific. First, type a general inquiry into the search bar on the home page. For example, "The Good Wife." Once you reach the search page, click on "Advanced Video Search" in the upper right corner.

2. Wait, who is that actor?

Do not even bother to open a new window to IMDB. Hulu has a feature called Face Match, which is similar to photo tagging of Facebook's recognition. On some shows (New Girl and Modern Family, for example), you can switch on the face of a star and get quick bio.

The box will provide the name of the actor, date of birth, character name and a link to Wikipedia. Turn it on in the Settings tab in the lower right corner of your video clip.

3. catch it before it's gone.

Go to the "Account" tab, click "Queue" and select "Expiry Alerts" on the top right of the page. You will receive an e-mail anytime something you added nears its end days.

4. Take a break.

Hulu allows you to put your subscription on hold for a maximum of 12 weeks without having to pay or cancel your account. During this period, you will not be able to watch episodes or movies via the website or application, but you can resume operation by logging back and change the setting at any time

5. Get tips on what to watch.

The Magic Cube service Hulu literally rolls the dice for the viewers, so you can stop spending just 30 minutes trying to choose what to watch. Select one of nine categories as "Satire" or "Dark Comedy." From here you can add another section to add variety or open the cube immediately.
