Hulu Black Friday Deal: Get Streaming Service for $1.99 for New Subscribers
Hulu is leading the charge for streaming services with its wallet-friendly Black Friday deal—offering new subscribers 12 months of Hulu for just $1.99 a month.
The Black Friday deals means new users pay just a third of Hulu's usual $5.99 a month subscription fee.
Hulu's Black Friday deal runs from Friday through 11:59 p.m. Pacific time on Cyber Monday (December 2). You can sign up at Hulu.com.

There are some caveats to the huge savings deal, of course: After 12 months of paying just $1.99, subscriptions will bump up to $5.99 per month. The deal is also only open to new subscribers or returning users who have not subscribed to Hulu in the last 12 months.
It should also be noted that the $1.99 plan is for a standard, ad-supported subscription.
Hulu's terms and conditions read: "Offer valid for new and eligible returning subscribers (who have not been Hulu subscribers in the past 12 months) only. Not combinable with any free trial of the Hulu (ad-supported) plan or any other promotional offers or pricing (including the Disney bundle); not redeemable via gift card. Any plan switch after redemption of this offer will result in forfeiture of the discount pricing."
Hulu Black Friday deal: How to get the best from Hulu
Hulu's ad-supported subscription tier, usually $5.99 per month, gives you access to all of Hulu's catalog of original shows and favorites from across broadcast and cable television.
Hulu also has two other tiers which aren't included in the Black Friday deal. If you want to watch Hulu without ads, plans cost $11.99 per month with your first month free. Or for Hulu plus live TV, subscriptions cost $44.99 per month with your first week free. The Hulu plus live TV plan will increase to $54.99 per month from December 18.
Hulu is, of course, home to hit original shows like The Handmaid's Tale, so if you haven't watched it yet, now might be the time to get in on the action.
The streaming service is also home to George Clooney's Catch-22, The Act, Marvel's Runaways, Looking for Alaska and Castle Rock.
Joining Hulu next year will be Season 3 of Seth MacFarlane's The Orville, Little Fires Everywhere starring and produced by Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington, and Normal People, an adaptation of Sally Rooney's best-selling novel.
Aside from its original content, Hulu is a convenient way to catch up on television shows from across numerous networks and cable channels. Some of the streamer's most popular shows include Grey's Anatomy, Watchmen, Family Guy, Shameless and This Is Us.
