Re: Silly Viacom said by openbox9:But if you have the choice of Comedy Central's website to watch these shows or Hulu to not have access to these shows, which will you choose? What about TVs that have HULU widgets and not comedy central widgets?

Plus many other set top boxes.
I take that back, Hulu specifically doesn't want their service to be used on set top boxes. |

Thanks for not answering my question. Can you provide specific makes/models because Google isn't being kind to me. |

kudos:2 | There are a lot of STB, or equivalent, capabilities have have everything you mentioned, and a whole lot more. I have a Mac Mini running Plex hooked up to my TV and the available content is abundant. I'm still curious what actual TV/monitor has a Hulu capability built in that Gbcue  continues to reference. |

There are a bunch of LCD TVs for sale that have what they call "Internet Apps" access. And their ads imply you can go anywhere on the internet. Whether Hulu lets them access their web site is the question, since Hulu seems to check the browser ID info and device type before allowing access. |

And that's the crux of my question. Hulu "widgets" all seem tied to "traditional" computers (at least that's my perception from the Hulu website). So, can anyone point me to a TV/monitor that has a valid and authorized capability to directly display Hulu content? |

Hulu no.

There are many TV's with Hulu access for example most new Sony's with BRAVIA Internet Video Link have it built-in and you can buy and add just the module for other models.
Do your homework before posting "ignorance" for the world to see. |

Do your homework before posting "ignorance" for the world to see. I have a Bravia Internet Video Link on my Sony TV. There are a lot of "channels" on the device (Amazon, Slacker, Netflix, Yahoo, Blip.TV, YouTube, etc), but Hulu is definitely not one of them.
Maybe you should do your homework before posting "ignorance" for the world to see.
