A lot of black shows have cancelled and they may show reruns every now and again will you’ll please add some good full episodes of some black shows.

With a little digging, it looks like that Hulu is providing a few sites their catalog. http://www.bigmouthmedia.com/live/articles/hulu-partners-with-msn-aol-and-yahoo.asp/4198/

Especially if (and I assume they will) there’s content in HD.

Also some sites have labeled it as a competitor to Hulu, though it appears much of their current content is actually coming from Hulu.
