What to do when Hulu is down
- Downloaded shows in the Hulu app (available with the No Ads plan) will continue to play offline during an outage.
- If Hulu Live TV is down during a live event, try the network's own app (ABC, ESPN, Fox) as they may stream independently.
- Clear the Hulu app cache and restart the app after the outage is resolved — stale cache can cause playback errors even after service returns.
- Report the outage on this page to help other users confirm the problem.
Common Hulu outage causes
Hulu outages often involve streaming CDN failures or DRM licensing issues that prevent playback on specific devices. Live TV components can fail independently of the on-demand library.
