Google home hub and mini say that Hulu shows are not available

[Mnance]

I will ask my Google devices to play a show from Hulu and it says, the show is unavailable or cannot be played right now. I can cast Hulu onto my Google devices though. This is a new issue. They have never had a problem playing from Hulu before. I have tried unlinking and relinking hulu from Google home. Any other things I should try?

It does this so often with google and hulu that you might want to consider returning your google "smart" devices and going with an alexa platform. Thats exactly what im doing since they fail to meet any expectations across the board even with great wifi speed the system will still struggle to even turn a light on with response times close to 15 seconds to follow simple orders.

This is not the experience I have had with my GH devices.  Can I ask what light bulbs are giving you issues?

This has recently just started happening with our devices.  We have been using them for years this way but no matter what Google says "Sorry I don't understand" when we ask it to play a show.

I’ve been having the same Hulu issues with hubs for the past several days. They tell me Hulu shows are not available.

I’ve also rebooted, unlinked, relinked. Netflix works fine, so I’m not sure where the problem lies.

I can still cast to the hubs from Hulu, but when I try to have it play a show from Hulu (like it has done daily for so long), it tells me that’s not available and tries to search the web. 😕

Has anyone found a fix? Or have any ideas for us to try?

We have been having the same problems with our linked YouTubeTV trying to play Paw Patrol on our Nest Home Hub. It keeps saying "I can't find that right now. Try searching the internet." This has been happening for a week or two now. Any solutions? Not sure if it's the home hub, YouTubeTv, or Nick Jr. TIA!

UPDATE: I just retried on my hubs, and they worked to play shows from Hulu again. I didn’t do anything extra. They just worked today when I tried (I’ve been trying occasionally since they stopped working). We’ll see if it continues working, but I’m excited. I guess someone had a bug somewhere. Thank you to whoever fixed the issue and pushed the fix. 👍

Yes, mine is working again too!
