Tens of thousands of Hulu users report the popular streaming service is down tonight.

Hulu confirmed on X late Tuesday night that it was “aware of this behavior and we’re working to get you back to your favorite content.”

Why is Hulu not working?

Users have reported on DownDetector.com that they’re having trouble logging in to the service.

More than 45,000 DownDetector users reported trouble with Hulu just after 10 p.m. The issues appear to have started around 8 p.m.

Users in parts of New Jersey experienced a lengthy delay on the loading page before it times out.

The issue does not appear to be impacting Disney+ users who access Hulu through that app. Content was loading through the Hulu portal on Disney+ as late as 11:15 p.m.

Other users on DownDetector have started to report the service recovering around 10:30 p.m.
