Went back to Hulu to rewatch 'The Great' and noticed something creepy
I was scrolling through Hulu last night trying to find 'The Great' again since it got canceled after season 3, and I swear the show's page is gone. Like not even in my watch history anymore. I checked my sister's account too and she said she can't find it either. Is Hulu quietly deleting canceled shows to avoid paying residuals or something? Has anyone else had a whole series just vanish from their account after it got the axe?

Ha! Joke's on me I guess, I have like 30 shows in my "continue watching" that I haven't touched in two years and Hulu probably thinks I've ghosted them. Honestly my watch history is so chaotic it's prob a public service if they delete stuff I forgot about. But yeah The Great vanishing is super sketchy, I had the same thing happen with "Utopia" from like 2020, one day it was there the next it just wasn't.

Wait, "not even in my watch history anymore"? That is seriously messed up if true.

Whoa, I actually kind of see it differently, @king.derek. I had the same thing pop up for a couple older videos, and it made me check my settings. Turns out YouTube quietly changed their default privacy settings a few months back, so if you didn't manually opt in to the new tracking thing, some history just vanishes after a while. It's not great, but it's more of a settings glitch than them actively hiding stuff from you.
