Now that Anora Defeated the front leader of the early season Emilia Pérez For the best picture, a new Oscars evil weight has been taken and his name is Hulu. This year, the Oscar awards flocked live on Hulu for all subscribers, not only for those with the Hulu + Live TV plan. So many, many, many The spectators were disappointed when the Oscars were abruptly equipped at around 10:32 p.m. ET without further observing the events that develop in the ABC program. It couldn't have happened at a worse time AnoraPresent Slope the Front-Runner Demi Moore category. Just when she got off her chair and turned through the corridor, the feed was gray with a message that the video feed was no longer available. Back on the Hulu homepage, the Oscars had disappeared as an option to click. This was continued until the end of the program, so Anoraas well as the final remarks by Conan O'Brien as well as the detour and the host of Conan O'Brien did not apply to many. Write now, from 23.11.11. ET (okay, essential …) The 97th annual Oscar Aaward's stream is not yet available for playback.

This mistake followed one who appeared at the beginning of the show when many spectators were released according to the livestream of the red carpet or could not register for Hulu to look at the award ceremony. To Deadline, Hulu solved the “technical problem with a login system” and informed the spectators that they could register again after the restart of their devices. The ABC show was continued normally on ABC.com (both Hulu and ABC are under the roof of Disney).

On Twitter, thousands of spectators expressed their problems with the streaming service. Many humorous connections between Sean Baker's acceptance speech for the best director (also for Anora), in which he campaigned for distributors to prioritize theater runs to go directly to streaming and seem to “pull the plug”.

Geier turned to Hulu to get a comment on the failure. “Tonight we experienced technical and live stream problems in Hulu that influenced some Oscars viewers,” said the streamer in a statement. “We apologize for the experience and will make a complete repetition of the event available as soon as possible.”
