I finally was able to convince the wife to drop hulu live tv and just get a full year of hulu and also Netflix with the ads as an alternative. Can anyone comment on how bad the ads are?

The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
