While, Hulu is not as flashy as some of the other streaming services like Netflix, Max, and Disney+, it has a solid library of shows that are both originals and licensed through various studios. Regarding sci-fi shows, Hulu doesn’t have any big names like 3 Body Problem or Westworld, but it makes up for that by carrying some great new and old shows like Devs and The X-Files, which were loved by millions of people. So, we thought of making a list of the best sci-fi TV shows you can find on Hulu right now.

Exclusive: Actress Cara Santana (Daughter of the Bride) will make her directorial debut with The Shuffle, a documentary on the corruption of the addiction treatment industry, which she’s producing alongside Andrew Renzi’s North of Now.
Developed over the last two years, The Shuffle follows what she says is a $43B-a-year con that’s proliferated in the U.S. through the brokering and trafficking of vulnerable people in recovery by profiting off of their insurance. The film is said to go to the heart of why America has the largest drug epidemic in the Western world — the profit is in the treatment, not the cure.
“Sober for 20 years, I started noticing the disturbing trend of patient brokering in the rehabilitation industry which was ripe for insurance fraud, but what I uncovered was a massive $43B a year con,” Santana told Deadline. “After developing the story for over 2 years, I...

Taylor Swift has conquered the world of music, and it's long been rumored that the next step in her career is the movies.
She has her own eponymous production company, for one. In 2020, she starred in the documentary "Miss Americana," and in 2021, she directed a short film adapting her song "All Too Well," starring Sadie Sink and Dylan O'Brien. Aside from a handful of supporting roles in several films, she also took the 2023 box office by storm with the "Eras Tour" concert film.
Swift has a passionate fanbase, one that is famous for finding (or creating) supposedly hidden messages across her lyrics. Now, her newly released 11th album, "The Tortured Poets Department," has whipped up a new Swiftie theory.
The last track of "The Tortured Poets Department" — "Clara Bow" — concludes with the line: "The future's bright and dazzling." Fans jumped to the obvious conclusion; of course, Swift is hinting to...

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is the hottest upcoming MCU release for a few good reasons. The movie is rumored to include many cameos and variants, marking Deadpool’s first appearance in the MCU and Hugh Jackman’s return from Wolverine retirement. There are also rumors that it will lead into ‘Secret Wars,’ but we’re taking this with a grain of salt.
One of the persistent rumors among these cameos and variants is Taylor Swift appearing in the movie as Dazzler. This rumor traces back at least a year to notable scoopers and leakers. It’s especially convincing when you take into account that Reynolds is a huge fan of Swift, and his better half, Blake Lively, is good friends with the artist.
Now, some fans believe that Swift may have hinted at (or confirmed) her cameo in the movie as Dazzler through her latest lyrics.

Charlie Puth may be known for his perfect pitch and his brand of earworm breakup songs like "We Don't Talk Anymore," "Attention," and "That's Not How This Works," but he'll have a lot of inspiration for sappy love songs moving forward. On Sept. 7, Puth announced he's engaged to his girlfriend, Brooke Sansone.
The couple announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post featuring a gallery of photos of the pair eating at the restaurant where Puth seemed to have proposed. "I flew to New York to ask my best friend to marry me, and she said yes," Puth wrote in the captioned. "I am the happiest, best version of myself and it is all because of you Brookie. I love you endlessly forever and ever and ever." In the photos, Sasone holds a glass of wine and munches on a piece of pizza with her gorgeous teardrop diamond ring in clear view of the camera.

Every romantic comedy has its left-turn hook, right? For the new upbeat rom-com “The List,” the fishhook is the enticing but also possibly dreadful celebrity “free pass,” wherein a couple agrees that if a certain actor is on their “free pass” list, they would be able to have sex with them, no strings attached should that fantasy ever happen. But all fantasies can backfire, right? Sort of like asking your gf if you can have an open relationship, and she immediately says, “Yes!”

Chord Overstreet's love life doesn't always make headlines, but the actor has had a few high-profile relationships. The "Glee" alum had Harry Potter fans in a frenzy back in 2018 when news broke that he was dating Emma Watson. It's unclear where or when they first met, but their romance was short-lived, only lasting a few months. However, Watson isn't the only famous Emma that Overstreet has been romantically linked to.
Before Watson, Overstreet dated Emma Roberts, with whom he had an on-again-off-again romance from 2011 to 2012. Despite the two having other under-the-radar relationships, they constantly made news with their breakups and reconciliations. Watson and Roberts are the only two famous stars Overstreet has dated publicly, but the "Falling For Christmas" star has also been rumored to be linked with with folks like Lily Collins, Halston Sage, model Elsa Hosk, and "Pretty Little Liars" star Ashley Benson.
Currently, it seems Overstreet is still dating Camelia Somers.

We have movies for most of the Marvel Comics characters, don't we? Oh ... wait, no. No, it appears that we don't. There is one major character missing from the MCU, and she's pretty fabulous. People have been fan-casting this role for years, and if a movie about them ever happened, it could be really visually interesting. This is especially true if a certain director helmed a film about her.
In a recent interview with director Cameron Crowe, Rolling Stone proposed something that would be right up his alley in terms of his body of work, and now that it's been talked about, it is absolutely something that has to happen.

Given that The Quarry is the latest horror game from the brilliant minds behind the modern genre classic Until Dawn, it should come as no surprise that the game’s cast is filled with horror character tropes voiced (and often motion-captured) by a lot of familiar names.
Indeed, part of the fun of playing a game like The Quarry comes from trying to figure out where you know so many of its cast members from. While a few names will jump out at you instantly, others most certainly fall into that “Oh yeah, I know them” category.
So if you’re tired of scratching your head over who is who in The Quarry, here’s a breakdown of the game’s cast of primary characters and where you might know their actors from.
Abigail Blyg – Voiced by Ariel Winter
Abigail is a shy and occasionally awkward camp counselor who seemingly aspires to be an artist.

Having interviewed David Arquette two years ago for the release of his documentary, we were thrilled to have the opportunity to speak to the actor again, but this time, for something a little different. Arquette is one of the stars taking on a role in new interactive horror video game, developed by Supermassive and published by 2K Games, and is released on all major platforms today. We discussed his own relationship with games growing up, whether he’s competitive, and what it’s like seeing his own face in a game. He also talks about the return of Scream, and discussing the most recent sequel with fans – and we of course ask whether he may return for another….

The chances for a third season of the Prodigal Son series got a little slimmer today. HBO Max has opted not to rescue the cancelled Fox series and order a third season.
A crime thriller series, the Prodigal Son TV show stars Tom Payne, Lou Diamond Phillips, Aurora Perrineau, Frank Harts, Keiko Agena, Bellamy Young, Halston Sage, Michael Sheen, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Season two guest stars include Christian Borle and Michael Potts. In the story, Malcolm Bright (Payne) is an extraordinary criminal psychologist who knows how killers think and how their minds work. In the 1990s, his father, Dr. Martin Whitly (Sheen), was a notorious serial killer called “The Surgeon” who killed at least 23 people. Since murder is "the family business", Malcolm uses his twisted genius for good, to help the NYPD solve crimes and stop killers. He works...

“What a trip. Playing Malcolm has been a joy and a privilege. The best cast on network TV and the most unique show around,” wrote lead actor Tom Payne. We did it in style. Love to everyone who enjoyed it all along with us. And check out the last to eps! They Are Amazing.”
Prodigal Son, produced by Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television and Fox Entertainment, follows Malcolm Bright (Payne), son of Dr. Martin Whitley aka “The Surgeon” (Michael Sheen), who as a child was responsible for enabling the police to arrest his father.

Can someone start a #SaveProdigalSon campaign, please?
It was only speculation a few days ago as Fox began doling out orders for new shows, but now, our worst fears are coming to fruition.
Prodigal Son has been canceled a week before its second season finale, now the series finale.
Fans of the show know what a mistake this is, but outlets report that the ratings didn't justify a third season.
So, while I'd like to place all of the blame at Fox's feet, ratings do still matter, and waiting for an entire season to air before watching great television doesn't do anybody any favors -- least of all, the shows themselves.
Tom Payne's Malcolm Bright has been just that -- a bright spot on what can feel like a very blase broadcast special these days.

Fox has opted not to renew drama Prodigal Son for a third season. It is unclear yet whether leading studio Warner Bros TV would be shopping the series elsewhere. Sibling streamer HBO Max, which has previous seasons of Prodigal Son, would be a logical destination for the serialized serial killer drama.
Sophomore Prodigal Son, co-produced by Fox Entertainment, was a true bubble show. It was the last Fox drama to get a renewal last year, a move that didn’t come until after the upfronts, and it came down to the wire again for the series. It was liked creatively at the network, and there was a will to try and find a path to bring the series back, with various scenarios explored.
Its linear ratings were pretty modest — Prodigal Son was the lowest-rated among the current Fox drama series — but it has been doing well in digital viewing. The remaining three Fox drama series,...
