watching Wild Green Yonder with a friend, me watching the movie on my Plex, them watching the version broken into episodes on Hulu.

i pulled Hulu up to make sure i stayed synced, and the Hulu version quickly pulled ahead of mine. i didn't notice a missing scene but i wasn't paying close attention to the Hulu version.

when Hulu auto-cycled to the next episode, even with outro and intro credits, it brought it back to sync with my version. we're ⅓ through episode two, and Hulu is currently 14 seconds ahead, although we started this episode synced.

I get that for broadcast, but for streaming it doesn't make any sense, it's not like ad breaks on streaming used to be the same length as on cable. on top of that, I wasn't getting ads when watching this on Hulu

Hulu is owned by broadcast networks, they could just be using the same media, pre-condensed.
