Competing with the likes of Netflix and Amazon Prime, Hulu is undoubtedly one of the most popular streaming services on the planet.

Owned by The Walt Disney Company and Comcast, the affordable OTT platform is also one of the cheapest with plans starting at just $6.99 per month. Unsurprisingly, it has more than 43.8 million subscribers worldwide as of 2021.

However, Hulu users have to often face bugs and issues such as the one HBO Max users were unable to log in on iOS and some subscribers complaining that they were getting a ‘Sorry, this channel is temporarily unavailable’ error.

And according to recent reports from Hulu subscribers, it looks like Adult Swim is not working or offline for many. Subscribers say that whenever they try to watch the channel, they get an error message saying that the channel is off air.

This is really frustrating, with some Hulu users saying that this is not the first time they are facing the issue. With some reports dating back a couple of weeks, it looks like the bug is haunting people for a while now.
