You need a high speed internet connection because you are 'streaming' the show. I have virtually given up watching commercial TV in favor of this site. If you have a laptop, you can watch TV in any room of the house.
You guys have given me such helpful hints, I thought I would pass one along. Check it out and enjoy!

It gets better that this....
Hulu desktop visit
http://www.hulu.com/labs/hulu-desktop. No commercials that I noticed. Just downloaded it today. m a big Leno fan. This is great. Initially I was running Boxee on an Apple TV, but this is easier. Looks good on a 24 inch monitor. I still use the dvr for sporting events and hbo on the cable tv. How is this different than the hulu.com website?
"Hulu Desktop is a lean-back viewing experience for your personal computer. It features a sleek new look that's optimized for use with standard Windows Media Center remote controls or Apple remote controls, allowing you to navigate Hulu's entire library with just six buttons. For users without remotes, the application is keyboard and mouse-enabled. Hulu Desktop is a downloadable application and will work on PCs and Macs. It will initially launch as a beta product during which we plan to gather and incorporate user feedback to improve the service."
Enjoy
