Hulu - What gems have you found?
Discussion
I believe both of these shows in the first post are also available on Disney (according to google) but as I could not find specific threads for either Hulu or Disney and they where originally made for streaming on Hulu I thought I would start this thread. (maybe Hulu is not a very popular platform?)
The Old Man
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5645432/
A retired CIA agent is hunted by both the agency he once worked for and his own nightmares, when an unknown man suddenly visits him after nearly three decades
Currently enjoying season two of this great show starring Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow, good performances all round and some great action.
Grotesquerie
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31458276/
A detective and a nun investigate a series of heinous crimes that seem personal, while grappling with personal issues and uncovering a sinister web that raises more questions than answers
A recent addition (four episodes in), chasing a particularly disturbed serial killer, quite graphic murder scenes on occasion He boils a baby in a pot in the first episode

Both of these recently concluded. The Old Man a great season 2, not many shows that are as good in the second season but this is one of them, hope it continues for many more. A solid 8/10 from me.
Grotesquerie started great and was still pretty good towards the end but the last two episodes ruined it for me. Hate it when they do stuff like that (went a bit "Lost"). Based on not liking how it ended it gets heavily demoted from a 7/10 to 5.5/10 (It is not like the individual episodes where any worse just did not like how the story unfolded)
Surprised this thread was not created earlier, there is actually a ton of good stuff that where Hulu originals, to name a few -
Handmaids Tale
American Horror Stories
Nine perfect Strangers
Shogun
Only Murders In The Building
The Bear
Hit Monkey

The story of an Asian-American actor struggling against clichéd roles and stereotypes, both at work and in his personal life
Exec produced by Taika Waititi and starring Chloe Bennet
and Jimmy O Yang
Bit of a weird one, kind of like you are watching a show about somebody watching a show about their life, that person being Jimmy Yang and he seems to be saying this is what it is like being an Asian actor in Hollywood, cliches. stereotypes etc

Ted Bundy: Dialogue with the Devil
https://imdb.com/title/tt37677903/
In 1984, Ted Bundy offers to help catch the Green River Killer--launching a chilling game of cat and mouse with detective Robert Keppel. Featuring never-before-heard tapes, this is a gripping descent into one of history's darkest minds
Was pretty good, obviously a couple of very disturbed individuals but was an interesting insight in to the sort of techniques now used to catch these sort of killers that Ted Bundy helped to set up.
Not sure how true it is what the reporter guy was saying about this (one serial killer helping to catch another) but did not know this was what The Silence Of The Lambs was based on
