It all came from the Fox deal when Disney bought everything except Fox News for 71 billion. They needed content for Disney+ that appealed to adults. Hulu has also been rolled out to other countries and is known as Star,why the name change? Zero clue.
That explains a lot. I have been wondering WTF that was.
They may have given us an explanation for it, but I probably ignored it. Possibly something with trademarks and copyrights.
TIL Star = Hulu. I thought it was just their more grownup-oriented channel
TIL.. I thought it was some low budget channel they'd bought the catalogue of
Haha nope!
