All of season 1-7 is available right now. The only catch is you can’t watch new episodes of season 8 live. However, Season 8 of The Have and Have Nots should arrive on Hulu soon. There are two options when signing up for Hulu’s on-demand streaming library. They are:

It provides access to the entire Hulu library, the on-demand Hulu feature providing various TV shows on network, cable, and all the Hulu Originals. And it’s got commercials throughout the shows. This plan also allows subscribers to receive 1-year of Hulu for the price of 10 months ($59.99) by switching to annual billing.
• Hulu – commercial-free ($12.99): For another $6 per month, you get all those movies and TV shows without commercials. (Due to network arrangements Grey’s Anatomy, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and How To Get Away With Murder will always have commercials)
