Holy shit - PlayOn is awesome! I'm surprised I haven't heard of it until now, but I'm in love. It's basically just an interface between web media (hulu, youtube, cnn, whatever~) and your TV media player (xbox360, ps3, wii, whatever~).
Hulu is very nice on my xbox360. There are tons of TV episodes available and only minor (15 seconds each, and only one per break) commercial breaks.

Oh yeah - it's a $40 license, but well worth it IMO for unlimited free content. There is also a free trial available.

Re: PlayOn
Does it play local content? I'm still looking for something that works really well with my DNLA TV.

Re: PlayOn
Yeah it does play local content, but it claims that that part of the program is in beta. I haven't actually used the local-file-server option (I just use WMP in Vista or uShare in Ubuntu) but I know it's there.
