How to Watch America's Funniest Home Videos on Hulu in 2026: Quickstart Guide

Is America's Funniest Home Videos on Hulu?

Yes. Hulu streams America's Funniest Home Videos for viewers inside the United States, and it typically carries a rotating selection rather than the whole back catalogue. At the moment that library runs to four seasons and 68 episodes, and new episodes arrive the day after their ABC broadcast, so Hulu is the fastest way to keep up without a cable login.

Two details save confusion. The show has run for more than three decades across dozens of seasons, so if an older season is missing from Hulu it has simply cycled out of the current selection, it has not vanished from the internet for good. In the US, episodes also surface on Disney+ through the Hulu hub, on Prime Video, and on live services such as fuboTV, YouTube TV, and Philo.

Why Hulu Blocks America's Funniest Home Videos Outside the US

Hulu licenses every title for one country at a time, and this show is licensed for the United States. When you open the site, Hulu reads your IP address to decide where you are, and an address outside America returns a message that the title is not available in your region. That check runs before playback starts, so refreshing the page or reinstalling the app changes nothing.

The same rule applies to every Hulu title, which is why our guide to watching Hulu outside the US begins in the same place. The service follows the location of your connection, not your billing address or your account history. Change what the site sees, and the block disappears.

How Surfshark VPN Unlocks America's Funniest Home Videos on Hulu

A VPN routes your traffic through a server in another country, so Hulu sees the IP address of that server instead of your real one. Pick a Surfshark VPN server in the United States and the library opens as if you never left the country. The connection is encrypted, so your internet provider only sees scrambled data while you stream.

Two habits keep the stream stable across a whole season. Switch on the kill switch first, because it cuts your connection if the VPN ever drops and stops Hulu from spotting your real address mid-episode. If the region error still appears, clear your browser cookies for hulu.com and reload, since the site stores a location value from your last visit.

Where America's Funniest Home Videos Streams Around the World

Availability shifts as deals change, so treat this table as a starting point and check the show page in your own app before you commit to a service. A quick look saves you from paying for a subscription that carries everything except the show you want.

Region	Where the show streams
United States	Hulu, Disney+ (Hulu hub), Prime Video, fuboTV, YouTube TV, Philo
Canada	No Hulu, so a US server is the practical route
United Kingdom	Not on Hulu; a US Hulu connection reaches the show
Australia	No Hulu, so connect to the US for the full library
Anywhere else	A Hulu account plus a US VPN server

About America's Funniest Home Videos

The format is simple and durable: amateur videographers across America send in clips of kids, pets, and family mishaps, a studio audience picks a weekly winner, and the best moments get a cash prize. Bob Saget hosted the early years, and Alfonso Ribeiro took over in 2015, keeping the show one of ABC's longest-running primetime titles.

That longevity is the reason the series feels like comfort television to so many viewers. The submissions change every week, but the tone stays the same, which is why people revisit older seasons as readily as the new ones.

Which Devices Work With Hulu

Hulu runs on the major streaming platforms, and Surfshark VPN covers the same spread of hardware, so you rarely need to watch on a laptop. Set the VPN up on the device you actually use and the rest of the chain stays the same.

• Smart TVs from Samsung, LG, and Vizio through their built-in apps
• Fire TV Stick, Roku, Apple TV, and Android TV boxes
• iPhone, iPad, and Android phones and tablets
• Windows and macOS computers through the browser
• Game consoles such as PlayStation and Xbox

On a smart TV you cannot always install a VPN app directly, so run Surfshark VPN on your router or share a connection from a laptop, then open the Hulu app on the TV.

Wrapping Up

America's Funniest Home Videos is a Hulu exclusive for the United States, and a Surfshark VPN connection to a US server is the shortest path to it from anywhere else. Connect first, clear your cookies if the page argues, and start from your favorite season. Check your local laws and the service's Terms of Service before you stream, since rules differ by country.
