Hulu, the major video streaming company which features major shows on prime time television, is now getting a whole new type of recognition, an Emmy award.

Hulu is getting an Emmy for their excellent commercials featuring movie stars as aliens, taking over the world with Hulu. It started with their first TV ad “World Domination” featuring Alec Baldwin during the Super Bowl earlier this year.

The advertisement really did help Hulu, they witnessed a major traffic jump and new users. After the success of their first ad, they aired another with Alec Baldwin and then several more featuring other celebrities like Seth MacFarlane and Dennis Leary.

It seems that they are really worthy of a Emmy nomination with the title “Outstanding Commercial”. The whole alien idea is just genius and they used the right celebrities for the parts. It appears that Hulu is really following through with world domination plans as they are the current number 3 web video site in the U.S. and now will have an Emmy nomination under their belt. What’s next? Bringing this streaming video service to the rest of the world? We can only hope.
