Update: Hulu has successfully restored their Hulu Roku Channel. If you are still seeing the old Hulu Roku Channel with the grey background updating your Roku will restore your Hulu experience.

To manually update your Roku start at the Roku home screen and select Settings. Next select System and there you will find an option to Update your Roku. Running a Roku update will restore Hulu’s Roku Channel.

This old user interface does not support live TV streaming, but you can access on-demand. If you found your Roku rolled back to the old Hulu interface, sit tight as Hulu is working on an update.

Here is what the new user interface looks like:

Update: Cord Cutters News has confirmed that the rollback breaks Hulu’s live TV service. If you subscribe to Hulu’s live TV streaming service you are not able to watch live TV after today’s update. That likely points to this being a glitch.
