New On Hulu The Week Of August 28: The Croods: Family Tree Complete Season 4, FX’s The Patient Limited Series Premiere, And More

Closing out the month of August on Hulu are two very different options of entertainment. For the kids, another Dreamworks favorite has returned in the complete Season 4 of The Croods: Family Tree. And while Steve Carell has been entertaining families with his role in Minions: The Rise of Gru, The Patient is an FX series that pits him against a subtly twisted Domnhall Gleeson. So maybe watch that one when the kids are asleep? 

FX's The Patient: Limited Series Premiere - 8/30/22

August 2022 has a lot to offer fans of the Hulu library. The first two Despicable Me movies will be joining this lineup, so the youngsters can get their Steve Carell fix after all! Not to mention there’s other titles we didn’t even get to mention, like The Blair Witch Project or the trivia-rich Tom Hanks movie Cast Away

Be sure to check this lineup carefully and often, as titles are subject to change and availability. Otherwise, that wraps the festivities for this month, and we’ll see you back here around this time in August, to dive into what September 2022 has in store!
