There are some adrenaline-pumping and heart-racing action shows available for streaming on Hulu. From thrilling superhero and monster hunter series to gripping crime dramas centered around the police and justice, there is a show to get your pulse racing. What’s even better is that even animated shows fall into this category on Hulu.
One of the most captivating action shows on Hulu is Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Sarah Michelle Gellar brings to life the title character, who grapples with leading a normal life but ultimately embraces her destiny as one of the fiercest and most resilient female characters on TV. Another fantastic option is Lost, which takes you on a slow-burn adventure for those who prefer to be fully immersed in a story. And if you’re a fan of animated action shows, you’ll have a blast with Naruto, Dragon Ball, or Archer.
If you have a favorite action show that you can’t get enough of, make sure to give it a shout-out to help other Hulu subscribers uncover new and exhilarating series. On the flip side, if there are action or adventure shows that just didn’t ignite your excitement, don’t hesitate to give them a thumbs-down.
