Ruby Franke, the YouTube mom vlogger who had millions of followers but was sentenced to years in prison for child abuse, is to be the subject of another docuseries.
Investigation Discovery is launching Ruby & Jodi: A Cult of Sin and Influence, a four-part series that explores the relationship between Franke and “rogue therapist” Jodi Hildebrandt.
Last February, Franke was sentenced to at least four years in prison, but which could be as much as 60 years, for child abuse. She appeared in court alongside her former business partner Jodi Hildebrandt, who received a similar sentence, after the Utah prosecutor said that two of Franke’s children – aged nine and 11 at the time – lived in a “concentration camp-like setting”. The women were arrested in August 2023 after Franke’s malnourished 12-year-old son climbed out of a window at Hildebrandt’s house in Ivins, Utah, and ran to a neighbor’s house in search of food and water.

Hulu always has quite a catalog of movies and television shows for its subscribers to choose from, and next month is no different for the streaming service. With plenty of Hulu originals slated for release, the platform will have plenty for viewers to enjoy over the coming weeks, especially for fans of unscripted series.
While most of the shows scheduled to hit the platform will be docuseries, there are still a couple of scripted shows viewers are sure to love. That being said, a lot of docuseries are headed to the streaming platform in February, which might not be everyone’s cup of tea. Nonetheless, audiences are bound to find something worth watching on Hulu next month.

As January wraps up, Hulu is keeping the momentum going with an impressive lineup of new titles next month. Whether you’re into movies, TV shows, or both, there’s plenty to keep you entertained throughout February.
Hulu is starting strong with over 60 new titles arriving on February 1 alone. Some standout additions include Kill Bill Vol. 1 and Kill Bill Vol. 2, as well as all four seasons of the classic ’90s drama New York Undercover.
Reality TV fans will also have something to look forward to with the season six premiere of The Kardashians.
But as exciting as the new arrivals are, there’s always the bittersweet reality that some beloved titles are leaving. In February, Hulu will only be removing movies, so TV lovers can breathe easy. However, the list of departing films includes some good titles, like Titane (2021) and Spencer (2021), which earned Kristen Stewart an Oscar nomination.
