MUMBAI: Hulu has obtained exclusive rights to stream full series from Viacom, including Daria, Nathan for You, My Super Sweet 16 and The New Edition Story. The company will gain the rights to 20 films, including School of Rock.

According to the reports, the agreement includes content from Nickelodeon as well, like Nick Cannon's musical show Make It Pop, animated programs Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness and Penguins of Madagascar.

Hulu, co-owned by Comcast, Disney, Fox and Time Warner, said earlier that it is parting ways with chief content officer Joel Stillerman, as well as senior VP of experience, Ben Smith and a senior VP in partnerships and distribution Tim Connolly.

A combined technology and product group that will report to new CTO Dan Phillips, formerly COO at TiVo is being created by the company. That organisation will span engineering, data centre operations, network and broadcast operations centres, information technology and program management, as well as product management, user experience and product development.
