Hi Wayne, You are not able to skip the ads that appear on Hulu or Disney Plus. They appear like commercials would on a normal TV. While they are fewer than those you might see on traditional TV, they are a bit annoying even still. I’m fortunate that I can afford the ad free versions bundled together currently, but might change if the prices go up. HTH, Aleeha
