For the love of Maddie Hayes, look what’s coming to Hulu: For the very first time, all 67 episodes of Moonlighting will be available to stream on the platform beginning October 10.
Hulu promises that each episode of the 1980s comedy starring Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd has been remastered in HD from the original film source. It even will feature the original Grammy-nominated title track recording from Al Jarreau.
The fact that Moonlighting landed at Hulu isn’t exactly a surprise. In October 2022, Creator Glenn Gordon Caron teased some kind of Moonlighting return on Twitter. “Disney and I have put our heads together and come up with a plan,” he wrote.
Speculation immediately centered on either Disney+ or Hulu picking up the episodes from the popular 1985-89s ABC show. But there was a catch: music rights. The series leaned heavily on hits from multiple decades.
Apparently, that’s water under the bridge now. Anyone with a Hulu subscription can soon enjoy the tale of broke fashion model named Maddie Hayes (Shepherd), who gets heavily involved in a detective agency that she owns that also happens to employ a smart alecky P.I. named David Addison Jr. (Willis).

Sexual tension ensues. So did the backstage drama.
Moonlighting lasted for five seasons before the tales of tension between the two stars got to be too much. Shepherd’s pregnancy leave also impacted production, as did Willis’ hunger to become a blockbuster movie star. His big-screen breakout came with 1988’s Die Hard, which was released ahead of the series’ final season.
