The folks over at GadgetWhore have discovered a option located deep in the advanced settings that allows you to play Hulu on your new Google TV.

"With the Chrome browser app open, click down on the optical mouse/directional pad to bring up the browser menu. You will have to scroll across to where it says “More”. Click on “More” and scroll down to “Advanced” and select “Generic” as your User Agent."

After making the setting change, Hulu streams immediately start playing with no problem (though you might want to change it back after your done so it doesn't affect the compatibility with other sites).

So far, the tweak is known to work with at least Sony's Internet TV line and should work with the Logitech Revue.
