You can fullscreen Hulu onto your TV with a PlayStation 3.

How do you do that?
1. Open Internet Browser
2. Hit Triangle and Search for [hulu]
3. Go to Hulu.com (should be the first hit)
4. Click on the video you want.
5. When the page loads, hit Triangle then click on View. Then select the "maxiumum size" option.
6. Then Click on Full Screen view in the options on the Hulu page.
This should work, but I get letterboxing on the left and right sides of my HDTV. I assume this is my TV, but who knows.
[Edit: it appears that Step 5 is unnecessary.]
In my experience you have to use the game controller (rather than the remote) to hit the full screen button. Overall, I find that PlayOn gives a much better experience than the PS3 Web browser.
Awesome, thanks!

You can fullscreen Hulu onto your TV with a laptop. It's like a $5 cable.
yeah or get a mac mini and put in your tv cabinet and connect it to your LCD TV. Use a wireless mouse as a remote. You can watch Hulu, YouTube, theWB, joost, cbsnews.com/video, tv.com, wbkids.com and others this way.

Amazing isn't it. 2009 and we're finally able to watch television on a TV.
Personally, I'm still working on a way to stream internet radio out over my iPod car adapter so that I can listen to it on the radio.
