Paid Content is reporting that Disney could grant access to its ABC programming in exchange for equity in Hulu. The service would certainly benefit from having a show like Lost, which warrants repeat viewings to figure out what the heck just happened. There’s still no clear indication whether Disney programs like Aaron Stone would be part of the deal.

The sci-fi tinged commercials with Dushku and Alec Baldwin are part of a huge national branding campaign to make Hulu a household name. Getting the Disney empire behind Hulu would be a gigantic step in garnering that name recognition.
