A lot happens in the week and you can’t click through everything. Here’s our pick for top social TV media links you may have missed.

1) Hulu might start running less ads. With the launch of their new mobile apps and growing subscription numbers, rumor has it that there could be less ads during your “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” binge fest. Some rumors need to be stopped: with Apple’s 30% take on in-app subscriptions, it’s not likely too happen anytime soon.

2) The NFL’s Week 5 #NameThePlay has some pretty good winners. If you’re not following the hashtag on game days, you’re missing out. The organization’s social team offers up clips of memorable plays for the week and fan’s can name them. Like the ‘Peytona 500’ for Manning’s 500th career touchdown pass. Who knew football fans could be so punny?

3) We all know that the #Gladiators are good live-tweeters but Darby Stanchfield, who plays Abby, is going for the win. If you aren’t following her on Thursdays, you’re missing out. Not only is she all over the episode before, during, and after it airs, but she does it all in CAPS LOCK and maximum emoji use. While the other actors are good at adding their two cents, Stanchfield is more hardcore than you are. She’s more hardcore than everyone.
