Extension summary

Simply navigate to the desired site/channel/show/user and click the extension icon to get a random piece of content from its archive.

Note: I make no claims that it'll work for every news site/blog/webcomic. During testing the success rate has been ~80% — it succeeds unless my rules break down due to inconsistent URL & archive formatting (did you know the internet is quite varied?).

It would be amazing if it could choose a random episode from a series on hulu.

I found this very useful when wanting to listen to a random song from a YouTube channel, and also when browsing a new webcomic I can use it to go to a random page and see a more general view of what the webcomic would be like. Basically, this is a very cool extension, its uses might be a bit miscellaneous but it's personally been very useful to me. Good job dev, you're awesome.
