There's quite a few unfortunate snubs at the Academy Awards this year, including Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig not even being nominated for Barbie. But, that doesn't mean other great movies, actors, and creatives haven't gotten their earned recognition (for a full list of this year's nominees and categories, click here). And we're going to see who takes home the wins this evening!
The 96th Oscar Awards air live tonight, March 10, 2024, from the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood in Los Angeles. Late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel will be hosting for the night, as well as a number of presenters will be featured. We'll get into those below. But for now, how can you tune in so you don't miss a minute? Read on below to find out how to watch the Oscars 2024 tonight!
How to watch the Academy Awards on TV
The 2024 Oscars will air live starting at 7 p.m. ET on ABC. This year the event is starting an hour earlier than usual. The three and a half hours long ceremony will come to an end at 10:30 p.m. ET. There's a few ways to access ABC. That could be through your cable provider, as well as online sources including FuboTV, YouTube TV, and Hulu + Live TV. We shared them all below:
Platform | Prices and Packages |
|---|---|
Pro: $74.99/month | |
Entertainment: $69.99/month | |
$72.99/month | |
Live TV Only: $75.99/month | |
Orange: $40/month (does not include ABC) |
If you're a fan of American Idol, a new episode will not air this evening to make room for the event. However, Abbott Elementary season 3 will air a new episode starting at around 10:30 p.m. ET right after the Oscars. A new episode will also air in its regular time slot on Wednesday, March 13.
How to watch on streaming
Not all of us will be able to watch the awards show live. And let's face it, some of us want to skip through certain parts of it too. It's three and a half hours long! Whatever the case may be, that's why streaming saves the day. The Academy Awards 2024 will be available to stream on Hulu the next day, Monday, March 11, 2024. You won't be able to watch the ceremony live on Hulu, unless it's through Hulu + Live TV technically. But at least it will be streaming tomorrow.
If you do have a subscription to Hulu + Live TV, then the streaming service is already included in your package. However if you don't need to access ABC and just want Hulu alone, you can do so for $7.99/month with ads or $17.99/month with no ads.
How to sign up for Hulu
- Visit the Hulu sign up page
- Choose Hulu (with ads) or Hulu (no ads)
- Create an account by entering a username and a password
- Enter your chosen payment method
- Login to stream the Oscars!
Performers and presenters at Oscars 2024
I'm very excited for the performers this year! I think what's unique about the Oscars is that those who take the stage are artists performing tunes from the nominated films of that year. Two performances I'm personally very excited about is Ryan Gosling belting out "I'm Just Ken," as well as Billie Eillish taking the stage for "What Was I Made For?" We shared the full list of performers below:
