With the 97th Academy Awards unspooling in L.A. on Sunday with host Conan O'Brien, here is a handy guide of TV networks and online outlets that will show all the glitz and glamour across the globe.
The audience for the Oscar telecast on Sunday (March 2), where indie film darling Anora led with five awards, showed a slight uptick from last year, when two certified blockbusters, Oppenheimer and Barbie,
Sunday night marked Hulu’s first time airing the Oscars live. But its Academy Awards debut ended on a chaotic and frustratingly premature note.
Roughly halfway through the broadcast ( which we live-blogged with reckless abandon ), during a break between Oscars being handed out, O’Brien delivered a perfectly timed quip referencing Kendrick Lamar’s now-infamous Super Bowl LIX halftime show performance.
Early predictions for Oscars 2026 include Timothée Chalamet, Emma Stone, Dwayne Johnson, the Safdie brothers, "Wicked 2" and more.
