Make sure to have plenty of snacks, a few drinks in the fridge, and a warm blanket nearby, if you’re enjoying the Oscars from the comfort of your living room couch. Whether you have cable access or not, we’ve put together a list of the best ways to watch the Oscars 2022 live, and how to live stream the awards show after it airs.
How to watch the Oscars
The 2022 Oscars ceremony will be streamed live from the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles on March 27 at 8 p.m. Eastern on ABC. The 94th Academy Awards won’t have a specific host for aggressive Twitter users – Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall will co-host the ceremony.
If you already have a cable subscription that includes ABC, you can watch the 2022 Oscars on your TV, on ABC.comor through ABC app on iPhone and Android smartphones.
Audiences who often watch shows on ABC, CBS, NBC or FOX may want to consider investing around $50 in a TV Antenna receive radio channels. Subject to local availability, you may be able to stream the awards ceremony live on your ABC affiliate without any registration.
Another solid option to watch the 94th Academy Awards live presentation without cable is to use a live TV subscription service like YouTube TV, FuboTVor Hulu + Live TV. All three options offer a free trial of at least a week for new users. The standard monthly fee for YouTube TV is $65 for over 85 channels, and new members now get three introductory months for $55 per month. FuboTV has over 100 channels for $70 a month.
I would recommend Hulu + Live TV to anyone who watches a large amount of on-demand entertainment along with their live TV use. The service has about 75 channels. What Hulu + Live TV lacks in obscure channels you’ll likely never watch, it makes up for with access to Disney+, ESPN+, and ad-supported Hulu for $70 a month. For another $6 a month, you can upgrade this plan to Hulu with no ads.
An additional American Sign Language (ASL) live feed for the 94th Academy Awards will be made available on the Oscars YouTube channel.
