Awards season is officially coming to a close as the Oscars are officially underway. Aside from the Grammys, the coveted awards show is the can't-miss event of the season with tons of iconic red carpet moments (ahem, we're still thinking of Rihanna's baby bump at last year's show, tysm) and stunning performances lined up. Like, yes, I will be tuned in to Ryan Gosling's inaugural live performance of "I'm Just Ken."

Where to stream the 2024 Oscars

Streaming services are also an option for the big night, including Fubo, Hulu with live TV, and YouTube with Live TV. Fubo has a 7-day free trial while YouTube gives you two weeks. The catch? Make sure you cancel before then if you don't want to get the jump scare of subscription fees.

DirecTV also has a 5-day free trial that you probably haven't taken advantage of yet, and according to their ~fine print~, you should be able to cancel free of charge before your time is up:

New subscribers only. Cancel before end of 5-day trial or service renews monthly at then-prevailing rate (currently min. $79.99/mo.+ taxes), billed to your payment method on file. Returning customers who disconnected service within previous 12 months are not eligible for free trial. Modify or cancel at any time online or by calling 1-800-531-5000.
