Why should I watch Oscars 2026 for free?
TV audience figures for the Oscars have dropped massively, from 57 million viewers in the 90s to around 19 million last year. Critics claim that audiences are fed up with being lectured about how to live their lives by Hollywood stars.
But does that mean you should switch off? No. The Oscars is still the biggest awards show in showbiz and this year, a refreshing number of mainstream movies have been nominated. It's offically the peoples' Oscars once more...
Blood-sucking front-runner, Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, stormed in with a record 16 nominations.
The main cage match? Sinners vs. Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another. Marty Supreme, Frankenstein and Hamnet lurk as spoiler alerts.
Jessie Buckley is riding serious buzz for Best Actress, while Timothée Chalamet could charm voters again.
A new “Best Casting” prize joins the lineup — because even the Oscars love a good call sheet. Bottom line: expect drama, surprises… and at least one speech that runs longer than the movie.
