Bruce, the NYT usually has good coverage of the Oscars. It's not the whole show, though. I usually switch between NYT and whoever's doing the broadcast Oscar coverage.

There's an antenna, sold at one time (maybe still) at Costco, where you don't need cable. You can't get all channels, of course. But it's a much cheaper alternative than cable.

Is anyone here familiar with it? I don't know what it's called.

I need to go out for a bit, but will be back later to add my 2 cents. I don't think I've seen any of the films.

I have one of those DR JEANNE - actually two antennas - for the two televisions we have that are NOT hooked to cable.

They pick up all the over air channels with a digital signal.....several different types and brands.

I think DR GINNY is going to be victorious at the Garden today.....

Work session is done, now I'm doing an errand, then I'll make some food here and prepare for our partay. Is there anywhere online I can stream the show for free?

Try ABCTV.com

Got a little nervous there towards the end...

Page 6? Really??

bk · « **Reply #158 on:** March 04, 2018, 03:47:40 PM »

I tried abc.com - in order to watch, you have to sign in with whoever your cable company is.

TCB · « **Reply #159 on:** March 04, 2018, 03:50:21 PM »

I give you almost a page and a half head start, and still we can't get past Page 6.

Where are all the predictions?

Jrand74 · « **Reply #161 on:** March 04, 2018, 03:51:14 PM »

DR GINNY I had no doubt for the second half......congrats!

How do you like it? Pros and cons, please. Under $100?

I believe the only current film I saw this year was BEAUTY AND THE BEAST.

I checked out the Red Carpet (the fashions, actually, not the carpet--that's DR Laura's domain). So far I haven't seen a single dress I like. Nor anything that really flatters the wearer. Every year I am gobsmacked. Surely better things are available.

Jeanne · « **Reply #165 on:** March 04, 2018, 03:57:42 PM »

It's a really lovely day here. Bright sun, a bit of wind, clear skies. High 50s. Very nice, IMHO.

bk · « **Reply #166 on:** March 04, 2018, 04:01:26 PM »

We need those Red Carpet reports. There is no way to stream this thing without signing up for some service - now, they all have a one month free trial but they take your cc information and I just don't trust that. A shame Netflix doesn't stream it.

bk · « **Reply #167 on:** March 04, 2018, 04:01:54 PM »

I know ABC has a YouTube channel so maybe pre-show and highlights will end up there?

Jeanne · « **Reply #168 on:** March 04, 2018, 04:03:35 PM »

I notice a couple skaters on the Red Carpet. Anyone know why? Just because they're celebrities os a different sort?

Jeanne · « **Reply #169 on:** March 04, 2018, 04:05:39 PM »

Rita Moreno is wearing the same dress she wore in 1962. I couldn't say that!

I think Allison Janney looks incredible.

Cable on my living room TV and internet are working! Still not working on the bedroom TV, so I hooked up the rabbit ears antenna there and I think the picture is better than with cable. I was able to set the DVR on the other set so I can watch what I miss tomorrow. I have a feeling I'll be asleep in about 2 hours.

Ice skaters? Maybe because of the I, TONYA.

Is stuff happening? I just got on the train at Grand Central. This puts me at home between 9:30 and 10:00.

I agree she looks great. I actually like her dress better than most of the others. But I'm still not crazy about it.

Just Red Carpet at the moment, as far as I know.

How was the show, Chas?

Page six? Really?

We need to turn this page.
