How to Stream Oscars 2016 if You Don't Have Cable
• http://www.wired.comCelebrities will walk the red carpet. Commenters will ask who they are wearing. And Chris Rock, who is definitely funnier than your friends, will host. The three-hour soiree is airing on ABC this Sunday night starting at 7pm ET, and you probably want to watch (or at least have on in the background while you scroll Facebook looking for best-dressed lists).
Those of us who cut the cord might already be preparing in the days ahead by binging on Oscar nominated vids streaming online. But you might be wondering how you'll be able to watch the show come Sunday if you don't have a television or cable at home. Here's how.

The network's Oscar stream in 2015 cut multiple times to random programming. The interruptions were also compounded by network TV's characteristically slow online streaming.
