The 88th Academy Awards are tonight at 8:30 p.m. EST/7:30 p.m. CST/5:30 PST on ABC. Host Chris Rock returns a second time to lead the ceremony (he last hosted in 2005). Will you be watching? Some people only watch for the dresses and red carpet. Others are very interested in the acting and art of film. Either way, there will be something talk about when it’s all over. Remember this from last year?
