The Oscars: Air Time, Live Chat, Local Showings

The 85th annual Academy Awards will air Sunday on WJLA — and you can tune in to Patch to chat live about the Oscar winners and the red carpet. And there's still time to catch Oscar-nominated movies at an Arlington theater.

Hollywood glitz and glamour will step out to hit the red carpet Sunday night as the 85th annual Academy Awards take over Tinsel Town.

The Oscars, hosted this year by Seth MacFarlane, start with the red carpet at 7 p.m. on Rosslyn-based ABC 7 WJLA. The awards will begin immediately afterward at 8:30 p.m.
