What Channel is the Oscars 2011 On

It’s the Oscars 2011 and I can’t wait for the “Black Swan” movie to win major awards in tonight’s show (see the time here). What TV channel is the Oscars 2011 on? The ABC Television Network has the contract to carry the annual Academy Awards presentations. ABC has been home to the Oscars for many years, having aired a total of 46 of the annual telecasts.

The new agreement for the domestic broadcasts of the Academy Awards adds six years to the existing contract, which was scheduled to expire in 2014. International rights are covered by a separate agreement with Walt Disney International which runs through 2014.

The 83rd Academy Awards, which will air live on Sunday, February 27, will be the 36th consecutive ceremony to air on ABC.
