Watch on DIRECTV
CBS is a local station, so its channel number depends on your market. Check your own guide and make sure your current package includes the local CBS affiliate. The network's ET/PT schedule does not replace the listing for your local feed.
Search for the complete program title when setting a recording. Review the recording before the broadcast and allow extra time if you want to avoid losing the end. App viewing depends on your eligible subscription, local station, device and viewing rights.
Streaming and event details
Check current CBS and Paramount+ listings for the applicable live or on-demand option and plan requirements. Do not assume that all streaming plans provide the same local live feed or that a next-day replay is guaranteed.
This guide does not carry forward a previous year's host, nominees or winners as the 2026 lineup. Check the program listing nearer the broadcast for announcements and schedule changes.
