Echoing the Oscars, there will not be a host for the ceremony this year. But with celebs in attendance like Jennifer Lopez, Sterling K. Brown, Helena Bonham Carter, and Leonardo DiCaprio, it’s safe to say our attention would have been elsewhere regardless.

As we anticipate the big night, and look out for some of our entertainment favorites like Little Women, The Crown , and Big Little Lies, here’s exactly how you can watch the show and not miss out on a second of the star-studded night.

How can I watch the SAG Awards?

If you don’t have the option of watching on an actual television, but you still have cable, you can stream using both networks’ websites and mobile apps. You’ll just need your cable provider’s online streaming service log-in information.

What if I don’t have cable?

If you have Apple TV, Roku, or Amazon Fire you’re in luck. You’ll be able to watch the live SAG Awards using these streaming apps. Both YouTube and Hulu’s live streaming services also offer access to TNT and TBS.
