Anne Hathaway and James Franco are hosting this year's Oscars, which takes place today.

The Oscars 2011 starts at 8pm ET / 5pm PT, but TV channels are offering coverage earlier than that, with some of the red carpet coverage starting at 5pm ET / 2pm PT.

Part of the Oscar experience is to see everyone arrive, who's wearing what, and who's dating who, so don't forget to tune in earlier than just the start of the ceremony.

In the U.S., ABC is broadcasting the Oscars, and in Canada, CTV is also broadcasting the ceremony.

This year, it seems as if the 'Best Picture' race will be between Tom Hooper's The King's Speech, and David Fincher's The Social Network, but as we've known before with the Oscars, it is still anyone's guess.

Full list of Oscars 2011 nominations.

Don't forget to tune in!
