Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Everything to know about the 2021 Oscars
The awards season that never ends has finally all come down to this.
The Oscars are fast approaching, and they promise to be one for the books, for better or for worse. From the uncertainties provided by COVID-19, to the many possibilities for history to be made, Hollywood's biggest night should be anything but dull.
Will Riz Ahmed become the first Muslim man to win Best Actor? Will Anthony Hopkins become the oldest Best Actor winner ever? For just the second time in Oscars history, will a woman win Best Director?
As we prepare to find out, EW is rounding up all the information you need ahead of this year's ceremony.
When are this year's Oscars?
Held much, much later this year on account of the pandemic, the Oscars will air on Sunday, April 25. It will be televised live on ABC at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
Where are they being held?
For the first time ever, part of the annual awards show will take place at Los Angeles' historic Union Station in addition to its usual venue, the Dolby Theatre. Exact details are still to come, but a spokesperson for the Academy tells EW that the group "is determined to present an Oscars like none other, while prioritizing the public health and safety of all those who will participate." This will include the creation of an "in-person show our global audience wants to see, while adapting to the requirements of the pandemic."
How do I watch?
The easiest way to tune in is on ABC, but the ceremony will also be live-streamed for viewers living in participating markets at abc.com or with the ABC app by signing in with a participating TV provider, such as Apple TV, Roku, or Fire TV (see the full list of participating providers here). Once you've signed in, watch at abc.com/watch-live or select "live TV" in the ABC app.
