It’s the most wonderful time of the year – for a movie buff. It’s Oscar season.

The 85th Annual Academy Awards will take place this Sunday, February 24th on ABC. Live coverage starts at 6pm Central on the red carpet, with the awards show starting at 7pm CST. Seth MacFarlane, beloved creator of Ted and Family Guy, will take a stab at his first time hosting the Oscars.
