The Oscars will be host-free for the second year, as announced by ABC's Kari Burke. This follows the 2019 Oscars, which aired without a host after Kevin Hart stepped down due to backlash over past tweets. Despite the controversy, ratings increased by 12% to nearly 30 million viewers. This trend of host-free award shows is also seen in the 2019 Emmys. The 92nd Academy Awards will air on February 9th, with nominees announced on January 13th.
