Television's biggest night will be hosted by late night comedian Jimmy Kimmel. If you're one of millions of TV fans without a cable subscription—or an old-fashioned television set—here's how you can see who wins live. The pre-show red carpet arrivals and coverage begin at 4:30 p.m. ET on E!, while ABC's own red carpet special begins at 6:30 p.m. ET. [TV Guide](http://www.tvguide.com/news/emmy-awards-2016-how-to-watch/) reports that you can watch the coverage live on [CBS News](http://www.cbsnews.com/live/). ***Read Next: [Here’s How Much TV Actors, Actresses, & Other Professionals Earn](https://money.com/emmys-2016-television-salaries/)*** The ceremony airs on ABC. So if you have a subscription, you can watch on ABC.com or via the ABC app. If you don't have a cable subscription, your best option is to watch via Sling TV. As we've written about previously, Sling is a $20-per-month subscription that includes access to shows on ESPN, CNN, Comedy Central, and many other channels. For an additional $5, you can get access to ABC in certain markets, including Houston, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, Raleigh-Durham, and San Francisco. Another option is to invest in a digital TV antennae, since ABC is a broadcast station. Money has recommended the [$37 Mohu Leaf](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004QK7HI8/?timecom-20) in the past. Otherwise, the show will be available on-demand on Monday. ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://money.com/2016-emmy-awards-watch-online/#breadcrumb", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://money.com" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Lifestyle", "item": "https://money.com/lifestyle/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "TV", "item": "https://money.com/tv/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "How to Watch the 2016 Emmy Awards Online" } ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://money.com/#website", "url": "https://money.com", "name": "Money", "publisher": { "@id": "https://money.com/#organization" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://money.com/2016-emmy-awards-watch-online/#webpage", "url": "https://money.com/2016-emmy-awards-watch-online/", "name": "How to Watch the 2016 Emmy Awards Online", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://money.com/#website" }, "datePublished": "2016-09-16T18:32:09.000Z", "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://money.com/2016-emmy-awards-watch-online/" }, "inLanguage": "en-US", "breadcrumb": { "@id": "https://money.com/2016-emmy-awards-watch-online/#breadcrumb" }, "dateModified": "2024-04-17T03:44:51.000Z" }, { "@type": "Article", "headline": "How to Watch the 2016 Emmy Awards Online", "articleSection": "Lifestyle", "image": [ { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.money.com/2016/09/160916_em_emmysfree.jpg", "width": 2100, "height": 1400, "caption": "160916_EM_EmmysFree" } ], "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Alicia Adamczyk", "url": "https://money.com/author/alicia-adamczyk/", "@id": "https://money.com/author/alicia-adamczyk/#author", "image": "https://img.money.com/2016/01/alicia-headshot-2.jpg?quality=85&w=640&h=640&crop=1", "email": "alicia.adamczyk@moneymail.com", "sameAs": [ "https://x.com/aliciaadamczyk" ] } ], "publisher": "https://money.com/#organization", "datePublished": "2016-09-16T18:32:09.000Z", "description": "The 68th Emmy Awards, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel on ABC, air September 18.
