Oscar Shorts: Now Available On Demand

The short films are a fun category at the Oscars, but how many people really get a chance to watch them? Well, as of today, movie fans can view the nominated shorts no tuxedo required—if you’ve got cable (the fancy kind with On Demand), that is. Customers of Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Cox Communications and Bright House Networks need only press the big “On Demand” button on their remotes, and for a price between $2.99 and $5.99, they can watch all of the Academy Award nominees in both the animated and live-action categories.
