SOUNDTRACK is your one hour red carpet ride through the marvellous music of movies and television. We’ll give you the inside scoop on the songs, and feature the films and TV productions in which they were played – we’ll also where we can share the background on the songwriters, composers, producers, directors and music supervisors attached to the tunes and of course we’ll enjoy the songs themselves. And as you might imagine with hundreds of thousands of TV shows and movies made over the years, the scope for SOUNDTRACK is massive – so we’ll give each episode an area of focus and shine the spotlight on that. And now, with just days to go to Hollywood’s biggest night The Sidekick and I have reunited for our annual Special Salute to the Oscars 2026. We’ll use all the most amazing tracks from this year’s fantastic films – from standout original songs to heart string stirring scores to those next-to-perfect needle drops. Using our printable one-pager, we’ll declare who we want to win and who we think will win when the 98th Annual Academy Awards are broadcast Sunday, March 15th at 8 pm AST on CTV/Crave in Canada and ABC/Hulu south of the border.
