HOW’S IT WORK?

This Sunday around 8EST/5PST, go to GiveHerABreak.org and use your ABC or cable credentials to stream the Oscars through our portal like you normally would. When an ad comes on, it’ll flip the channel to show you trailers from female-directed films instead. When the show comes back— it’ll flip back to ABC.

COULD YOU BREAK IT DOWN FOR ME?

1. On Feb 9, go to giveherabreak.org

2. Log in with your ABC / cable credentials on our site (like you normally would)

3. Watch the Oscars

4. During commercials, we’ll flip to YouTube trailers of female-directed films. When the show resumes, we’ll flip back.

WHEN DOES THE SITE ACTIVATE?

On Sunday, Feb 9 8EST/5EST (when The Academy Awards begins) is when the ad breaks will be fair game. But to get you set up before the start of the show, the page will become active 15 minutes prior.

DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS?

Nope, as long as you have your cable/ABC credentials.

WHAT DO I DO IF I DON’T HAVE AN ABC / CABLE LOGIN?

You can sign-up for their free trial. Or watch with a friend who’s got the hook-up.

ARE YOU MAKING MONEY FROM THIS?

Nope. We’re actually losing money. Not the best business decision on our end...

IS THIS LEGAL?

Yes. We don’t own or alter any of the content, we just help you flip between the ABC feed and trailers on Youtube.

DOES IT WORK ON MOBILE?

The best experience is on desktop, through most newer browsers. Unfortunately, the tech will not work via mobile devices.

WILL IT WORK WITH MY CHROMECAST / APPLETV / ETC?

Yes, but you have to cast/project our website page.

WILL IT WORK ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD?

Unfortunately, it only works where ABC live streaming is available, and that's no where outside of the United States.
